Feelworld F7 Field Monitor Overview

I love my Panasonic GH5 and it’s screen is pretty decent, but it is rather small. So when I have the luxury of adding a monitor, I like to work with a 7” field monitor. This helps me with exposure (using the false color feature), focus (with the focus peaking feature), and composition. But many of the 7” monitors are quite pricey on the one end, or rather poor quality on the other end. Feelworld’s F7 monitor strikes a nice balance of affordable (at approx. $170 USD) and good features and quality. Let’s have a closer look!
