Just as Cineroid, Alphatron plans to make an EVF loupe that uses the iPhone retina display screen, manufactured by LG.
As you may know this display has a high quality and a screen with 960×640 pixels on a very small space which is almost twice as many pixels as the commonly used 800×480 displays. The EVF is manufactured and developed by renown company TVLogic.

Next to the high screen resolution the Alphatron EVF-035W-3G will also feature:
- HDMI in
- HD-SDI (3G/HD/SD-SDI) in
- HDMI out

- Markers, User Aspect
- Zoom, Blue Only
- HD Video 3G Level A/B
- Audio Level Meter
- Time Code Display
- Range Error, Zebra Pattern,
- Luma(y’) Zone Check, Focus Assist
- Internal Colourbar + Pluge Pattern
- HDMI-to-HDSDI Conversion Out
- HDMI~HDMI A. Loop Through
- SDI~SDI A. Loop Through
- Adjustable Diopter
- Manual Lens Shutter for protection of the EVF
- Power: NP-F Battery (not included), External DC 6-15V
The Alphatron/TVLogic EVF will become available at the end of May at $1395 (1095€)
Very similar in terms of features and pricing the Cineroid EVF will probably come in late July at $1100
