The Transvideo Stargate is a 7-inch high-end monitor-recorder with a Full HD (1920×1080) display, known for its “Immediate Display Technology” for no-latency monitoring. For this professional monitor, a Sun Hood is an essential accessory to ensure optimal screen visibility in bright outdoor environments.

Transvideo offers a specific sun hood for the Stargate monitor.

Transvideo Magnetic Sun Hood for Stargate

Product Description: This sun hood is custom-designed by Transvideo to perfectly fit the 7-inch Stargate monitor. Its primary function is to block direct sunlight and ambient glare from hitting the monitor screen, which can otherwise wash out the image, reduce contrast, and make it difficult to accurately judge focus and exposure. The hood creates a shaded viewing environment, significantly improving screen readability in bright conditions. A key feature of Transvideo’s sun hoods, including the one for the Stargate, is their magnetic attachment system, allowing for quick and hassle-free deployment and removal on set. It’s made of a soft material and is lightweight, making it easy to handle and store.

Key Features:

• Optimized for Stargate 7″ Monitor: Custom-designed by Transvideo to perfectly fit the Stargate monitor’s dimensions and screen, ensuring maximum light blocking without obstructing the view.
• Effective Glare Reduction: Creates a shaded tunnel around the screen, significantly reducing glare, reflections, and ambient light washout, thereby improving image clarity and contrast.
• Magnetic Attachment: Features a fast and secure magnetic fastening system that allows for quick and tool-less attachment and removal, essential for dynamic on-set workflows.
• Includes Removable Extension: Often comes with a removable extension piece, allowing operators to adjust the depth of the hood to adapt to varying light conditions and personal preference.
• Durable & Lightweight Material: Constructed from a soft, yet robust material that is lightweight (approx. 100g) for easy handling and storage, and durable enough for professional use.
• Enhances Outdoor Visibility: Crucial for shooting outdoors in bright sunlight, enabling cinematographers, focus pullers, and directors to accurately see what’s being captured.
• Foldable/Collapsible Design (Typical): While not explicitly stated for all, most modern sun hoods of this type are designed to be foldable or collapsible for compact storage and transport.
