About this deal

The LH5P II is equipped with a lot of software built-in, you are able to adjust picture color, temperature, layout and more to have it display a single just the way you want it, you can also flip the image on the horizontal or vertical axis making this a perfect companion for those for are shooting vertical video for social media. You can also set the display gamut to an option of your choice from bypass, Rec.709, P3-DCI, or P3-D65. You also have the option to upload your own LUT to the monitor so you can see exactly how your video is going to look before applying it in the editing studio, which is a massive time saver when on set. Split screen monitoring: you can use two different video sources and several different split-screen options on the monitor. Two screens can use the same 3D LUT file and you can split the screen: dual horizontal, dual vertical, horizontal and vertical, and you can even crop the second split screen from the same source to show more detail. Altogether, this is a really interesting and flexible feature.

There is an HDMI input and output, which can put out a 1920 x 1080p60 signal at 60Hz. Tools include 3D LUT support to 17grid, anamorphic squeeze with fine squeeze control, and UI from the camera. It also has all the bells and whistles you'd expect—Zebras, Luma Histograms, and false color. Will prompt “access failed”, you can try again at this time, if not, you can restart the device to try once. The LUT file name is required to be in English or numeric to avoid unrecognized, resulting in incorrect file names. A 3D LUT is a simple but very powerful way to apply a color grade to footage. 3D LUT files are quite small, (often around 1MB) and can be produced with almost any color grading software, and can be saved on to USB flash drive for use on the monitor or at any point in post-production.As with the LH7P monitor, the BM7IIDS has the same custom freeze frame feature for match cuts, 3D LUT HDMI output, anamorphic lens calibration, customized peaking range, custom rectangular image crop, and brightness and RGB signal detection before and after loading 3D LUTs. Additionally, it has a false color and ARRI false color feature with customizable overexposure and underexposure IRE scales. BM7IIDS Monitor – Source: Portkeys The price of the Portkey PT6 instantly makes this a bargain considering the monitor’s quality and features you get. The overlays, such as peaking, zebras and false colour, are standard features that anyone shooting video will benefit from. The ability to monitor in Landscape or portrait is also incredibly handy. Camera Parameters: if you are shooting with the external monitor on top of the camera, this feature will come in handy to see the most important camera parameters on a bigger screen.

New 5-inch Portkeys PT5 Field Monitor Announced - 4K Shooters

In the options for all cameras, I switched off the camera overlays so that I had a clean feed coming through to the monitor, so the only overlays were those placed by the monitor itself. Powerwise, in this test, I opted for Sony NP-F type batteries but also popped in one of the Canon LP-E6 batteries, which worked just as well. Customized peaking range: you can choose a certain peaking frame for regional peaking of your shot. With a complete set of tools with simple operation and professional functions, all operations can be completed with one touch. Video assistance functions include focusing, framing and exposure tools ( RGB and Luma waveform, RGB histogram, brightness histogram, audio meters, peak focus, zoom, zebra pattern, false color, safety frame, etc.) and a flexible 3D LUT loading tool that you can customize the upload of the .cube file, HDR monitoring and anamorphic widescreen recovery functions. Video support is offered up to 4K 30p (4096 x 2160 at 24Hz) and can display 100% P3 and Rec.709 in 10-bit. Unfortunately, we're not clear if this is true 10-bit or 8-Bit+FRC like the PT5. According to our sources, all signs point to the PT6 being true 10-bit, which is a likely change.

Anamorphic De-squeeze: the LH7P monitor supports anamorphic lens correction in a ratio of 1.00x / 1.33x / 1.42x / 1.50x / 1.60x / 1.66x / 1.85x / 2.00x / 2.35x. Moreover, you can dial in a custom de-squeeze factor ranging between 0.25x and 4.00x. At the rear of the monitor, you will find the battery plate to power the PortKeys PT5. You can use Sony NP-F batteries or Canon LP-E6. Also, you can power it with an external battery via the DC barrel input port. The PortKeys PT5is a lightweight – 0.28lbs/130grams – entry-level professional monitor for filmmakers who are looking for a compact on-camera monitor. Full HD Display JPG Picture Custom Freeze Frame: just like the MT22DS and BM7IIDS, the LH7P can do a freeze frame in 16:9 1920×1080. After you captured an image, you can compare it to your real-time video with a semi-transparent image on your screen. This could be useful for any match cuts or transition frames, that can be easily created with this feature.At the right side of the monitor, there is an On/Off switch, a DC 7.4-24V barrel input/output port that you can use to power the monitor or power your camera. Finally, there is a USB-A port for future firmware upgrade, loading your own LUTs, or charge your smartphone (5V output). Dual-use Battery Plate

Alongside the basics are plenty of other helpful visual guides that will enable you to monitor better the footage you’re shooting. For me, one of the biggest benefits is the ability to overlay LUTs so that when shooting using a Log profile, you can see the effects of certain LUTs on the footage. These LUTs need to be loaded onto the PT6 using a USB key, but the process is easy, and the touchscreen interface makes finding your way around easy. The Portkeys PT6 is an ultra-compact fully, featured monitor for your camera. It’s a pro-grade screen designed to get a decent representation of what you’re shooting rather than relying on the often flakey reproduced image that your on-camera screen will show. Now the PortKeys PT6 Livestreaming Assist Monitor has been released, which offers livestreaming assists while not breaking the bank. While it won't stream your video from the monitor itself, the built-in tools will help you prep an image for streaming. Let’s take a deeper look to find out what that means. Sampling: the LH7P supports 4K over-sampling to 1080p, just in case your camera can’t perform this internally. The result is a high-resolution and highly-detailed 1080p video signal on your monitor. Monitoring the video is just part of what this dedicated monitor does; it’s also bigger than your camera’s screen and offers increased brightness, resolution and colour depth so that you don’t just get a good idea of how the image will look, you actually get a near as perfect idea of what your capturing.Support for Tilta Nucleus-N/M motors: with the BM7IIDS monitor, you can control the Tilta Nucleus-M and Nucleus-N lens motors with a wired connection between the monitor and the motor, while also displaying the focus scale. Setting up the small Portkeys PT6 couldn’t be easier, and through the test, I tried the monitor out with a Sony A7 III, Canon EOS R7 and Canon EOS R5 C. The set-up process for each was identical, with the HDMI feed plugging directly into the side of the monitor, and then once everything was switched on, the feed from the monitor appeared on the screen.
