Review of the Portkeys LH7P touch screen monitor with camera control

In this video I take a look at the Portkeys LH7P touch screen monitor. The reason I wanted to try this monitor was because of its ability to control many of Sony's Alpha and FX series cameras via WiFi. This control not only allows you to change the camera settings but it also allows you to use the monitors touch screen for touch to focus and focus tracking. I put it to use when shooting the circus performances at the Glastonbury festival and it worked really well.
