This review is from: Ikan V5600 5.6" HD LCD Video Monitor with 1024 x 600 Resolution and HDMI Input (Personal Computers)

Purchased due to limited visual ability to use viewfinder on DSLR. The Ikan V5600 is a great deal more awkward on a DSLR camera than I thought it would be. Quality seems okay but the attachment device is very iffy in that it does not seem to be very reliable. Will likely tether it so if it comes off the camera it will not fall to the ground. Overall, not a good purchase for use on a DSLR camera.

A better solution for someone visually impaired is to purchase a DSLR camera with a 'live view' movable option so camera can be focused at virtually any angle using the live view feature rather than the viewfinder.
