Purpose:As i often shoot on location and without a laptop it was difficult to effectively inspect my shots on the fly, but now with my trusty 8.5 inch LCD portable DVD player i have a much larger view for inspection.
If you want to use your portable dvd player as a camera LCD viewer, keep on watching.
First of all, i'd like to thank David Tajeda for his video on portrait phoography where he displayed his use of a DVD player as a camera LCD. If it wasn't for that video, i probably would have pushed off getting a DVD player for that purpose.
In this video, I've also customized my camera bag to be used as a rig to hold the portable dvd player for view.
Tools needed
1.Video cable that came with your DVD player along with the RadioShack Gold Series 1/8" Mono Plug to RCA Phono Jack Model: 274-897
2.Radio Shack 16-Ft. Computer Speaker Cable, 1/8" Jack to 1/8" Plug Model: 42-2493 (for extended reach)
3.Panasonic Portable DVD player (any dvd player with a video in should work)
4.Box cutter
5.Velcro
6.Lowepro toploader 75 AW
First i will start with the DVD player to Camera connection |
