Not sure why you would want that TBH beyond a few specific tasks like video, where there are already loads of dedicated solutions and often better, e.g. getting the raw video over HDMI etc.

I was thinking about Macro ( out side nature mainly ) work as my EOS 7D does not have an articulated screen. So being able to view the screen at a more comfortable angle wold be a plus. Also the mount is supplied with a lead to connect tot the DSLR. My EOS 7D is not Wi-Fi enabled, so again I can not connect my smart phone or tablet easily to the DSLR for live view.

Filming is an area I wish to do more in so the big screen is a major plus for me

I can see it would be very useful for certain types of photography and the visually impaired

Not a bad price on kickstarter either

Would be great for my workflow on one of the jobs I have (plan to tether shoot outdoors and sort folders/photos in the short breaks), but my tablet is 10" so wouldn't fit

For macro a Proper macro tripod head and sliding focus adjuster would be much higher up my priority list.

The video displays connect by a lead to HDMI typically.

yep I agree sliding focus adjuster would also be a great addition to the kit bag
