FEATURED REVIEWS

Works for what I need

By ALAN C.

Great but does not work with dummy E6 to d-tap battery.

Less is more with the Action 5 monitor, our newest HDMI monitor that features a streamlined 5" touchscreen and lightweight build. At just over 0.5 lbs., Action 5 is designed for your on-the-go shoots, never weighing you or your camera down. Ideal for content creators, photographers, and budding filmmakers, this small but mighty monitor gives users access to the high-end features that have made SmallHD a go-to for filmmakers without compromising their budget.

Action 5 features 2000 nits of brightness, which allow for easy outdoor visibility, a 1000:1 contrast ratio, Rec. 709 color gamut, and multiple mounting points. The Action 5 has an HDMI 2.0 input and output and a combination battery plate that supports both Sony L-series and Canon LP-E6 batteries.

This intuitive monitor is powered by ActionOS, a simplified version of our professional-level PageOS software toolset that gives you the necessary tools for out-of-the-box usability. The ActionOS toolset is designed to be mastered in under 60 seconds. Using the touchscreen, you can easily select, adjust, and toggle between the monitor's most crucial tools, including Focus Assist, Expose Tool, and Look Tool.

Look Tool
