I bought the Portkeys Pt5 and for some reason I keep getting a weird noise only when the monitor is connected to my zv-r10 camera. I have no idea why :/ I power it via usb but it doesn't seem to be the reason since if i remove the hdmi connection and just leave the camera powered, there is no background noise. The moment i reconnect the camera via hdmi i get the noise again. It's like a low humming sound, but very noticeable. I am using an external XLR mic connected to a console and set the zv-e10 gain level to 1. Everything works fine till i connect the portkeys monitor, when I get this noise again. anyone facing sth like this ?

Hi Mark, not especially on the Portkeys, but on external rig monitors in general: When I have an external rig monitor connected (via HDMI/Feelworld F6 plus X), then everything on the external monitor is reproduced exactly as it was on the Canon R10 display, except for the 'spirit level', which doesn't make it onto the display. Is this the case with other cameras, too i.e. normal?

Depends on the camera system. Most of them move all the info to the monitor, depending on the settings you set in the camera, this is can often be configured either way.

Hey Mark : ) I wanted to ask you if you know of a better alternative to Canons Image transfer utility software? I am not getting consistent results with the handshake between the computer and camera for whatever reason - it's like it doesn't initiate image transfer at times like it already did or something , without option to say I know you think you already grabbed the goods but you haven't lets let me make that choice it just doesn't do anything.

@@markwiemels Yes wireless I mean it works then it doesn't then it does IMO it has everything to do with the utility side the camera says it is uploading? I was hoping a 3rd party solution as is it is bare bones barely. I should look my brand new M6/viewfinder bundle was missing the USB cable maybe it wasn't supposed to be in there the camera side looks proprietary or different than the on on the M3, yesterday I couldn't find our USB card reader so I ended up switching the memory card from the M6 into the M3 then uploading it with the M3 USB cable LOL good times : )
