    I’m looking for ideas on a TC display device.

    I would like a small battery-powered LED Display that I can mount on my HDX900 (Vecro or cold-shoe mount) that would display TC. I do a lot of outdoor shooting that my client would like to write down time-code while I shoot, but doesn’t want to have to see it off the tiny operator side display.

    Anyone know of a product like this?

    Yeah, I know about the Scriptboy, but my clients were asking for something simpler.

    I also found something called the Scriptview which is an on-camera TC display, but can’t seem to find anything out about it. (I sent them an email).

    And then I also found the Scriptlinc Jr., which looks interesting.

    How about a small monitor you can mount (or your client can handhold) connected to the Monitor Output with Characters turned on. Client can then see picture and t/c.
