- čas přidán 26. 08. 2024
- Hi CZcams! I am doing a series of videos where I review the ACTUAL gear I use! We will start with one of my monitors in the Portkeys LH5P II. It is easily one of my favorite monitors I have ever used and it was purchased with my own money! This is the best budget monitor with high quality features. And it's very competitive to monitors that are 2x the cost!

Thank you for a great review. Bonus points for having a little fun with it.
I appreciate that!!!
Bro! You’ve convinced me to get a proper monitor. I’ve been stalling getting one but I definitely need a monitor.
It helps tremendously! I didn’t start requiring them until a year ago and it has made my shooting process soooo much easier
Great video! Just ordered one based on your review!
Hope it’s been helpful bro!
Thanks brother nice attitude! first video and I already like you! which one would you get considering the LH7P is only 1000 nits bright? I'm concerned is not going to be bright enough outdoors...
Have you managed to zoom into the 4k on the monitor? When i pinch and zoom its definitely blowing up the 1080 image rather than zooming into the 4k
I just got this monitor. I wanted to connect with the cable but I coudnt on my sony A6700 that is alot like an FX30. I got wi-fi to work but not the cable.
I apologize that we have not yet tested whether the LH5PII can control the A6700 through the control line. Thank you for your feedback.
Very informative! Does touch focus work with canon cameras? Have you tried it with your r5?
I have sadly not tried it with the Canon R5! Sold it months ago
@@mariodevon_ Noted with thanks.
Last question. Even though the max input is 4K 30, would I still be able to shoot 4K 60 on my actual camera but use the monitor as a reference only for framing and proper exposure etc?
@@donaldleadonjr.3892yes just instead of sending a 4k 60 signal over hdmi you would send a 1080p 60 signal. And record in what ever you want. Sony FX line cameras all have a setting to scale hdmi output
Hi, LH5PII can touch focus with Canon R5 via wifi and usb control cable~
Hi, I can´t reply recorded footages on my fx3 when I connect the PORTKEYS LH5P II :/ I have to disconnect a hdmi cable and then it works. Have you tried it? Could you advise me how to set fx3 correctly... Many thanks
I mainly use the monitor to playback footage. There may be some Finder/Monitor settings you will have to adjust in the FX3. But it works perfectly on my end. I’ll make a video walking through it
Almost *30* years 😂
Haha I realized this as I was editing and got even more confused why we got USB-A on this thing. But seriously, just cost savings I know 😅
so great video, I also got this moniter with new version, but I have problem that I can't solve is when I insert hdmi output to DigiSender. It received a crop image. How can I fix it🥲🙏
I have personally not used DigiSender. I’m working on a video to walk through the entire MovForm software coming soon!
Would this work with a A7iii I’ll upgrade to Fx3 soon.
The monitor will be the camera control may not as it supports newer camera firmware
@@mariodevon_ so basically I’ll be able to use the monitor portion but not all the features until I upgrade to the fx3
Hi, LH5PII can control SONY A7III via wifi~
Hi. What firmware is needed for my FX3 to connect to the LH5PII? I wrote to Portkeys and I know I have the latest firmware for the monitor, but when I hit the connection button I keep getting the message “connection failed. Please close the window and try again.” Can you help with this?
The Movnorm firmware is needed. It’s the newest one they released about 2 months ago. The old firmware with the old school font and red color theme, doesn’t work at all since the FX3 had its latest firmware update. The connection only works on the newest MovNorm firmware
@@mariodevon_ Hi. Thanks. I have the latest Movnorm firmware. What firmware do I need for my fX3 and a7siii?
The most recent they released earlier this year. I can’t remember the exact number. But the MovNorm software for Portkeys was resigned specifically in response to the new FX3 update
Additionally, the old firmware for both, works together. The new firmware for both, works together. Hope this helps!
Thx. What I need to know is what firmware on the FX3 and a7siii is needed.
support 4k 50/60 ?
Hi, regardless of the video resolution recorded internally by the camera, simply set the camera's HDMI output resolution to 1080P, and then our monitor will display the image.
this feels like an ad
Weird comment.
Well it’s an ad I paid for cause I bought the monitor with my own money 😂
Not a good experience for me, since the software (new version) couldn’t even recognize my fx3, either through WiFi or just in the settings menu. I had to unfortunately send it back just 1 week ago. Maybe I got a lemon.
