I have a 5D mark III and I do a lot of night shots from very low on the ground. I came from a 600D that had the flip out screen so it was very easy to use. I love my new 5D but climbing on the ground is not working out with my bad back. I wanted to check out options on adding some kind of small portable monitor. I need to be able to see my live view as it shows on the back of my camera. Is this possible and if so could you possibly give me some incite on what my options are.

Thank you very much for the help.
 
A99 rear screen does that ;) (as does the monitor that I linked).
 
Lots of external monitors out there, designed for use with video, but should do what you want. Bit pricey though. Failing that, there's the right angle finder attachment which goes on your viewfinder - if you can make do without liveview.

Thanks, there are a lot to choose from but I don't know enough about the subject to make a good decision. I also don't want to work with magic lantern software. I'm a bit lost...:bang:
