Shimbol CP5 Ultra Wireless Touchscreen Camera Monitor
If you film content by yourself, this is one of those tools that makes the entire process so much easier. The Shimbol CP5 Ultra gives you a wireless 5" touchscreen monitor so you can see and control your phone's rear camera even when you're nowhere near your phone.
The biggest advantage for me is how much dead recording time it eliminates. You can start and stop recording directly from the touchscreen, so you don't have to hit record, walk into position, film what you need, walk all the way back to your phone, and then cut all of that extra footage out later. It makes both filming and editing way more efficient.
It's also incredibly useful for wide shots or anytime I'm handling a product and can't easily see my phone. Instead of trying to look across the room at a tiny phone screen, I can keep the monitor close to me and get a much better view of exactly what the camera is seeing. I can fully walk away from my phone without losing control of the shot.
You still have access to the camera controls you'd normally use—including things like zoom or exposure—right from the touchscreen, so it's much more than just a second screen.
For tutorials, product videos, shop content, or basically anything you're filming completely by yourself, this solves one of the most annoying parts of being a solo creator.
This is easily one of my favorite pieces of gear for solo filming.
