Accsoon SeeMo 4K HDMI Video Transmitter Adapter for iPhone iPad, iOS/HDMI Capture Terminal Turns iPhone Into On-Camera Monitor

Every once in a while, a product comes along that’s a total game changer in its field. In the world of camera rigs gear that can kill multiple birds with one stone are the most appreciated because space is a premium and weight has to be considered with everything. The SeeMo 4K by Accsoon is a revolutionary piece of gear that kills multiple birds with one beautifully designed stone.When setting up a camera rig one of the main things you have to consider is how are you going to monitor? How are you gonna see your signal since the viewfinder and the LCD screen are gonna be covered up with your battery, your cage, all that stuff. They make proprietary monitors, they make field recorders that have monitors, those are all fine and dandy, but what if you didn’t have to buy an extra display?What if you could have a super bright display that looked great in direct sunlight and had wonderful colors and resolution, you know like an iPhone. I never go anywhere without my iPhone, so be able to use it as a monitor would be a big score. It’s brighter than most monitors. The resolution is higher than most monitors and major bonus, it’s an always connected Internet device. Wouldn’t it be great if you could use your iPhone as a monitor, use it to record whatever your camera sees, and allow you to share clips as soon as you take them to any streaming service or messages or email or anything you could think of? Thats what SeeMo 4K does! On top of all that it has other great features like the ability to see LUTs over your log footage as you shoot. How about false color, focus peaking, zebras, scopes, and histograms? It has all that. In addition, hardware wise it has a SD card slot so you can offload footage from your camera and your iPhone to the SD card slot, which also allows you to load your own LUTS. So many features in one little device!Now, having these features is great, but no big deal if they don’t work that well. On the SeeMo 4K everything is implemented in a thoughtful, well designed manner. You could have the layout of your monitor screen be as full featured or as minimalist as you want, it’s completely customizable. Every single monitoring feature that it has can either be added to or taken away from the main screen with a simple tap. It has the killer feature of being able to apply your lots to the footage your recording to the iPhone so you can have stuff where you go for socials or to share, already graded. You don’t have to worry about compressing footage or switching stuff up to share file format, and codec wise. The SeeMo 4K takes your 4K footage and transcodes it into 1080P 60 FPS on the fly, so it’s ready for streaming, sharing, whatever you wanna do with it. Such a time saver!The hardware is really well built. It’s super lightweight too, but seems like it could take the kind of drops or bumps that happen on set. Wanna know another major bonus? It charges your device well it’s monitoring so you never have to worry about your phone running dead while you shoot it does this by having an attachment for a Sony battery, or in my case, a dummy battery attached to a V-mount big battery. I also bought the Accsoon Power Cage so I can use the SeeMo 4K with my 11 inch iPad Pro and have all the same features only on a bigger screen. It also charges my iPad Pro and if I wanted to, it could take another Sony battery on the cage and use its USB out to power other devices.Another thing I love is that it’s very versatile as far as ways you can mount it. I go back-and-forth from having it on my rigs top handle with a monitor mount for my phone or mounting it to the back of my rig on the battery with some Velcro while running the iPad off of a magic arm. The combination of the power cage, and the SeeMo 4K is awesome if you need lots of screen real estate.All this functionality and problem-solving for under 150 bucks is insane. I can also say that it’s the most important thing on my rig right now with the amount of things that it takes care of the workflow time reduction is incredible. I can shoot now in 4K and at the same time have it go to my phone in 1080P and immediately after shooting, have it uploaded to my editors or while I’m shooting I can stream LIVE to YouTube and Facebook! When I’m done sharing the clips or streaming them, I can offload them from my phone onto an SD card or AirDrop them off so I don’t use up a bunch of my phone space.I looked all over for something like this and it usually involved having to use two or three products. This one nails it all in one easy to use, handy, elegant device that I couldn’t imagine living without. Total home-tun by Accsoon!
