Perfect timing Joseph! I ordered mine yesterday after Atomos put up a video showing that my Z9 is now supported. An EL zone video from you would be great, even though I have seen many on the topic you have a very pedagogical approach that appeals to me way of understanding concepts and how products work! 👍🏾🙏🏾 🏴🇸🇪🇹🇹
That’s a compliment and a half, thank you!
It would be so nice if you can make another video explaining the EL zone!!!🙏
You can’t touch to focus if you use a usbc powered camera because the USBC output is too weak to power most cameras. So R5C etc is out.
you literally saw me do that in this video, on a LUMIX S5IIx -- touch to focus while powered over USB-C. I don't use or own Canon; the R5 is on the compatibility list but the R5C is not. As with any product, its important to verify that your camera is supported.
Can you move the spot luminance around the screen, and do the camera controls work with the BGH1?
Spot luminance isn't supported, no. The BGH1 probably works for camera control but I haven't tried it, sorry. It's not on the list but its fully supported by LUMIX Tether.
Great review!
I got the s5 and s5II With the ninja V, tap to focus Will work someday With the ninja?

Thanks! I haven’t heard any discussion of this. I’d assume it’s not possible but I don’t actually know.
That video made my day, hearing EL Zone is available is awesome. It is something I requested from Atomos when I got the Shinobi2 a while back. Everything I’ve seen about it makes sense. The idea of thinking in F-Stops matches up with my light meter and the way I think about lighting ratios. I’d love it if you did a video about it. I was about to get a different monitor that supports the system but noticed some of the other Atomos products supported it and I was hoping it would come in a firmware update. I’m stoked! Extrashot has a good explanation.
Thanks! Glad to hear you’re so enthusiastic about it. I’ll look up Extrashot!
