A surprise to see was Lilliput. Not that I wasn't expecting them, I just wasn't looking for them, and happened to walk past. They're just so odd to me; their most popular 7" monitor has a terrible battery system, weird menu, a battery gauge that won't go away, two power switches, and a cheap-feeling plastic housing; and yet we have three of them. There's just something about it that everyone loves: it's cheap as hell.
They are releasing a new 5" monitor that's perfect for DSLR shooters, featuring a significantly improved battery system and sun shade. Batteries it accepts are the Canon LP-E6 from DSLR's, keeping weight and profile down. There may be adapters for other batteries like Sony L or Panasonics. HDMI in, no loop out. There's also composite and component BNC inputs. There is no price point yet, but I highly doubt it'll be higher than the 7" price. Shipping in the past has also been very quick; turns out they have been shipping from California, not China as we had thought.
