Blackmagic PYXIS Monitor

The Blackmagic PYXIS Monitor is a versatile, high-brightness monitoring solution designed for seamless compatibility with Blackmagic PYXIS and URSA Cine cameras. Far more than just an external display, it functions as a powerful camera extension with a 5" LCD touchscreen interface that allows users to control all camera features directly. This integration makes it an ideal tool for professional shooters who need a high-resolution viewfinder for more accurate focusing and framing during a production.

Designed for flexibility on set, the monitor features multiple mounting points so it can be easily attached to the camera as a large viewfinder or mounted onto a larger rig. To ensure clear visibility in challenging environments, a clip-on sunshade is included to facilitate viewing in daylight or other bright light conditions. However, users should note that mounting hardware and connection cables are not included with this specific model and must be sourced separately.
