Adam Kuźniar Posted February 21, 2019 Share Posted February 21, 2019 @BrunoCH @androidlad I just got the monitor and I've noticed something - does your tilt arm also has a little wiggle/play in the coldshoe of the camera? I screw it in all the way and it's not sliding but it seems like the metal part is smaller than the coldshoe so it's able to wiggle around in there, left and right.

But I don't use it because the miniUSB connection is on the side of this tilt arm and I power the monitor by usb with an Anker 26000.

persol Posted March 31, 2019 Share Posted March 31, 2019 I tried everything mentioned here to get the LUTs onto my SWIT CM55-C but no success. It always says "No Device" after choosing "Load LUT File -> User LUT". I tried formatting the card on my mac and also in the X-T3 camera, also different LUTs. Any more ideas?

It seems that the swit only accepts 3x17 LUTs on a FAT 32 card. I think the recent Macs and the Xt3 format the cards in FAT 64. I got the success with a card formatted on my old nikon D5200 (I am sure it’s FAT 32 on this camera) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fat32 and use some kind of LUT Calculator or converted to get your luts to 3x17 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thpriest Posted April 1, 2019 Share Posted April 1, 2019 What's the monitor like for focussing? I bright light (with sunhood)? I'd be using it with a GH5 in 4k (50p and 25p 10bit). I want something better than the EVF Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd be using it with a GH5 in 4k (50p and 25p 10bit). I want something better than the EVF That was the main reason I bought it - just having a 5 inch screen up in the face makes focusing a breeze. I shoot a lot with the Sigma 18-35 at f/1.4 and the percentage of missed focus came down a lot after I started using this monitor. It also has peaking and all the assists + you can zoom in the picture during recording which comes in clutch if you're shooting an interview for example and just want to double triple check the focus after you already started recording.

giorgos Posted April 28, 2019 Share Posted April 28, 2019 Since the firmware update I have an "error" white screen almost a every time I use the monitor, and I have to reboot it in order to use it again. Does anyone else have the same problem? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anything you specifically like or dislike about it? I'm looking into a affordable monitor for my G80 and the main reason why I want to pick this one up is for LUT monitoring @Adam Kuźniar Do you see any significant lag/ latency with the G80 and this monitor?

Does anyone else have the same problem? This is exactly why I haven't installed it, it's not on their website, it's some file some guy uploaded and he didn't even answer my question about where he got it from.

I did and it's definitely there but I almost never notice it when actually shooting. Last sunday I shot a small concert and then it was noticeable, because I could hear the drums hit before I could see them, but again, it didn't bother me that much.

giorgos Posted April 30, 2019 Share Posted April 30, 2019 There is a fix if anyone else installed the "latest" firmware and notices errors. I contacted Swit and, after asking me where did I find the latest firmware, they sent me a file to downgrade the firmware which is the second file @androidlad had attached in his post JTH5500_UN108v01.bin Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oliver Daniel Posted April 30, 2019 Share Posted April 30, 2019 Is there any way to adjust the color of the display? I've got one and the color is quite a lot warmer than what the camera LCD is seeing. Also the highlights seem a lot brighter and steeper than the camera monitor, makes it hard to judge the image.
