WIFI Professional Production Monitor
This app is all one could expect from a full featured production monitor complete with exposure and focus scopes. There is a little lag but given the power you get it is tolerable.
When we have the GH5 hung from a gimbals on a crane in the studio FieldMomitor is priceless as it eliminates the heavy cables we need to get images to the production bench. Heavy HDMI cable inhibit the gamble.
The scopes you get in FieldMomitor are not available in the Panasonic app.
Must Have Vlogging Tool
I really appreciate this app when I’m vlogging and not close enough to my camera to turn it on and off when I want to start another take for ease in editing. The controls are intuitive and fast. I use it with a GH5 and GH5S. Works really well.
Great on iPhone SE, not so great on iPad 7th generation
Hello,
It runs really well on my iPhone SE, but footage got stuck very very often, it’s not latency, it got frozen for a few frames every 2-3 secs. Any tips how to get better transmission on my iPad?
Amazing app... only missing one thing...
I really love this thing for the gh5. Our HDMI port broke so I couldn’t use my SmallHD monitor, but this app solved the issue AND gave me easy access to change settings and record, much like RED’s touchscreen monitors. The ONLY thing I wish this had was a way to daisy chain the feed, so I can use my phone on the camera but I can also send a feed to a field monitor for clients or remote operator. If this was added to the app for multiple devices to be connected, and maybe a “client” version that
Back-button focus?
My Sony is set up for back-button focus. The instructions say I must have AF w/shutter turned on. This prevents back-button focus from working. Other that that the app works as advertised.
Doesn’t work for what I need it for
Basically just wanted to be able to preview the images after I take them on my iPad, emailed the developer to make sure this would work and they responded promptly that as long as the camera shows a preview it will mirror to the app. However, using a sony a7ii it only shows “Capturing image” on the app and then goes away after the image preview is gone from the app.
Edit: Adam was very helpful and apologized for the incorrect info and was willing to give me a refund. I declined as I felt it was
Worth the price
Life saver. Panasonic doesn’t offer external monitor support on the G7 and their official app doesn’t offer full screen monitoring (why???). You could shell out $300 for an atomos recorder (more than I paid for the camera body), or you could spend $20 on this very capable app. It’s surprising usable. I’m not sure if you could rely on this for super professional work, but for my use case it does the job. It seems like the developer maintains the app fairly well, so hopefully this can be a good lo
Dual Screen
Testing iPad 2 and iPhone 13. I tried messaging will have to email, but I was trying to run both off of one camera. I am also still inquiring over black magic? (GH4 GH5 BMPCC4 cams I use)
