SmallHD Delivers Breakthrough in On-Camera Focus Assist Technology With Latest Firmware Upgrade

Cary, North Carolina (PRWEB) February 04, 2012

With the introduction of Focus Assist Plus, SmallHD delivers a new focus tool that out performs any monitor in its class. Delivering critical focus in a wide range of shooting environments is the most important value an on-camera monitor can provide.

High resolution monitors such as those pioneered by SmallHD deliver unprecedented clarity. However, there are times when close access to a monitor is not possible. Run-and-gun, Stedicam and crane shots present a particular challenge. SmallHDs Focus Assist Plus gives the cinematographer more confidence when dealing with these challenging shooting situations.
