Long description

The Portkeys LH7C is a 7-inch monitor designed for content creators seeking a lightweight, rugged on-camera monitor that doesn’t compromise on advanced camera control for Sony, Canon, and Panasonic cameras. Extremely thin and weighing only 245g/8.6oz (without battery), the polycarbonate and ABS construction helps keep the weight low, fitting naturally into any rig without weighing down your setup. The 7.0″ FullHD touchscreen LCD offers 1,000 nits of brightness, making it daylight-viewable.

Designed for modern workflows, the LH7C combines an HDMI video signal and wired camera control via a single cable using the TA03Y USB-C/HDMI adapter. This two-in-one solution simplifies cabling, reduces clutter, and improves reliability on set.

To set up, simply connect the TA03Y cable to your camera’s HDMI and USB-C ports, then attach the other end to the monitor. Power the LH7C using either a Sony L-Series battery or an external DC input. Once powered and connected, the monitor will automatically recognize supported cameras. Within moments, you can adjust key camera settings such as ISO, aperture, shutter speed, white balance, autofocus, and trigger recording directly from the LH7C touchscreen, with intuitive on-screen controls making configuration smooth and fast.

The LH7C supports the operation of various Sony, Canon, and Panasonic cameras. It is compatible with well-known models, including the Sony FX3/FX30, the A7S III/A7 IV/A7V/A9 III mirrorless cameras; the Canon EOS R1, R5 Mark II, R6 Mark III; and Panasonic S1/S1R and S5II/S5IIX, to name a few.

The LH7C runs on MOVNORM OS, a fast and minimalist interface offering all the essential professional tools
