Precision 2.4-Inch Monitoring
The Portkeys LEYE II is a compact electronic viewfinder built for professional videographers who need accurate on-camera monitoring. It delivers a sharp 1440 x 900 resolution on a 2.4-inch LCD with 300nit brightness and 1100:1 contrast for clear visibility in varied lighting. An adjustable diopter from +8 to -3 and wide 178° viewing angle ensure comfortable, personalized use during long shoots.
4K30p HDMI Input Decides Compatibility
The single specification that determines fit is the HDMI input supporting video resolutions up to 4K30p. Cameras outputting higher frame rates at 4K or requiring SDI connectivity will not work with this unit. Verify your camera’s HDMI output matches this 4K30p limit before purchasing to avoid signal mismatch.
Integrated Power and Thermal Design
An integrated Canon E6 battery plate powers the viewfinder directly, freeing the camera’s own battery for longer runtimes. Upgraded heatsink vents dissipate heat without external fans, maintaining silent operation for audio-sensitive environments. The unit mounts via standard accessory shoes, leaving HDMI cabling as the only required connection for immediate monitoring.

Questions about this item
How sharp does 1440 x 900 look on a 2.4 inch screen in practice?
The 1440 x 900 pixel count on a 2.4 inch panel gives a very high pixel density so text and focus peaking lines appear crisp without visible pixel structure.
What does the HDMI input actually support when I plug in a 4K camera?
The HDMI port accepts video up to 4K30p so you can monitor UHD footage at its native frame rate without down-scaling.
How do I mount this viewfinder on my rig and power it?
It includes an integrated Canon E6 battery plate and standard mounting points so you can attach it directly to a cage or hot-shoe and run it from common E6 batteries.
