In this video I take a look at the new Movnorm Operating System from PortKeys. I do a complete walk through of all of the settings and features available when running Movnorm on my PortKeys LH7P and demonstrate how it interacts with my Sony FX3 when doing wireless camera control.
Download the Movnorm firmware from PortKeys: www.portkeys.com/firmware-upg...
----------------------------------------------
Update: 13/04/24
I had a response from PortKeys about the removal of the option to have exposure data shown before or after the 3D LUT. I was told that the LH7P does not support this feature however the LH5PII should have it and it will be restored in a future firmware version.
I find it weird that PortKeys say the LH7P doesn't support this feature when it had it with the previous firmware. It is especially frustrating as the LH7P currently shows exposure readings after the LUT is applied and the LH5PII shows it before the LUT is applied. Not being able to switch either of them makes it awkward if you use both monitors as they behave differently!

Hi Paul, is there a way to download and install the previous UI version? The features such as focus tracking is a bit nerve racking for me as I run and gun for weddings, and the previous version looked a lot more ergonomical for quick navigating.

@focusmedia2465 3 месяца назад

I had considered purchasing this monitor before but I didn’t do it because I didn’t personally like the style and layout of the menu. This new update and your very thorough review has completely sold me now on purchasing this monitor. Thank you tremendously for your time in creating this! 🙏

@JohnnyProfit13 2 месяца назад

@focusmedia2465 I completely agree! What a super intuitive and thorough review. I may also add that the speed in which you teach is superb, at least for me. Too many content creators go so fast. I hit pause and rewind constantly. You good sir have made Chinese menu options which were previously laborious and difficult to easy to follow and helpful. I would encourage you to do a complete walk through of the Portkeys and the Sony menus. It may be a long video but I would not only watch it and save it, but I would call it a necessity. Thank you both. Not only a great comment that I agree wholeheartedly on, but a fantastic review that has earned a sub and a like the old fashioned way. ❤

By far the best review of the Porkeys LH 5P II with the Movnorm firmware update. I had a bit of difficulty connecting the monitor to my Sony A7R V but finally figured it out. There a couple of controls that don't work with the A7R V but hopefully that will get sorted out as they advertise compatibly with Sony cameras. I ordered a Nitze cage and a Neewer camera monitor mount to mount the monitor on my SmallRig full camera cage. Thanks for the great review.

Wow, Paul, that's the video I needed and expected Portkeys to do at launch.. but they seem to don't worry too much about communicating about their products. The controllable camera settings available like this in a non invasive way is a game changer. Please keep us updated on the ability to have the exposure tools displaying the log image while having a LUT applied... This makes no sense they have removed this. .. It's like two steps forwards... one step backwards.. Thanks for the video

@philvfilms 3 месяца назад

The LH5PII is great, it's a full metal construction and has a few more features including a motion control interface and a fan. The LH5PII is brighter at 2000 nits. If you want SDI then there's others in the range that also offer that.

@philvfilms 3 месяца назад

@Trevellian 4 месяца назад

Another great video Paul. The LH5 seems to be out of stock everywhere, including Portkeys own site. Wonder if they're readying the release of an LH5 III at NAB? Pushed to choose between the two models, do you prefer the 5" with the 2200 nit screen, or the dimmer (1000 nit) but larger 7" version?

@PaulJoy 3 месяца назад

Thanks, glad you like the video. I keep both in my kit bag, if I’m shooting outside I normally fit the LH5P11 and if I’m inside I’ll use the LH7P. I much prefer using the bigger screen but the little LH5 is built like a tank and brighter so better suited to outdoor life.

@romsky 3 месяца назад

Dang, I was getting really excited until the end. Really disappointing that the exposure tools don’t display the log info before the LUT is applied :( really makes it a deal breaker for me. I need to see the ACTUAL data im capturing, not what the lut displays. Very strange to remove such a crucial feature… and why would the 5inch version have it but not the 7!?!

@PaulJoy 3 месяца назад

I agree however there is hope! I'm in discussion with PortKeys and they are considering putting the feature back. Apparently there are some HDMI Out limitations with the LH7P when the exposure information is set to 'Before' hence the decision to remove it however I'd much rather have the option with limitations than have it removed. Fingers crossed!

@thaisdespont 2 месяца назад

Thank you for your video Paul !!! Does this firmware update look similar on all the Portkeys monitor listed on the update website ? Or just the LH7P ?

@soygonzalodiaz 15 часов назад

Hello @PaulJoy. I have this monitor and a Sony A7S3. Since I upgraded the camera's firmware to 3.0, every time I turn off and on the camera, the monitor fails to automatically connect to the Wi-Fi signal, which it used to do before. Do you have this same problem with your FX3? Best.

@nh.create 21 день назад

Great video, you convinced me to buy a LH5P II Just a question though, im not sure if it’s just me but it seems like the image that the monitor is giving is way more contrasty and inaccurate than usual? Played around with the contrast setting but still doesn’t feel right. And yours seems to not require any adjustment. As for right now my feelworld looks way better than my portkeys which doesnt make any sense.

@PaulJoy 18 дней назад

Hi there. A lot will come down to whether you're shooting in Log and if so which LUT you're using. In my experience the Portkeys monitors do need to be adjusted for colour accuracy however I've not changed any contrast settings on mine. Bare in mind also that I'm filming the screen and that doesn't always result in it looking exactly as it does to the eye.

@willvazquez3218 4 месяца назад

Great video. Are the camera controls and the lut mirrored on the HDMI out to a second monitor? I want to be able to see the luts applied and the camera control information on a second monitor connected to this. Thank you.

@PaulJoy 4 месяца назад

Yes they are. I actually find this quite annoying as you can't turn it off. You obviously can't interact with any of it on the second monitor.

@willvazquez3218 4 месяца назад

@@PaulJoy thanks. It would be great to turn it off. But I like the feature because if you have clean feed out of the camera, the client will be able to see when the camera is recording on the video village monitor. Ideally it would be great if the monitor scaled the image down slightly to see the whole thing with all the camera info on the peripheral like on a Venice or Alexa.

@PaulJoy 4 месяца назад

@@willvazquez3218 Yes, I agree and I did suggest that a while back when trying out an early version. I can't complain too much as I also suggested making the waveform warnings adjustable and they actually did that. I'm guessing it would be tricky with the touch controls plus all the overlays if the image was scaled down.

@SnJWildLifeLens 24 дня назад

Hi, Great video, a lot of useful information. I am really considering getting this monitor. One question, does the monitor still display image when I record 4k 120p on my Sony camera? It would be a dealbreaker as I record birds in flight so I require to shoot in 120p. Thanks 😊

@PaulJoy 23 дня назад

It won’t display a 120fps signal but your HDMI output might not be 120fps even when your recording at that framerate. Can you set the HDMI output in camera?

@paoloeustaquio2248 3 месяца назад

This is cool! Portkeys really have awesome value with these features. 😅 Though in my experience, the camera battery drains quickly via cable transmission of my Atomos Shinobi. I'm guessing the wireless option in the Portkeys might drain it faster. 😅😅😅 I know, can be solved with a v90 battery. Though it'll bulk up the gear.

@PaulJoy 3 месяца назад

They have good battery life with NP-F batteries if you want to keep the rig smaller, I just like to use a v-mount because it powers the camera and the monitor so requires less battery levels to worry about.

@paoloeustaquio2248 3 месяца назад

@@PaulJoy is it possible to program the "Tracking Cancel" in one of the button shortcuts? Hopefully yes, it might make the access to the menu quicker rather than tapping the screen frequently. 😅 Thanks, yeah I use NP-F batteries too in my monitor and have at least a few camera batteries in my bag just to keep it as lean/light as I can make it.

@PaulJoy 3 месяца назад

Unfortunately not, only the monitoring functions can be put in to the four shortcuts. I have button 4 on my camera (trash can) set to cancel tracking so likely easier to just use that anyway.

Hi Paul - really useful video! Just got my LH7P, so this is exactly what I've been looking for - thanks! The big issue I'm still having is the wifi connection for camera control between my LH7P and Sony FX3 doesn't automatically re-establish after the camera's been switched off. Every time I switch the FX3 back on, I'm having to go back into the PC Remote Function menu, which is a massive pain in the ****. Please tell me I've missed something, and I don't have to do this every time!

Hi Alex. Yeah, it's a bit of a pain isn't it. It was possible in previous FX3 firmware versions to keep the WiFi running after a reboot but unfortunately that's no longer the case and as far as I know there;'s no way to do it now other than having to do as you describe.

@PaulJoy 2 месяца назад

I’ve never used it for anywhere near that long, if I’m using a gimbal and then it’s only normally running an hours tops between power off. Honesty, I wouldn’t trust it lasting 8 hours, not because the Portkeys system isn’t capable, I wouldn’t trust the Sony system to be that reliable, that’s normally where the problems arise. Rebooting the camera normally fixes any issues.
