Highly recommend the RED handle, especially if you like shooting handheld, that trigger button is very pleasing.

@LeeZavitz 3 жыл бұрын

It’s a nice handle but Feels overpriced for a record button. I’d actually love a record button on the left side of the camera

Hey Lee! Thanks for this excellent "how to"! I recently bought a BMCC6K Pro and this BM5WR! But I am a cine newbie-thank goodness we love to learn, eh Lee? From London, Ontario. Living in Montreal for the last 4 years. Awesome stuff Lee thanks for your help!

Nice setup, love how quickly you can swap out shooting configs. Monitor looks like a decent option as well. More Komodo stuff if you're game. Maybe some exposure vids, workflow vids. Up to you though mate.

Hey dude. Great video - quick point though, have a quick check of your SDI cable and that it's 12G. I only say because it looks like I have the same 3G cables that I used for a bit which will bust your port. (I haven't seen the whole video yet so you might mention it (sorry if so aha!!))

What do you mean by “bust the port”?

Bro be careful with that Portkeys, it's fried the HDMI ports on several ZCams and it burnt out the HDMI port on two of my cameras (how I found out what it was). For SDI the general rule/order or operations is power everything on, the plug in SDI. Take SDI off first, then unplug power. It's a newer version so I'm sure it's good if you follow that but Portkeys had some serious issues. I've still gotta reach out to them and see if they're going to help out. Their customer service isn't bad so I'm hopeful, just a little sketch now.

great video!! i just paired my bmpcc 4k with the BM5WR just now,. i'm able to control it from the monitor but the monitor isn't showing what's on my camera, the screen is the default screen. do i need to connect something else via cable? i thought that the blue tooth connection will also connect the video? thanks!

Yeah this monitor doesn’t give wireless video feedback at all … only wireless remote control but if you can’t see what you’re controlling .. it’s kinda pointless tbh

@rexlint7579 2 жыл бұрын

Nice job man! Super clean setup. Just wondering why there is still an SDI cable on your setup. Is the wireless monitor reliable? Can you run a second monitor wireless as well for client for focus ducher? Thanks man this was super helpful. You bypassed a lot of my mistakes!

@LeeZavitz 2 жыл бұрын

The monitor isn’t wireless for video feed. Just wireless for controlling the camera.

Nice rig, looks like your SDI is 3g based on the thickness, you should only be running 12g sdi @ 75ohms with your Komodo so you're aware.

Does the wireless monitor control also control auto focus on the Komodo?

@LeeZavitz 3 жыл бұрын

No. It’s just the basic settings of the exposure and frame rate

@schmollywood 3 жыл бұрын

@@LeeZavitz Thanks. That’s a deal breaker for me since controlling auto focus would be THE remote function that would be most useful to me. Anything else I don’t mind controlling from the Komodos own screen, but even the Smartphone app can do tap to focus. So I guess nice try by p Portkeys using WiFi instead of cables like SmallHD, but without focus control it misses the mark

@LeeZavitz 3 жыл бұрын

Meh. I don’t really use autofocus so it doesn’t bother me. There’s also the chance they add it in firmware updates. It feels very beta to me anyway. We will have to see what the future brings.

I have the wireless to my Komodo setup, but I can't see any image on the BM5 WR. I am only using Wireless. Do I need to have a cable hooked up to the Komodo and BM5 WR in order to see an image on the monitor?

Yeah u need a cable to get video feedback, this is not really a wireless monitor as much as it’s a wireless remote that you can use as a monitor IF you plug it in

Great setup! I actually have a Ronin M as well but didn't use it for a few months and then the batteries stopped charging! It really sucks because now I feel like it's useless. Have you run into that with your Ronin M batteries, or do you know of a fix for this?

I’m not sure about that setup. But I have a ronin quick release plate made by smallrig. And that is on the tripod.

I have an issue using the portkeys monitor with the komodo, the video signal goes in and out.

It works fine but after a few mins the signal starts to go in and out help!! Am I doing something wrong?

That’s really weird. It could potentially be an issue with the monitor. If you changed cables and it still does it, it seems like a faulty monitor. Have you tried the monitor with any other camera?
