The older Ikan monitors work well, but it is not practical to power them from the video camera batteries because it will only last about 10 minutes. If you have AC power or a vagabond, it will work well. Or if your takes are very short and you have a bag with plenty of batteries.

Looks like a Lilliput monitor with a different brand sticker on it to me.
