Questions & Answers

William G : Will the Sony CLM-V55 5" On-Camera LCD Monitor work with the NEX-6 camera?CHARLES P : It works very well with the NEX-6. Word of caution however. do not use any HDMI cables that requires an adapter for the different types of HDMI connectors. It also works with the A77, A900 and A7.
Shopper : Does this monitor include the battery, charger, and HDMI cable?GEORGE G : Includes the HDMI cable, but no battery or charger.CHARLES P : I believe there are two versions that Adorama sells. One is just the display selling for $399 and one that sells for $499 that includes everything. I have a Sony camera that uses the same battery. It is a great addition to be used with either a DSLR or a Video camera.
LESLIE D : Do either of the hot shoe mounts fit into a Sony Camcorder AIS (Active Interface Shoe)? All the ads, descriptions and videos show the monitor on Sony cameras, but not camcorders. Sony's website shows only 11 models of camcorders as compatible, but lists "Fits all camcorders." Calling Sony support, I got both answers: "Yes, it will fit." "No, it will not fit your camcorder." I have a HDR-HC9 camcorder, have ordered a bubble level that is supposed to fit a Sony camera, but none of the 3 types will fit into a camcorder AIS. How many types of hot shoe specifications are there, for Sony, for camcorders? Are they the same as for cameras?CHARLES P : It comes with both style hot shoe adapters. It will fit any standard hotshot or the "special" Sony hot shoe

Sony's CLM-V55 5" LCD Monitor gives you a much better perspective of what you're shooting than what you get through a viewfinder. Instead of squinting through the camera's tiny viewfinder use this camera-top monitor to accurately and comfortably frame your shots while smoothly following the action. Peaking support along with 800 x 480 resolution means beautifully defined images even along the edges.

Volume, brightness, contrast, color, and aspect ratio are all easily controlled according to your preference and shooting situation. The monitor is also fully adjustable for forward and backward tilt and features a headphone jack for monitoring audio levels. Power is supplied via an NP-FM500H battery and a standard HDMI interface offers ready compatibility with a wide range of cameras and camcorders.

Note: The monitor does not have DSLR scaling to re-scale the video from certain cameras during playback. Black stripes may appear above and below or on each side of the monitor when the camera's aspect ratio is different from that of the monitor.

5" LCD WVGA (800x480) for easier viewing of video & stills
The Sony CLM-V55 provides a beautiful 5-inch LCD screen for review and playback of video and still images, supporting both 16:9 and 4:3 aspect ratios. Works with any camera or camcorder that supports HDMI output.

Peaking support for precise focusing
Peaking enhances the edges of objects in the frame to allow for precise focusing. The 5" LCD makes fine adjustments much easier to see.

Tiltable up to 90 degrees with supplied adapters
The supplied adapters allow the screen to be tilted forward and backward up to 90 degrees, additionally the LCD can swivel 360 degrees for superior flexibility when monitoring your video or still images.

Headphone jack for audio monitoring
Some cameras don't always have a headphone jack for monitoring audio levels. The CLM-V55 with included headphone jack allows you to check audio signals with more clarity when shooting video.

LCD hood for viewing in bright conditions
The included LCD hood shields the LCD from bright light and the elements both extending the life of the screen and giving you a more enjoyable viewing experience.

Control Dial (Aspect Ratio, Volume, Brightness, Contrast, more)
The easy to use control dial quickly and intuitively allows for adjustment of volume, brightness, contrast, color, and aspect ratio.

Auto dimmer to conserve battery power
The Sony CLM-V55 has an auto dimmer that will dim the LCD's output after 60 seconds of non-use to conserve battery power.

Utilizes NP-FM500H battery common to many Alpha DSLRs
The LCD is powered by the same InfoLITHIUM M series battery (sold separately) that is used by many Alpha DSLR cameras for long life and high performance.

HDMI cable and shoe adapter included
An HDMI cable (mini to full) is included for easy connection to any camera with HDMI output, as well as a shoe adapter for tethering and stability.

Works with many DSLR/Camcorder manufacturers
Many of today's HD cameras support HDMI output for high definition viewing and playback. With HDMI input and the included HDMI cable, the CLM-V55 can be used with a wide range of cameras and camcorders.
