Over the weekend, this thread has become the official record holder for most replies for a topic in the "Industry News & Information" section with - at the time of this writing and including this post - 1637 replies.

But that pales in comparison to other threads like the Komodo one over on RU with 5600+.

Or even the DVX200 thread here a few years back with almost 3000.

Does Premiere have a plugin for them? Or an updated one? (for the 8K vs. the 5.5K CRM)

You can use 'Canon RAW Development' to transcode them if you'd like.
 
Tried them in Edius and the program recognizes them as CRM but the video is black. The previous slo-mo on the beach were fine, but they were mp4.
 
He's whipping the camera around @4:45...not sure which resolution/framerate for that exact shot, but looks very controlled (the file is 4K/24p).

Not a big fan of transcoding, also 1DX Mark III 5.5K CRM didn't work on iMac Pro and Premiere, fans of iMac Pro become from silent to very loud, footage uneditable with lots of dropping frames...now I hope to test IPB from R5/R6, they should work because those of 1Dx Mark III IPB worked. I'm waiting also for A7Siii and new codec of Sony to test.

Might have to check for updates...5.5K CRM works great on my MBP from 2015, but in FCP X.

Wow...new PortKeys monitor for $300 with camera control...not 100% clear but I think you could touch the screen to set autofocus points...which means I'm pretty much set with autofocus for every situation I can think of except racking all the way out

Port keys makes great monitors but be aware they have fans and the sound can be picked up by on camera sound. Don’t know if this version has a fan but I have the older 5 version and it’s got a fan

Another facet of the "Adobe Monthly Premiere Masochist Tax."
You should switch Danilo, a lot of others are. I have three friends
who have all turned off their CC subscription and went to Resolve or FCP X.

Any idea about other monitors with similar camera control? And does your portkeys have it or is this a new thing?
 
Thanks NorBro. Now I understand that the only thing new about this new release is that it's cheaper, HDMI only, and not as bright.

I wonder why I can't find videos demonstrating focus area control with the portkeys on a 5dmkiv or eos r. Probably just not popular with those shooters
 
Portkeys says it provides autofocus control. I just cant tell if that means area selection or only mode selection. For z cam it says touch focus. But that may not mean anything since z cam has no autofocus

I'm assuming this is all based on tethering control for the Canons. I know you can trigger autofocus via your tethering app but I'm not sure you can change where you're focusing

No idea about other monitors. My portkeys you need to purchase an add on module for control but I don't want it because I use manual lenses and don't really need the other functions. The r5 will probably be my first with great useable AF.
