How to read the waveform and vectorscope (Feelworld F6 Plus firmware update)

[@JohnAldred]

What's your favourite on-camera monitor?

[@mhaustria]

the one on my camera - because I don't use any other :)

[@JohnAldred]

Hah, not always easy to see, though, when shooting video. :)

I just got this Feelworld F6, it comes whith the update. Seems heavy whith my big batterie. Is a shame i cant use the touch screen to focus... but is too much to ask. I used today 5 minutes. I like the way you talk.

[@MatthiasLenardt]

Really good! Thanks for your explanation 👍 Much love 💕 Matthias 👋

[@alvinburrell]

Purchased one based on this, and it is fantastic, actually better than my smallHD 5

[@Rawrawproductions]

Amazing thank you for sharing

[@JohnAldred]

You're welcome, hope it helped!

[@jolyoncox]

Thanks John. Really appreciate the video. Yes, I'd like the flesh line on the vectorscope too....maybe in firmware. Cheers.

It's pretty crazy that you can add this via firmware

[@JohnAldred]

Yeah, I'll be honest, I didn't think it had the processing power to deal with it (or the storage space along with all the other stuff it already did). A previous firmware bumped up the number of stored LUT slots to 50 as well.

Great video.

Thanks for the video

[@JohnAldred]

No problem, hope it helps! :)

[@BorchOka]

thank you!!! 👍 👍 👍

[@JohnAldred]

Not a problem, glad it helped! :)

Can the size of the waveform be changed? It's taking up too much screen space.

how to customize my shortcut menu on this monitor i need the false color on my shortcut menu

[@JohnAldred]

Once you slide it up, double tap on the one you want to change. It adds left and right buttons you can tap to cycle through the possible options. When you've picked the one you want, you should be able to tap anywhere else on the screen and it'll save it. :)

[@cplim3416]

John Aldred thanks for replying! I literally just accidentally sort it out this morning!

[@jolyoncox]

@@JohnAldred Thanks John! Just what I was looking for!

[@kingzabotv]

Would you recommend the andycine a6 plus or the feelworld f6 plus?

[@JohnAldred]

As far as I can tell, they're the same unit, just one has Andycine branding on it.

[@AdamDumaguin]

Hi! How does the f6 plus hold up today 2021? I'm in the market for an external monitor and the f6 plus looks really goood. Thanks!

[@JohnAldred]

It holds up just fine. It's as good today as it was when it was released. Feelworld has released some other models since then that offer similar features (some have advantages like brighter screens, some have features missing but they may not be relevant for you needs), although I haven't compared the prices lately, but they're worth looking into. I still use the F6 Plus as my main on-camera field monitor.

[@AdamDumaguin]

@@JohnAldred Great! Can I also ask, is the monitor usable outdoors?

[@JohnAldred]

Sure. I use it outdoors. You might need to use the hood on a real sunny day, though. :)

[@AdamDumaguin]

@@JohnAldredthank you! big help! :)

[@sezzivideo]

Desview R7

[@JohnAldred]

Interesting, I hadn't seen that one. It looks quite similar in spec to the F6 Plus, albeit a tad bigger. Price doesn't look bad, either!

[@danielkeane1225]

Firmware has bricked my monitor :(

[@JohnAldred]

Ack! That doesn't sound good! I'd contact Feelworld or the seller you got the monitor from. There may be a way to override and reinstall the firmware to fix it.

[@danielkeane1225]

@@JohnAldred Yeah already on it, the issue with in monitor firmware upgrades is times like this when you cant roll back manually through usb or something :(

[@MyMegaTasks]

@@danielkeane1225 update?

[@danielkeane1225]

@@MyMegaTasks Kept turning it on and off for about 7-8mins until eventually it booted up

[@MyMegaTasks]

@@danielkeane1225 hard resets are a Godsend honestly lol. Buying mine off a cheezy website man wish me luck. Btw how often do u even use the monitor? Would you say it improved your work?
