Four F-keys on the top allow you to set presets for quick access.

The monitor features various monitoring tools such as waveform, histogram, false colour, and vectorscope as well as focusing aids like peaking, zoom, and markers. At the rear of the monitor, a built-in L-series battery plate accepts a separately available battery, or use the 4-pin LEMO-type input with the power adapter.

The BM5WR with Camera Control maintains the same reliable BM5 clarity, vivid color details, and dynamic touch screen camera control.
