Unfortunately it came with no power packi had to get my own power bank and Wire to power it up and it is already damage by the look of the screen. I only used it 3 times while filming and this was the result. It doesn’t work any more.

Nice little monitor
I originally got this thinking I would use it for some upcoming projects that fell through, so it took me awhile to get around to hooking it all up. It comes in a super nice semi-hard case to protect it all. The included battery charges directly with a USB-C cable and seems to have excellent standby time and more than adequate runtime in usage. The whole kit is about the size of a half loaf of bread when folded up in its case. The included cold shoe mount is sturdy and hooks up quickly, and has a spare cold shoe mount included for other accessories. The screen is bright and responsive, and the included light shield is a nice addition. Colors appear accurate enough for basic framing, and I'd have no issue using it on a project. Accepts standard HDMI and comes with a a micro-HDMI cable to connect to your camera; I had to get a mini-HDMI cable as that's what my camera's output was. Seems to be overall a good value.

The little field monitor that could!
This is my 2nd field monitor by Feelworld and they are great monitors. I prefer the 7" for easier viewing of focus and exposure, but it is heavier and this 6" version packs a tiny bit mighty punch.
Simple to use, just plug the supplied HDMI cable into your camera and you're all set. It is plenty bright to use in mid-day sun at 1000 nits. The provided sun shade is great! Battery life is not that great at 2-3 hours, but I won't dock a star for that because you can buy larger batteries. I like how you don't need a charging station to charge the battery as it has a USB C port on the battery to charge which is convenient!
I customized 2 presets (3 total) for focus peaking and gridlines which you can quickly turn on and off. It can accept 4K footage but the monitor only displays in HD 1080p which is sufficient.
I have to still play around with the luts and other features but overall this is a great value for the money!

Nice monitor with tons of advanced features
There are so many features on this monitor; far more than I understand. This seems like it would be great for professional photographers/videographers, but it's easy enough for novices like me too. I record lots of video, but I don't get into advanced aspects like waveforms and luts. Those are options here if you want them though. The color on the screen is nice and the large screen is much easier to see than the tiny screen on my camera.
I like that it comes with a big battery so that it can be used wirelessly. And the hardshell case is great too.
I tested this with two cameras, the Canon T5i and the Sony ZV-E10. The monitor works well on both, but there are some drawbacks that you might run in to, depending on the camera you have. On both of my cameras, the monitor shuts off if I close the built-in screen. Another issue is that the built-in screens turn off when the monitor turns on, so you lose the touchscreen features on the camera, such as the ability to set auto-focus or tracking. And if you use this monitor on older cameras, like the T5i for example, you might have to buy a separate cable because the one that comes with the Feelworld monitor is an HDMI to Micro HDMI, which fits my Sony camera, but not my Canon, which uses mini HDMI instead of micro. I also can't get my Canon to go full screen on the monitor, so I don't get the full benefits of the big monitor size.
But I love that I can place the monitor wherever I want it, even several feet away from the camera. And I like that I can adjust the tilt while it's on the included mount. The sunshade is a nice accessory too.
I would have liked the option to turn the display upside down. Maybe it's there, but I couldn't find it in the menu. I would have liked if this had a better manual too. The manual it comes with only covers the basics. Even the downloadable PDF manual on the website is pretty slim. An HDMI to mini HDMI cable would have been nice too.

Nice little field monitor
Amateour photographer here. I like this field monitor a lot. It’s easy to install and use. I will need to study all the menu options but it offers a lot. The screen is clear and has a nice size. I can’t see my camera’s screen without my reading glasses, but I can easily see this monitor screen without the glasses. Such a relief!
The battery has a USB-C port for easy charging, which is a great feature. When you turn on all the waves in the monitor menu, RGB graphs are displayed in real-time as you move your camera. The monitor also has a hard-case carrying bag that looks very nice. Unfortunately, the connection cable that came in the box does not fit my camera. To test the monitor, I used a long HDMI cable which I use for my TV. I’ll need to get a short HDMI-to-HDMI cable.

Great addition to my video making rig
I cannot believe I waited so long to get this field monitor. I make YouTube videos with my Sony A6700 camera by myself. It is basically impossible to see the flip out LCD during filming when I am in front of the camera. This field monitor makes all the difference. Now I have this setup facing the front of the camera. I can make my review videos so much easier.
The kit comes with everything I need. Battery. Mounting Arm. mini HDMI to HDMI cable. Charging cables. All in a very nice case.
my Sony camera recognize the field monitor using the mini HDMI cable connection. Instead of output to the internal LCD, it output directly to the monitor.

Invest in a hdmi coil cord
So having a older Canon t1i that works fantastic I wanted to add upgrades. This works great as a better 4k screen. It is a MAJOR power consumer on the camera so invest in a external power source. The location of your hdmi out and the bar holding the screen may tangle so for a few bucks invest in a coil cord. The quality of the picture is great and the weight is light WITHOUT the battery. You do have a nice light shroud and the manual with font size is fair.

Easiest monitor I've used as a professional videographer!
Ive been a longtime user of multiple FeelWorld monitors and I loved every one of them. Each model that comes out always gets better and faster. I use it on most of my shoots and is SUPER helpful for getting a better look at framing my shots especially in the sun when i can barely see my little camera screen. I highly recommend this for any content creators and videographers it is affordable and very powerful.

The size of these monitors are perfect…small enough to put just about anywhere while the screen is large enough to view the subject….loved the first one so much I purchased another one !

Great budget friendly monitor!
The Feelworld FW568 V3 Camera Field Monitor is a great choice for filmmakers who need a small, affordable monitor with a range of useful features. Its 6-inch screen supports 4K HDMI In and Out, and the monitor can be powered by a variety of sources, including Sony NPF 550 batteries, Canon LP E6 batteries, DC power, and USB-C power. The intuitive controls and menus make it easy to use, and the waveform monitors, focus peeking, and false color settings provide valuable tools to help achieve the best possible image quality. However, the lack of touch screen functionality and the placement of the menu buttons on top of the monitor may make it difficult to navigate when mounted on a camera or tripod.
