Two suggestions:

Better follow-focus: I tried the one you're buying and it did not feel solid. The cheapest, good FF I found is this one: http://www.amazon.com/upgrade-DP500IIS-Rlease-dampen-follow/dp/B00EAJK2CS/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1410786393&sr=8-1&keywords=fotga+dp500ii

Even though it's under $200, I'd put it up against any FF at any price for general use.

What do you want to accomplish with the external monitor? It's resolution is so low and it's color so bad that you're better off with the built-in flip screen. It's going to be nearly useless for focusing. Personally, if I couldn't squeeze the SmallHD 7 into my budget, I'd either wait or maybe get the SmallHD 4
