This video is sponsored by Portkeys, in it, I show you how you can control numerous different cameras with either a USB or wireless connection which on some cameras totally transforms the operation of them.
Thanks to ‪@KaiManWong‬

Thank you for this video. It helped me explain some things I was curious about. I have a Sony A7IV and was decision between the Portkeys and Atomos Ninja V. I want to have camera control on the monitor, but I don’t like having to to connect by wifi for that control. I’d rather have a reliable wired control. I tried the monitor+ app for my iPhone but quickly found I hated it Because it would sometimes lose signal when I needed it most. Hence why I want a wired connection. Since a wired connection with the Portkeys doesn’t give access to the camera controls, I might as well go with the Ninja V as my other thing I wanted was external recording to an SSD. That was secondary to touch focus and camera controls, but since I can’t get that over a wired connection, it only makes sense to lead toward the Ninja V. Now If you have any opinions on this, I’m very open to it. As you’ve been doing this Way longer than me and have knowledge I don’t have. I really enjoy your videos and advice and take it seriously. I also Love cats so I’m Always happy when I see your cats!!!!!!!!! Cats Rule. Ok, sorry for such a long comment.

Philip. Thanks for this. Excellent. Please do a video about mic wind protection. I research, find all the reviews, buy, then try out a new mic only to find that the wind shield is useless. Then spend even more time and frustration finding an effective dead rat etc. No reviews are ever done on the wind protection supplied with mics. Just got the Rode NTG Video mic to replace a Shure whose fixed protection is poor to find wonderful audio quality but I can't take it outside!

I just got my FX6 and was looking into this monitor to see what touch screen features that it could replicate. I hope they have updated the firmware to support touch focus now. Will have to check. It should be a simple business decision for Sony to create a 5” and a 7” monitor for the FX6, I don’t know why they would do this, such an easy up sell. Sony are you reading this? Or make sure it provide all the specs to third party companies to allow full support. It would just add value to their products.

Great video! I've been considering the monitor for a while, and have been trying to figure out a solution to properly mount a nato rail (don't want to use port keys own monitor mounts and their locating pin system seem to be proprietary and not work with the arri standart) Have you figured out a way get two points of contact or use the slots for safety? i noticed that your longer rail was not on straight and thought you might have found a solution

I don't use Zebras so it's not something I've come across. The thing with Portkeys is you just ask them to add something like an option for zebras to be for "raw" image. They changed and improved a number of things before I was happy to make this video.

That is true. They say that they cannot change that due to the limitation of the LH5P chip. Not sure if this is also true if the model that Phillip is reviewing. Zebras also only go down to 85%.
