QUICKSTART GUIDE

THANK YOU FOR CHOOSING ELVID.
The Elvid SkyVision 5.5-inch monitor adds the functions of a wireless transmitter, receiver, and recorder, to your setup. And they’re all built into a compact, camera mountable unit with a full HD resolution screen. The wide range of functionality allows you to use it as a wired on-camera monitor, or as a wireless monitor for directors. To follow the camera action in real time, a smartphone or tablet can be paired with the transmitting monitor from up to 500 feet away.
Whether in transmitter or receiver mode, the SkyVision monitor can record image and sound onto an installed microSD card and quickly access it for playback. User-friendly onscreen menus make numerous scopes, markers, focusing, and exposure tools easy to access. And three programmable function buttons put your most frequently used monitoring and broadcast tools at your fingertips. To ensure a crisp and dynamic image with vibrant colors, the monitor comes with eight preloaded 3D LUTS. User-supplied LUTs can be accessed via a microSD card.
