I remember buying this monitor a week or 2 after this review went live. It has been a rock solid monitor and really one of the best I could ask for. No major delay, easy viewing and fits in my backpack nicely. My only complaint has been the over NITS while shooting. at times it does suck having a dimmer screen but overall a fantastic entry monitor. I will be upgrading to the LUT7 from Feelworld soon since I feel after 2 years it has served its purpose greatly.
Hey, great video! I got an add from a camera shop where they offered the FEELWORLD 6PLUS 5.5" at a fine price. You gave me what I needed and I placed the order just now. :) Thanks for the review!
@@michaelkupfer3723 it's been... fine. Like, it serves the intended purpose, and I don't have any big complaints. It's easy to think of how it could be better, but I got it in large part because it was affordable, not because it's the best. So yeah, it's fine.
Haha thanks for watching! :) Also didn't realize/mention here that I think holding down the icons on the bottom of the screen for a few seconds will let you customize them. Enjoy! :)
Hey! I just tried the F6 plus on my Canon M50 Mark II but I don’t have access to the camera settings on the F6 Plus monitor (such as dual pixal autofocus, ISO, f/ etc … all the Q menu basically) Fonctions I usually can access with the touch screen on my M50 Mark II. Is there something I can do? Or is there a way to have both screens in power so I can access them both, since when I'm powering the F6Plus my camera's screen turns black. Thanks !
When we shoot in 120fps or 100fps in 1080p Can this monitor display that? I just want to see the video in the monitor without any lag or frame drop when I am shooting 100fps in 1080p Just like when we shoot in 24fps Is there any problem in the monitor when we shoot in 100fps Or it's just don't support or display 100fps at all ?
I have a nikon z6, for some reason it won't allow me to record 4k when I connect this monitor, I know my hdmi outputs 4k and I know this monitor supports 4k so i'm not sure what i'm doing wrong, can someone help please!🙏🏾
I only need to us this for photography stills so I need the ability to match the image on the back of my Canon EOS R. How does it perform in that area? Is it the same brightness as the LCD on the back of the camera?
I had good enough experience with it myself, but you can tweak the colors and contrast if you need to match it. I honestly can't say for sure how the brightness compares the the EOS-R LCD because I never paid too much attention to it (I don't remember what the brightness settings on my LCD actually are at the moment either). I want to say it's a little bit brighter but I'm really not sure.
Hello I’ve had no problem in the beginning with the f6 plus but then after awhile I keep getting no signal on the screen it powers up fine an the touch screen works fine but no matter what I do I can’t get anything to come up on the monitor
I bought this monitor based on your review and it is excellent. It's hard to believe what you get for the money considering the high quality screen. For UK people, you can grab a bargain on eBay - I got mine for around £134 from China (which means you don't have to pay import tax!).

What is the format of the HDMI out? It may be too high of a resolution/frame rate for it to work with the monitor, so you can switch to auto or 1080p/30 over HDMI for example and that should help

Does the software menu on the monitor byline those on the camera itself? What if my camera doesn't support some of the features (probably not)? I am using a GH5. Thanks.
The features built into the monitor are independent of the camera, so no worries. That's what's great about it for cameras that don't have focus/exposure assist features built in :)
Hi! I think people use a variety of LUTs so it would be whichever you prefer to use. Typically, you'd use the same LUT you plan to use in post production, so you can get an accurate preview while filming.
Hi Scott, Can you add guide lines for viewing on the monitor to check horizontal / verticals? I use the on camera ones for this while doing architectural photography
The monitor doesn't record so you're all set... even if you're recording in 4K on the camera you should be able to output a lower resolution or lower frame rate through HDMI to be compatible with all monitors. It does accept up to 4K 30fps though I believe.
One question, in case you are shooting on 4k 50p, does it still work? is there a way of recording with that but send a lower signal over hdmi or something? (GH5 here)
For sure :) On the GH5 it's in the Menu, [Motion Picture] > [HDMI Rec Output] > [Down Convert] and you can choose the output you need to work with the monitor.
@@dracarin Haha yeah, somehow it seems like most monitors come with mini/micro HDMI cables included unfortunately. Anyway, enjoy it! And thanks for watching/subbing!
@@dracarin Make sure to update the firmware too by the way, if the model you get is not yet updated... they added waveforms and some other nice touches :)
@@ScottDumas I will, thanks for the reminder. On the way I'll also find how to change gimbal settings to get slower smother start and stops on the movement dial (zhyun crane plus, already ordered a dual grip to mount this monitor)
If the camera doesn’t put out a compatible signal over HDMI in certain modes that’s the camera’s problem, which unfortunately does exist with some Nikon cameras I think (if my memory is correct)
Can you please tell me why the huge difference in price according to the links you provided? I followed the links and AliExpress has it listed considerably lower than the others. Is it the same item as the others? Is there something missing?
No problem with the A7SIII, and I'd say the F6 plus is a bit better than the f5 Pro unless you need the battery output/mount on the back of the F5 Pro (although I think they recently released an updated/higher end version of that monitor design too- in that case, I'd recommend that instead if you like the battery mount design)
If the color looks different it could be for a couple reasons. If you're recording in LOG and the camera doesn't output the preview LUT, that could be why... but most likely the monitor just needs to be calibrated and you can adjust the RGB, contrast saturation etc in the menu to match what you see on your camera.
I'm unable to get 4K 60p connection between this monitor and the GH5. Is it just my HDMI cable or can anyone confirm if it should/shouldn't work? Most other modes display fine.
It will only work with 4K up to 30fps. You should be able to set the HDMI output to a lower resolution or frame rate even if you're recording in 4K/60 and that will solve the problem :)
It may depend on the camera... mirrorless cameras usually have no problem but DSLRs might automatically shut off the screen when using the HDMI output.
I like the monitor but LUTs doesn’t load. It keeps on saying access fail once I tap load LUTs. Anyone got the same problem? If you found the solution please hit me up.
Hi, awesome review. Do you know if it is any way to display the ISO/aperture, etc, just like in the camera? I know that I can't change anything from the monitor but I would like to see with what iso I'm working on and that stuff... any help would be appreciated it.
Hi! I think for the most part that will depend on the camera you're using. Some can output that display info over HDMI and some cannot. It should be an option in your camera's HDMI output menu settings if it is possible. Hope that helps! :)
Great video. I have one one of these monitors now but for some reason it only displays in 1080i and it doesn’t fill my screen completely. Can anyone assist? Thanks!
Hi! I have a question, when I connect my Sony a7III in 4K film with the monitor I lose the signal in the monitor, but when I change to full hd I can see the image in the monitor while I’m filming, but in 4K I can’t. Do you know if I can change some settings? Thanks
I haven't used the camera myself but it seems like a certain combination of settings can cause that. This might help: www.sony.com/electronics/support/articles/00120915
Hi, nice video, i've pick one, but does anybody knows how to add luts on a sd card please ? it says " access fail " when I try with luts inside sd cart 64gb sandisk and my luts are .cube
If the card is formatted correctly it may be an issue with too large of a card size. I'm not sure about this one but sometimes things like firmware updates and simple things like adding luts actually can only work with smaller than 32gb cards, for example. Another guess could be if the file names are too long or contain any strange characters ...that didn't give me any issues but it could be worth trying to change if you don't find any other solution like a smaller sized properly formatted card.
Unfortunately not, the only connection is HDMI and that won't send any commands like that. For camera control, Portkeys is your best bet at the moment.
The current marketing is saying there IS waveform. Have you found this in new firmware etc? Also...500 nits is low...is this an issue for you with all the 2000 nit monitors coming out? Also the quick option (swipe up) are able to be changed in situ with a long press, apparently.
Yeah the waveforms were just added very very recently. I haven't updated my firmware yet because I need to get access to a PC to correctly format my SD card haha. 500 nit is totally fine indoors of course so I only find it to be a limitation when filming in more challenging outdoor situations. The upside is that you get much better battery life than the 2000 nit monitors :) Also noticed the long press option after this video... will have to make an update once I get that firmware to show the waveforms and touch to customize options :)
so applying the luts in the monitor shows you what you can do after uploading it to the pc?I hate filming with my D750 and the flat log is not good to play with in hitfilm express even with some luts I downloaded!
Having the lut in the monitor lets you preview how the footage will look. You can load whichever lut you typically use in post- makes it easier to judge things like exposure by eye sometimes and just have a better idea of what it will finally look like. It's good for other people watching too since they might not know about LOG footage, and it will also help with focus assist features like peaking since that's contrast based.
Also Been, remember that you are getting highly compressed files from the D750. The work that you want to be doing in post is going to be very (very) minima. I used to shoot the D750 for video (still use it for my portraiture work) before upgrading to the bmmcc and p4k, a hack I used to use was shooting CineFlat + a polariser (to add back some colour and contrast) exposing to the right ofc. Then is post, just massing with the exposure, saturation and some split toning, which is a perfect workflow for Nikons imo. Try it out and see if it works for you, maybe tweak it a bit to your liking. I think Nikon footage doesn't hold up well when placed under heavy post work, remember that's not what they are designed for. Photography first, film second. We have to play to its weaknesses not try to make it its strength
I was set on the PortKeys BM5 for my Sony a6500 but it's confusing on what camera controls are compatible for Sony. With that said, do you think twice as much cost is worth it over this one? I guess the biggest drawback with this is the low number of nits....500 is very low.
The portkeys overall does feel a bit more professional with things like waveforms and vectorscopes, plus an incredibly durable build quality. Super bright is nice too and SDI in/out can be very helpful for certain users and situations. Basically though, the BM5 is my favorite monitor but if you don't need all that, it's not worth the price for just the brightness alone.
Scott Dumas it doesn’t. Canon rebel sl1 The weird thing is that when I hit the playback button to watch videos, it fits perfectly, but when I want to record the black trim is back. So frustrating. It arrived today. Should I return it?
@@B0TELL Ok, with the SL1, it's just how the camera outputs video over HDMI (there's always going to be that black frame, not a problem with the monitor). I think there should be a way to scale it up a bit to fill the screen but I have to check the monitor myself to see what options there are. In any case, don't worry- it's not the monitors problem :)
+C B so the only thing I can find that I would imagine would help is the scan mode or video aspect settings. That would be true of almost all monitors I’ve seen and just an issue with the SL1 as far as I can tell
Just that if you try to output 4K/60 into the monitor it won’t work. Most cameras will still output 4K/24 or FHD over HDMI though, even recording in higher frame rates.
No worries! And not at all :) Again- your camera should be able to output a lower frame rate/resolution even while you're recording 4k/60 in camera. It's not a recorder so it doesn't make much of a difference if your HDMI output is not 60fps :) Almost all non-recorder monitors are the same anyway (only accepting up to 4k/30). This monitor should still work out for you unless your camera has an issue with the HDMI output while recording 4k/60 (very few do).
You should be able to choose to limit the HDMI output to a lower frame rate/resolution regardless of what you're recording in, and then you won't have any problems. It'll be the same with most monitors on the market.
Hi, Can you alter your dslr camera settings on this monitor rather than doing it on the camera screen itself, For example set the iso, shutter speed and aperture.....Good video....
Hi! Unfortunately this monitor does not have any communication with the camera for that kind of function. At the moment Portkeys is the main maker that has that feature, although it does seem to be coming to a couple more brands, even Godox's new monitor, surprisingly
When we shoot in 120fps or 100fps in 1080p Can this monitor display that? I just want to see the video in the monitor without any lag or frame drop when I am shooting 100fps in 1080p Just like when we shoot in 24fps Is there any problem in the monitor when we shoot in 100fps Or it's just don't support or display 100fps at all ?
@@ScottDumas There appears to be a faulty batch of monitors. After a lot of back and forth with Feelworld, they told me I would need to send it back to Hong Kong for repair (at my own expense)... What firmware version are you on?
@@haikkavookjian851 Hmm... they told me "Kindly please tell contact support@feelworld.cn to upgrade the software." ...not sure if that will help at this point though. I've been testing a bunch of monitors lately so have packed the F6 away for the moment and would have to dig it out, but I didn't upgrade it after receiving it myself.
No problem! They're very different mostly because of the recording function the Ninja V has. If you need a recorder- go for that, but to save money this monitor is also pretty nice. Brightness (not enough of it) is the main problem... the Ninja V is a little bit brighter but still not the brightest on the market- you'll want to consider that if you're using it outdoors.
Thanks for this review. It's great to see FeelWorld giving us this type of monitor at such a great price. I'm a little confused about the built-in LUTs. If the camera is recording in log, do the LUTs convert it to REC709 or REC2020? What do the SLog, LogC, etc LUTs do if the camera is already recording in log? Is the PortKeys M5 still your go-to monitor?
Thanks so much for watching :) The monitor is Rec709 and what effect the LUT has will depend on what you load in there... SLog, LogC and other luts already built in are "standard" luts for that type of log footage. So, if you're filming in SLog, for example, you could use to SLog lut to preview what the footage would look like when using that or a similar lut applied in post. The BM5 is still probably my go to monitor, at least for the E2. It's super solid, fully loaded and very bright. About double this price though. I do love my 7" HCM-700 from OSEE as well though. Another incredibly solid monitor with absolutely everything thrown in there, dual battery slots and a pretty bright display. Something like this is great for the EOS-R, for example, since it mounts so conveniently on the hot shoe. I'm actually planning on using it on my EOS-R that I have recording these videos. There are lots of good monitors out there each with their own appeal for different situations, but this is just very quick and easy to use, which I appreciate.
@@ScottDumas Thanks for this in-depth reply! This monitor has some great features. You always need more than one on set, for director/ client/ focus puller, etc. It's great to know there are high-quality, affordable options.
@@Photographicelements Haha to be honest, I'd be more interested in the Pocket 4K... definitely a steal for the price. At the price the 6K is coming in at, I'd rather get a few of the P4K cams haha. Now, if they put internal NDs into the P6K that would be a different story haha. I already have my E2-F6 pre-order in though, that thing should be a beast.
Okay did research and it cant do 4k 60fps. Any recomendation on cheaper monitors that can handle 4k 60fps? Dont really feel like spending $700 on an atmos ninja. lol
Hi Scott very informative video but I miss outdoor shooting and footage. Why is no one make outside videos with this monitor? 500 nits aren't so good . More nits has the atomos shinobi pricier
Hi! Thanks so much :) If you shoot outdoors a LOT then maybe a brighter monitor could be a better choice. Feelworld has a new one coming out, the Lut7 I think (or something like that) ...quite a full featured monitor including a bright screen and touch screen like this same menu design. If you're ok with physical buttons and their old menu system, the FW279 is brighter as well and not super expensive.
@@ScottDumas Thanks for answering I there are 7 inch monitors bright enough but 7 inch is toooooo big :) Consider next time to make outdoor tests. There arent videos out there. Keep up the good work
Hi Scott, I have the Feelworld F6 Plus; is it normal for these budget monitors to show some jitter/artifacts when panning quickly after a steady shot? I tried different HDMI cables and batteries; all with same result (small artifacts in parts of the screen, only for a few milliseconds).
Hi! That's definitely not something I've noticed happening (if what I'm imagining from your explanation is correct). I wonder if it could be more the connection than the cable?
Portkeys has some that work with some level of control but I can’t remember exactly how advanced the focus control is. I don’t think it’s as functional as the actual touch screen on the back of the camera.
Unfortunately there's no communication besides the picture via HDMI. Portkeys probably have the best selection of camera control monitors available if that's what you're looking for.
I like the OS of the F6 better, and it does feel very slightly more well made (I dropped it just yesterday from like 5 feet up onto a hard wood floor with very very thin carpet and it survived haha) ...but the a50 is a nice little monitor- I love the dual battery plates and built in foldable sun shade, makes it a very sleek little package to slide into a backpack and even 2 low profile NP-F batteries give a pretty good battery life... the touch screen interaction with the menu and custom functions could be much much better, but the upside is you get a good number of physical custom function buttons... overall it's kind of a trade off for a nice OS/good touch screen layout on the F6 or a nice full featured physical design on the A50

Just like when we shoot in 24fps
Is there any problem in the monitor when we shoot in 100fps
Or it's just don't support or display 100fps at all ?
Do you know how to add false colour in shortcut menu?
If my memory is correct, you can long hold the custom buttons to bring up the menu where you can change what they're set to.
@@ScottDumas I will give this a try, thank you...
Great review, buddy 👍
Thanks! 👍
will the 4k 50fps signal be displayed on the screen? I have a gh5 m2.
Great review. Informative and your video looks good. 👍🏼😊
Thanks so much! :)
Does the software menu on the monitor byline those on the camera itself? What if my camera doesn't support some of the features (probably not)? I am using a GH5. Thanks.
The features built into the monitor are independent of the camera, so no worries. That's what's great about it for cameras that don't have focus/exposure assist features built in :)
@@ScottDumas Thanks.
Sorry to bother, but where do you find the LUTs that are used for Sony picture profiles to install on the monitor via an SD card?
Hi! I think people use a variety of LUTs so it would be whichever you prefer to use. Typically, you'd use the same LUT you plan to use in post production, so you can get an accurate preview while filming.
Hi Scott, Can you add guide lines for viewing on the monitor to check horizontal / verticals? I use the on camera ones for this while doing architectural photography
Hi! It's been a while since I used this so I'm not 100% sure but I do believe you can have grid lines available :)
hello can i rec 4k in this monitor or this monitro cant support 4k record
The monitor doesn't record so you're all set... even if you're recording in 4K on the camera you should be able to output a lower resolution or lower frame rate through HDMI to be compatible with all monitors. It does accept up to 4K 30fps though I believe.
One question, in case you are shooting on 4k 50p, does it still work? is there a way of recording with that but send a lower signal over hdmi or something? (GH5 here)
For sure :) On the GH5 it's in the Menu, [Motion Picture] > [HDMI Rec Output] > [Down Convert] and you can choose the output you need to work with the monitor.
@@ScottDumas thanks man! Guess I found my self a new monitor. Shame it comes with a mini HDMI when it's a full HDMI on gh5. U got a new sub
@@dracarin Haha yeah, somehow it seems like most monitors come with mini/micro HDMI cables included unfortunately. Anyway, enjoy it! And thanks for watching/subbing!
@@dracarin Make sure to update the firmware too by the way, if the model you get is not yet updated... they added waveforms and some other nice touches :)
@@ScottDumas I will, thanks for the reminder. On the way I'll also find how to change gimbal settings to get slower smother start and stops on the movement dial (zhyun crane plus, already ordered a dual grip to mount this monitor)
why 1080p 120fps or 100 fps isn't supported from my Nikon Z6???
If the camera doesn’t put out a compatible signal over HDMI in certain modes that’s the camera’s problem, which unfortunately does exist with some Nikon cameras I think (if my memory is correct)
Will NP F 970 battery work with the monitor?
Can you please tell me why the huge difference in price according to the links you provided? I followed the links and AliExpress has it listed considerably lower than the others. Is it the same item as the others? Is there something missing?
Hi, am I right in thinking that you cant use the Sony a6400 touch tracking via the monitor?
Will it work with the Sony a7s3 ? And do u think the feel world f5pro is better than this ?
No problem with the A7SIII, and I'd say the F6 plus is a bit better than the f5 Pro unless you need the battery output/mount on the back of the F5 Pro (although I think they recently released an updated/higher end version of that monitor design too- in that case, I'd recommend that instead if you like the battery mount design)
ist hve differnt berween monitor and the camera colour ?for the final product
If the color looks different it could be for a couple reasons. If you're recording in LOG and the camera doesn't output the preview LUT, that could be why... but most likely the monitor just needs to be calibrated and you can adjust the RGB, contrast saturation etc in the menu to match what you see on your camera.
Scott Dumas thank you
Hey man, can you change the settings of the iso, shutter and F stop from the monitor ???
Thanks
Hi! Unfortunately not, this monitor has no communication with your camera besides receiving the video signal.
Thanks 🙏🏼
I'm unable to get 4K 60p connection between this monitor and the GH5. Is it just my HDMI cable or can anyone confirm if it should/shouldn't work? Most other modes display fine.
It will only work with 4K up to 30fps. You should be able to set the HDMI output to a lower resolution or frame rate even if you're recording in 4K/60 and that will solve the problem :)
@@ScottDumas It did, thanks! Didn't know the 4k/30p limitation.
Hello ! Simple question : How did you get your dslr sreen ON at the same time as the monitor ? I don't find the option.
It may depend on the camera... mirrorless cameras usually have no problem but DSLRs might automatically shut off the screen when using the HDMI output.
Can you record your screen with? Like a Ninja V?
Unfortunately not, there’s no recording just monitoring
@@ScottDumas Thank you.
Hi. How do you get to see the monitor and camera screen at the same time? Once I turn the monitor on, the camera screen turns off. Thanks in advance.
Hi! I think it's just a camera thing unfortunately... some cameras will shut off the LCD while outputting over HDMI and others won't
@@ScottDumas Thank you!
Does monitor allow for touch focusing? Since you cannot use camera screen to focus with monitor connected
It can’t
When you hit record do you see a red dot in the monitor to know your recording?
Only if your camera sends that over HDMI as an on screen display.
Scott Dumas thanks it works now
I like the monitor but LUTs doesn’t load. It keeps on saying access fail once I tap load LUTs.
Anyone got the same problem? If you found the solution please hit me up.
In some cases I've seen that error with the USB/SD card isn't formatted correctly... not sure if that's the issue but that would be my first thought
Scott Dumas hey Buddy! Thanks for responding!!!! I figured it out why!!!!
+Kennex Abadia no problem, glad it’s working... was it the formatting issue?
@@KennexAbadia Awesome! Was it the formatting issue?
Hey Scott! It’s the kind of SD Card that I was using. It’s a compatibility issue. Fast cards doesn’t work, slow ones does
Hi, awesome review. Do you know if it is any way to display the ISO/aperture, etc, just like in the camera? I know that I can't change anything from the monitor but I would like to see with what iso I'm working on and that stuff... any help would be appreciated it.
Hi! I think for the most part that will depend on the camera you're using. Some can output that display info over HDMI and some cannot. It should be an option in your camera's HDMI output menu settings if it is possible. Hope that helps! :)
Great video. I have one one of these monitors now but for some reason it only displays in 1080i and it doesn’t fill my screen completely. Can anyone assist? Thanks!
Not sure exactly but it sounds like it might have more to do with your camera’s HDMI output settings.
Hi! I have a question, when I connect my Sony a7III in 4K film with the monitor I lose the signal in the monitor, but when I change to full hd I can see the image in the monitor while I’m filming, but in 4K I can’t. Do you know if I can change some settings? Thanks
I haven't used the camera myself but it seems like a certain combination of settings can cause that. This might help: www.sony.com/electronics/support/articles/00120915
Hi, nice video, i've pick one, but does anybody knows how to add luts on a sd card please ? it says " access fail " when I try with luts inside sd cart 64gb sandisk and my luts are .cube
If the card is formatted correctly it may be an issue with too large of a card size. I'm not sure about this one but sometimes things like firmware updates and simple things like adding luts actually can only work with smaller than 32gb cards, for example. Another guess could be if the file names are too long or contain any strange characters ...that didn't give me any issues but it could be worth trying to change if you don't find any other solution like a smaller sized properly formatted card.
Mine is showing 1080p 50hz and not 60hz like yours, why?
That would be an NTSC/PAL difference, and I believe it would depend what your camera is set to.
Scott Dumas haha, yes i noticed
Does it have touch focus ?
Does anyone know where I can download PDF manual for this monitor?
can i control the dslr camera through the monitor
Unfortunately not, the only connection is HDMI and that won't send any commands like that. For camera control, Portkeys is your best bet at the moment.
The current marketing is saying there IS waveform. Have you found this in new firmware etc? Also...500 nits is low...is this an issue for you with all the 2000 nit monitors coming out?
Also the quick option (swipe up) are able to be changed in situ with a long press, apparently.
Yeah the waveforms were just added very very recently. I haven't updated my firmware yet because I need to get access to a PC to correctly format my SD card haha. 500 nit is totally fine indoors of course so I only find it to be a limitation when filming in more challenging outdoor situations. The upside is that you get much better battery life than the 2000 nit monitors :) Also noticed the long press option after this video... will have to make an update once I get that firmware to show the waveforms and touch to customize options :)
@@ScottDumas Nice one. Loving your content, btw :)
@@creativesymon Appreciate it! :)
so applying the luts in the monitor shows you what you can do after uploading it to the pc?I hate filming with my D750 and the flat log is not good to play with in hitfilm express even with some luts I downloaded!
Having the lut in the monitor lets you preview how the footage will look. You can load whichever lut you typically use in post- makes it easier to judge things like exposure by eye sometimes and just have a better idea of what it will finally look like. It's good for other people watching too since they might not know about LOG footage, and it will also help with focus assist features like peaking since that's contrast based.
Also Been, remember that you are getting highly compressed files from the D750. The work that you want to be doing in post is going to be very (very) minima. I used to shoot the D750 for video (still use it for my portraiture work) before upgrading to the bmmcc and p4k, a hack I used to use was shooting CineFlat + a polariser (to add back some colour and contrast) exposing to the right ofc. Then is post, just massing with the exposure, saturation and some split toning, which is a perfect workflow for Nikons imo. Try it out and see if it works for you, maybe tweak it a bit to your liking. I think Nikon footage doesn't hold up well when placed under heavy post work, remember that's not what they are designed for. Photography first, film second. We have to play to its weaknesses not try to make it its strength
When I shoot in 4K with my sony the monitor cropped. Did anyone notice it.
That's probably a limitation or setting of your camera, not the monitor. Check your HDMI output settings in the menu.
@@ScottDumas I've solved it. You have to reset the factory setting. Thanks for your reply.
I was set on the PortKeys BM5 for my Sony a6500 but it's confusing on what camera controls are compatible for Sony.
With that said, do you think twice as much cost is worth it over this one? I guess the biggest drawback with this is the low number of nits....500 is very low.
The portkeys overall does feel a bit more professional with things like waveforms and vectorscopes, plus an incredibly durable build quality. Super bright is nice too and SDI in/out can be very helpful for certain users and situations. Basically though, the BM5 is my favorite monitor but if you don't need all that, it's not worth the price for just the brightness alone.
Mine does not go full screen when I plug it. I tried everything and it does not work. I don’t know what do I have to do???
I can't remember exactly without looking but would underscan or overscan be able to fix it? What camera are you using it with?
Scott Dumas it doesn’t. Canon rebel sl1
The weird thing is that when I hit the playback button to watch videos, it fits perfectly, but when I want to record the black trim is back. So frustrating. It arrived today. Should I return it?
@@B0TELL Ok, with the SL1, it's just how the camera outputs video over HDMI (there's always going to be that black frame, not a problem with the monitor). I think there should be a way to scale it up a bit to fill the screen but I have to check the monitor myself to see what options there are. In any case, don't worry- it's not the monitors problem :)
+C B so the only thing I can find that I would imagine would help is the scan mode or video aspect settings. That would be true of almost all monitors I’ve seen and just an issue with the SL1 as far as I can tell
Scott Dumas thank you so much for your help
can i use this on my smart phone?
It only has HDMI connections so you'd need some sort of adapter, although I've never tried it myself.
might be a stupid question. But what does it mean that there is no 4k60p support?
Just that if you try to output 4K/60 into the monitor it won’t work. Most cameras will still output 4K/24 or FHD over HDMI though, even recording in higher frame rates.
@@ScottDumas i shoot most of the stuff in 4k 60 so its useless then to buy this monitor which doesnt support it? Sorry another stupid question 🤣
No worries! And not at all :) Again- your camera should be able to output a lower frame rate/resolution even while you're recording 4k/60 in camera. It's not a recorder so it doesn't make much of a difference if your HDMI output is not 60fps :) Almost all non-recorder monitors are the same anyway (only accepting up to 4k/30). This monitor should still work out for you unless your camera has an issue with the HDMI output while recording 4k/60 (very few do).
Double tap quick on the shortcuts and then you can change them to what ever you want them to be. Very simple
+Anywhere Near Zero OFFICIAL oh damn, perfect! Thanks for letting me know! :)
I've heard, on the GH5 this gives black screen on anything but 60 FPS. This true?
You should be able to choose to limit the HDMI output to a lower frame rate/resolution regardless of what you're recording in, and then you won't have any problems. It'll be the same with most monitors on the market.
This helped me a lot! Thank you!!
Glad it helped!
hello mate i just bought F6 plus and on monitor when i double click is showing 1080p 60Hz . is that correct?
Hi! That should be ok, it's just the signal that your camera is sending via HDMI and not related to what you're actually recording in :)
@@ScottDumas thanks for the answer
Hi, Can you alter your dslr camera settings on this monitor rather than doing it on the camera screen itself, For example set the iso, shutter speed and aperture.....Good video....
Hi! Unfortunately this monitor does not have any communication with the camera for that kind of function. At the moment Portkeys is the main maker that has that feature, although it does seem to be coming to a couple more brands, even Godox's new monitor, surprisingly
@@ScottDumas Many thanks for the info..Take Care...
Sorry if this has been asked. What’s the battery life with an LP-E6 battery?
When we shoot in 120fps or 100fps in 1080p
Can this monitor display that?
I just want to see the video in the monitor without any lag or frame drop when I am shooting 100fps in 1080p

Hi there when i import llut was access fail how can i solve it ?
My first guess would be the card's format. I think it should be exFAT but I can't remember for sure.
@@leonartmusicvideo Is the card format the issue?
@@leonartmusicvideo Hmm... I'll have to see if I can find more info from Feelworld
@@ScottDumas There appears to be a faulty batch of monitors. After a lot of back and forth with Feelworld, they told me I would need to send it back to Hong Kong for repair (at my own expense)... What firmware version are you on?
@@haikkavookjian851 Hmm... they told me "Kindly please tell contact support@feelworld.cn to upgrade the software." ...not sure if that will help at this point though. I've been testing a bunch of monitors lately so have packed the F6 away for the moment and would have to dig it out, but I didn't upgrade it after receiving it myself.
Is this an option vs the Atomos Ninja V or completely different? Sorry I AM NEWB
No problem! They're very different mostly because of the recording function the Ninja V has. If you need a recorder- go for that, but to save money this monitor is also pretty nice. Brightness (not enough of it) is the main problem... the Ninja V is a little bit brighter but still not the brightest on the market- you'll want to consider that if you're using it outdoors.
Could I use this with the Original Black magic Pocket cinema camera 1080 p
I believe it should! :)
@@ScottDumas awesome!
Thanks for this review. It's great to see FeelWorld giving us this type of monitor at such a great price.
I'm a little confused about the built-in LUTs. If the camera is recording in log, do the LUTs convert it to REC709 or REC2020? What do the SLog, LogC, etc LUTs do if the camera is already recording in log?
Is the PortKeys M5 still your go-to monitor?
Thanks so much for watching :) The monitor is Rec709 and what effect the LUT has will depend on what you load in there... SLog, LogC and other luts already built in are "standard" luts for that type of log footage. So, if you're filming in SLog, for example, you could use to SLog lut to preview what the footage would look like when using that or a similar lut applied in post.
The BM5 is still probably my go to monitor, at least for the E2. It's super solid, fully loaded and very bright. About double this price though. I do love my 7" HCM-700 from OSEE as well though. Another incredibly solid monitor with absolutely everything thrown in there, dual battery slots and a pretty bright display.
Something like this is great for the EOS-R, for example, since it mounts so conveniently on the hot shoe. I'm actually planning on using it on my EOS-R that I have recording these videos. There are lots of good monitors out there each with their own appeal for different situations, but this is just very quick and easy to use, which I appreciate.
@@ScottDumas Are you thinking about the Pocket6k? I know you are.. I think the S6 has a greater dynamic range tho.
@@ScottDumas Thanks for this in-depth reply! This monitor has some great features. You always need more than one on set, for director/ client/ focus puller, etc. It's great to know there are high-quality, affordable options.
@@Photographicelements Haha to be honest, I'd be more interested in the Pocket 4K... definitely a steal for the price. At the price the 6K is coming in at, I'd rather get a few of the P4K cams haha. Now, if they put internal NDs into the P6K that would be a different story haha. I already have my E2-F6 pre-order in though, that thing should be a beast.
@@ScottDumas
If i filming Slog from my body , how does it work on monitor when applied the luts ?
How accurate is the screen color straight out of the box?
For me it seemed pretty accurate- not off enough to make me want to adjust it really. I didn't check overly carefully but that's because it felt fine.
Did he say input only supports up to 4K 30fps? I shoot alot of 4k 60fps on my fuji film xt3. Should i not get this? Thank you
Okay did research and it cant do 4k 60fps. Any recomendation on cheaper monitors that can handle 4k 60fps? Dont really feel like spending $700 on an atmos ninja. lol
With the xt3 you can choose to output 1080p over HDMI even when recording to cards in 4K, so you shouldn't have a problem :)
@@ScottDumas helps a lot
Hi Scott very informative video but I miss outdoor shooting and footage. Why is no one make outside videos with this monitor? 500 nits aren't so good . More nits has the atomos shinobi pricier
Hi! Thanks so much :) If you shoot outdoors a LOT then maybe a brighter monitor could be a better choice. Feelworld has a new one coming out, the Lut7 I think (or something like that) ...quite a full featured monitor including a bright screen and touch screen like this same menu design. If you're ok with physical buttons and their old menu system, the FW279 is brighter as well and not super expensive.
@@ScottDumas Thanks for answering I there are 7 inch monitors bright enough but 7 inch is toooooo big :) Consider next time to make outdoor tests. There arent videos out there. Keep up the good work
@@vasiliosm Will do- it's hard to show on camera how bright it is to the eye, but I'll be sure to at least mention it :)
is there better lag times out there in this price range? i don't own an ext filed monitor yet and really need one soon!!
This was about the same as most I've tried :)
@@ScottDumas i saw it is 500nit and the Shinobi is 1000nit. ordered the F6 so it's comin in either way! hah
Are the wires that come with it compatible with a7iii?
I believe it's a micro HDMI that was included and that is the connection on the a7iii (I think) so it should be good!
Hi Scott, I have the Feelworld F6 Plus; is it normal for these budget monitors to show some jitter/artifacts when panning quickly after a steady shot? I tried different HDMI cables and batteries; all with same result (small artifacts in parts of the screen, only for a few milliseconds).
Hi! That's definitely not something I've noticed happening (if what I'm imagining from your explanation is correct). I wonder if it could be more the connection than the cable?
@@ScottDumas Hmm Thanks Scott. Will contact Feelworld :)
Found out it is only present at PAL setting on 25 fps.
can you advice on a monitor featuring touch-screen focus, coupled with Canon 5D Mark IV? Thanks a lot
Portkeys has some that work with some level of control but I can’t remember exactly how advanced the focus control is. I don’t think it’s as functional as the actual touch screen on the back of the camera.
can you have access to the camera menu trough this monitor?
Unfortunately there's no communication besides the picture via HDMI. Portkeys probably have the best selection of camera control monitors available if that's what you're looking for.
I watched both this review and your Fotga a50 review. Which one would you prefer? the f6 plus and a50tl are similar in price.
I like the OS of the F6 better, and it does feel very slightly more well made (I dropped it just yesterday from like 5 feet up onto a hard wood floor with very very thin carpet and it survived haha) ...but the a50 is a nice little monitor- I love the dual battery plates and built in foldable sun shade, makes it a very sleek little package to slide into a backpack and even 2 low profile NP-F batteries give a pretty good battery life... the touch screen interaction with the menu and custom functions could be much much better, but the upside is you get a good number of physical custom function buttons... overall it's kind of a trade off for a nice OS/good touch screen layout on the F6 or a nice full featured physical design on the A50
Thank you for the video. I have a question I hope you can answer. feelworld 6 can record camera screen like atomos ninja 5?
Unfortunately it can't... just a monitor not a recorder. There are only a few recorders out there and I'd love to see more!
