ProAm USA, a manufacturer of production equipment for film and video enthusiasts and professionals, recently released its brand new 7” LCD Monitor Hood and 10” LCD Monitor Hood. LCD monitors can be attached to a camera or crane and provide an excellent alternative to viewing media through a cramped viewfinder, offering major benefits including more accurate focus pulling and easier shot compositions. But when in bright settings, either indoor or outside and exposed to the natural light of the sun, the intense light can create an obtrusive glare or make even the brightest of screens difficult to see. The LCD Monitor Hoods from ProAm USA offer filmmakers a simple and inexpensive solution to this plaguing issue.
“The ProAm USA line of monitor equipment and accessories is a growing list that continues to improve with the addition of the new 7” and 10” LCD Monitor Hoods,” states Jonathan Baty, president, ProAm USA. “We strive to offer filmmakers of all skill levels great gear at prices that remove the traditional barrier of entry into filmmaking. These new sunshades are no exception. Easy to attach and remove, a deep design that keeps light out and the ability to adjust the hood’s bottom section are among many reasons these ProAm hoods are an excellent option for any filmmaker.”
Easy to attach and remove, deep design cuts out lots of light, mounts to the face of the monitor allowing access to side inputs, removable bottom section allows access to bottom controls, adjustable bottom section allows even more light to be blocked by increasing the angle of its position.
Seven-Inch Monitor Hood
Made to fit seven-inch video screens, the P7H2 monitor sun screen attaches and removes instantly using high-strength Velcro strips fixed to the face of your monitor. Bottom and side mounted controls are easily accessible thanks to the hood’s face-mounting design. An adjustable and removable bottom section combined with the shade’s seven-inch depth ensures that the maximum amount of light is blocked. The P7H2 LCD monitor hood is rigid when in use, but collapses flat for storage. The perfect companion to ProAm USA’s 7” Iris Pro HD On-Camera/Crane LCD Monitor, the 7” LCD Monitor Hood is available now for 27.99 USD and is backed by ProAm USA’s lifetime warranty and 30-day money back guarantee.
