Sony CLM-V55 is a portable HDMI screen for your DSLR

If you like to record videos using your DSLR, you might find that the screens on your DSLR (if they can even display the video you are shooting) aren’t big or clear enough for proper usage. Sony has come up with a solution to the problem – the CLM-V55 is a large portable HDMI screen that you can easily attach to your camera (it takes the place of your flash unit) to show you what you are pointing your camera at in video recording mode. In addition to displaying your video, any sound picked up by your camera’s microphone can be passed through the screen to external headphones for you to listen to your audio while recording, thus killing two birds with one stone. The CLM-V55 also has advanced features such as peaking to check on exposure and magnification to check on focus accuracy. No prices have been announced for the device, but expect it to be available in March.
