I love the way you shot this through the monitor, great way to show the responsiveness and quality.
Oddly enough, I’m currently watching tons of field monitor reviews and then you came up with this video. Thanks for letting us know about this one as well.
I was on the fence about buying this monitor because the price seemed too cheap for what it stated it offered. Thanks for easing my mind and making my choice easier. Ordered and used your link!
Thank you for detailed video and waiting very passionately for the full monitor video
Seems to be called ‘SWIT CM-55C’ here in Europe for those who wonder. Great review 😊
Truth. It's a bit more expensive (taxes), but it's amazing compared to the competition. I've been waiting for mine for over two weeks. This is how the post office works in Denmark.😤
I was literally googling if Swit and Osee are the rebrands. Thanks for the clarification 😁
Thanks. Great info. As usual we're done over on price!
Thanks - was pulling my hair out trying to find it in EU.
There’s probably an oem where everyone buys it and rebrands it….
Can't wait for the monitor comparison video 🔥
Not enough of them out there.
I love how you used the in 2:18 to explain its fesatures while still being visible yourself, all without editing! So clever! :D
You're so smooth man... Great presentation, thanks!
Thanks mate, added to my wishlist, I mainly film hobby stuff in my room and run a mini HDMI cable to the tv just so I can see focus and composition better. This will help out since it is cheap ^_^
Wonderful review and very insightful. Thank you!!
Thanks for sharing. Awesome post ! Always enjoy your educational shares.
Really appreciate how you continue to do category gear reviews every few years. Looking forward to the next monitor review.
Such a well presented and produced video! Gj
Great little monitor. Like the multiple battery option and Pages is super cool.
Perfect timing, i was just a few hours ago looking for some upgrades for my xt4 video rig. Nice videos btw love the arms set up too in ur other vids
This video is not only informative, for a dope product with dope features...
It's insanely creative how Kaleb shot it.
Bro, for quite some time now I've been browsing for a monitor but I never pulled the trigger on any of them. My money always went towards other pieces of equipment .
I rarely comment on TH-cam but today I got this monitor from amazon and I just wanted to thank you for this video and for everything else that you're doing on your channel, for that matter.
God bless you! ✌️ Thanks!
Very well done. Thanks, Caleb.
Awesome gear! I really need one! Great review!
Awesome video, thank you!
that's pretty awesome! I just assumed it was simply displaying the HDMI data including overlays from the camera, amazing value with all those options!
I have been checking for this monitor to be in stock since this video was posted. Finally in stock tonight! (Probably won’t last long because of your video though.). Thank you!!!!
Thanks for the tip, I’m going to use your link to scoop one of these. I usually don’t prefer “cheaper” options, as longevity tends to be an issue, but I need another monitor bad right now and this price point with its features seems like an easy buy.
I have the OSEE G7 and it rocks. This looks like a great sidekick for that one on something like a gimbal.
So happy that you made this video 😍😍
This looks nifty - also, the top-down face-on shot is fun :D
Super handy!
Thats crazy, I bought the Feelworld monitor you recommended 2 years ago, wish I had waited for this beauty! 4k output for the price!
Thanks for helping me find anamorphic setting!
Always great content!
A little late to the game here, but I JUST purchased this monitor, thanks to your video. Can't wait to try it out myself! Love the pages feature!
Feelworld F5 Pro user here. I just got it 2 months ago and it's my first monitor so I can't compare on experience. It certainly is practical and in the same price range as the reviewed Osee T5. At these prices I think it is a great incentive for anyone to get into using. Mostly I wanted to save my eyes from distinguishing the dozens of status icons on my Sony AX-700's built in screen. (Makes your rig look more impressive to casual observers too , LOL).
I just grabbed one of these a couple weeks ago ~ it's a great little monitor
This is awesome! Always wanted one for my old camera but they were ro expensive. This is at a black Friday price. Thanks
your background lighting is excellent
Great products from Osee. Picked up a 15.6" Production Display 6 years ago from a REDUSER Group Buy. Best purchase to date.
I can’t wait for your next video!
I love this monitor. The auto-flipping feature and the videography tools are what you'd expect from a monitor 3x-5x the price.
does it have anamorphic de-squeeze?
@@SEANLIGHTZTV yea he shows it in the video
Fantastic review. This looks just like the ticket to use in my atem mini build
Amazing find! I can't believe how amazing this monitor is, regardless of the price! It is definitely worth way more than 185$
Nice looking and simple monitor.
Wow thanks for this. Great video as always. Ry temporarily back in Dubai :)
This is Great! Thanks for the vid!
You're welcome Christopher! Thanks for watching!
I'm looking forward to the coming monitor video. I just bought an X-T3 so a monitor is something I'm definitely starting to research for now. This one looks very promising.
1000% I used my XT3 quite a bit without a monitor, and the difference a monitor makes to shooting (even if it’s a boring corporate video) is amazing (especially if you’re using log)
im looking for a monitor to use with my XT-3 and this one is looking pretty promising!
I have this style of monitor from Swit but 7 inch and 3000nits of brightness with joystick like this one has and maaaaan I love that interface….so quick to use….love it.
Can’t wait for the monitor video even thought I have already bought a monitor I already know it’s going to be a fun video
Will definitely be purchasing one when available
Not sure if I’m watching a product review or ASMR. So satisfying yet comprehensive information.
Yes, I’m getting one.
Good 👍 video of today video Good luck bro Nice work brother 😊
Awesome vid 🙌🏼
Thank you man!
I've owned this monitor for a few months, and it pretty light and tack sharp with good colors. Def recommend it
Looking forward to your monitor comparisson video and really hoping you mention which monitors correctly interpret the levels from the camera as 0-255 or 16-235 depending on the camera output.
Unfortunately the Atomos Shinobi interprets all signals as 16-235, causing the highlight and shadows to clip. This is particularly annoying when loading a custom S-Log3 conversion LUT (the inbuilt conversion doesn't look good at all) as it doesn't give an accurate representation of what the final video will look like.
(This was an issue that was fixed after many user complaints with the Ninja, however it seems they never made the same fix/toggle option for the Shinobi)
I tried to solve this issue by converting my LUTs in Resolve first with a Node before them to compress full levels to 16-235 and reexporting these, but unfortunately it doesn't fix the issue.
It would be amazing to know which monitors correctly display 0-255 levels, particularly when using LUTs, as I will be returning the Shinobi for something else.
Did you ever find out what monitors can do this? I’ve had the same issue and no one has any info on it, it’s driving me nuts! So much money wasted. Would be amazing if anyone had more info!
Bought this a few months ago, absolutely love it 🤘
I got a question, what happens when you shoot 4k 50 or 60? Does the screen go black?
I need this: Thanks!
I've got the Osee T7 and love it. 3000 nits bby!
I am already considering the Osee T7 monitor, and then here's this review. Since I am always looking to save a few bucks while getting the most bang for my bucks I figured the 5 incher could save me a few dollars without sacrificing more than I am willing to. However, the T7 has 3,000 nits, which was got me interested in it at first, and then there is the difference in screen size. If it was screen size only I would change my mind and move to the 5 incher to save money, but I do shoot in bright sunlight and I don't want to sacrifice the nits, and have to crane my neck to see around the hood of the 5 incher. That being said, this 5 incher is an absolutely amazing product at this price point. And as always, amazing review.
3000 nits should be considered a light not a monitor, I wouldnt trust a monitor with such high brightness capabilities
@@johngeorgo - Check out the review by Curtis Judd. There are many other reviews as well.

I used to be indecisive , but now im not so sure ...
Amazing LUTs btw :)
This is sick! Just in time for the holidays🤔
Wow, that's feature packed for $125! Thanks for the video.
Looks excellent
WHAT!? oh I’m definitely buying those luts for the a7siii!!! Thanks!
Thanks TFG!!!
This is awesome. I just got the Sirui anamorphic 50mm and this would be super helpful.
Yes! 1.6x for the win!
@DSLR Video Shooter - Maybe let the manufactures know before hand when you give a glowing review so they can be ready for all the orders 😆
Looks amazing!
I'm regretting so hard I bought a cheap Feelworld monitor almost for the same price, but with less than half the capabilities this one have... 😱😱😱
But great review pal, thanks a lot! 🤗
I've had an OSEE 17 inch monitor for years. For an on-camera monitor I'd want SDI so the cost will be a lot higher for me, but they're still pretty good. They've clearly lifted the interface from SmallHD but they're one of the better Chinese companies that do that kind of thing. I believe SWIT helped co-develop the monitors so you can see the same devices under their branding.
Whats the difference between monitors with hdmi and sdi?
Back in stock 👏🏼
I was looking at getting a monitor and I think this would be perfect. I'm going to wait and see what the price is when it gets back in stock!
Nice video! My old eyes need a bigger monitor. Like a 7 inch.
You're going to get the bigger review just in time for me. I was just looking at a new monitor, hahah.
Haven’t watched the full video yet, but I got this monitor a while back and love it for the price!
Nice! Glad to hear someone else also had a good experience.
Great video. Thanks! Sad that the Ninja flame is no longer in production. Miss the 7 inch recorder. Only Ninja V is available but is 5.5 inch.
just ordered this via your affiliate linbk :) Thank you!
This guys has such a chilled out voice….
The recessed hdmi port is really thoughtful of osee
Man what a time to be alive, my first 5" 640p Marshall monitor for my 5D2 in 2010 was like $550. You can get a Ninja V on sale for less than that.
I remember buying a 7" smallHD monitor for $600. Given all the smartphones out there with similar sized nice screens, you know most of the physical components are out there for cheap. It has usually been the software/firmware feature set that has driven the price.
Straight to my buy list, I hope this monitor will be available in EU soon. Thanks for the informative content
It is available...under a different name! Swit CM55. Costs a little bit more as tax is included but from the short amount of research I done shows no obvious differences
@@arjunpala101 Good to know, thanks!
This monitor is crazy!
Going to wait until the new video comes out. I hope soon. I'm ready to go. Thank you.
Not so much the product you're reviewing, but it's the lighting on your background... Nice video!!!
Thanks!
Looks suspiciously similar to the older smallHd stuff… the joystick, the zoom, the pages… it’s all quite “inspired” let’s say.
I love that smallHd stuff, so I think i would prob like this one, but haha yeah, it’s kinda identical tbh.
good video monitor deals are important
Caleb, I know you focus on video. But would love to see a video on the benefits of field monitor for still photography. With mounting ideas etc, ways to secure HDMI wires etc. I say this because I am seriously thinking about getting a field monitor for my Sony A7R3 instead of switching to A74.
Seconded. I have a Canon 5d4 and want something to help with manually focusing a tilt shift lens
Caleb, thanks for the thorough review and providing a link to purchase. One thing I discovered when I received my monitor is the battery output will only accept a straight connector. I own several cables that might work, but the connectors are right angle and the reach is too short. All the different barrel sizes available make a it a bit confusing when it comes to finding the correct cable. Can you provide a good source for power cables? Thanks again!
Tempted to buy this right away... but knowing that in the next week will see a monitor roundup scares me
The price and the compactness... Ahh love it.
Looks fantastic.
Does it have mirror/flip for teleprompter mode?
Great tutorial. Does the headphone jack allow you to monitor the audio as you're filming?
Thank u bro. If you make a LUT for Canon R6, I will buy it for sure
This monitor looks exactly like the Swit CM-55C. Had it for a couple of months and love it so far.
Was about to say the same thing!
so similar to smallHD's operating system, interesting. Seems like a sweet spot in the market with the Focus series discontinued. Does this come in SDI / HDMI version?
I would add the Portkeys PT5. Great gimbal monitor
Thank you so much
This is a SWIT CM55c clone, if not the exact same thing just rebranded. I bought mine back in March 2019 and it's served me damned well ever since.
2:07 you really convinced me that it is a camera 🕹
Reminds me of the 502 SmallHD monitors.
Damn you for making me purchase that!
omgg this looks and functions almost exactly like the Switcm 55c (UK)
I bought the Andycine A6 Plus based largely on Caleb's recommendation. It's a great monitor, but I think it's important to talk about brightness because my Andycine monitor is not conducive to outdoor shooting in the sun, even with a hood.
Yeah, same here. I shoot outdoors 99% of the time and it's killing me. I wish I had spent a little more to get a brighter screen. I hope some of the ones he reviews are seriously bright!
I"m confused. The 6 inch ANDYCINE is 2200 or something nits and all the others even SMALL HD are only like 500. Am I missing something?
@@sutv6754 The 5.5" Andycine A6 Plus that I own is 500 nits. I guess it's pretty decent, but I just happened to find myself using it on very bright days.
For direct sunlight, I think you really want a 1000-nit monitor.
I'm guessing the Fotga C50 is going to be in that next video. That is the monitor has peaked my interest the most recently, but I'm going to wait for the next video.
Is this a re-brander SWIT CM-55C ? Looks identical to the one I own. This is most likely the best bang for buck monitor you can buy. I bought it mainly for the micro-usb charging port. I power up my BMPCC4K with an Anker 26800 battery bank and the monitor through micro usb. The setup works with 2x battery bank as well, which gives more hours to operate. With one battery bank it takes around 4 hours before the camera dies.
Looks like a good monitor for the price. But with all the functionality coming from basically 1 button, its going to add a lot of camera bump. If its just mounted on a hot shoe, as I see you doing it, your not going to want to be recording while checking things out. Touch screen monitors can have this same issue if you push too hard, but at least it gives you a chance. Quality of life will be better if you can afford a better monitor.
