No histogram at 60pm

Seems there is no histogram available when shooting UHD 60p ? at 150mbssec No waveform available either. Is there something wrong or is this way it is?
 
The waveform monitor works fine on my camera at UHD 60p -- I use the WFM on every shoot, but do not use the histogram. Were you using the FOCUS ASSIST or the FREEZE FRAME? "The WFM cannot be used while you’re using the FOCUS ASSIST or when using the FREEZE FRAME function."
 
Thanks, I found this in the user manual....This function is not available in the following cases:
j When [REC FORMAT] is set to [UHD 2160/59.94p 150M] or [UHD 2160/50.00p 150M] (l 142) j During Freeze Frame (l 81)
 
Right. Exactly. The thing is a histogram is just one exposure tool. You really should learn to use the WFM, as well. I use mine all the time during setup.

I use the waveform monitor on every shoot and almost every shot. I find it to be the most valuable exposure tools on the camera.

That is bizarre. I checked in previous and my waveform monitor comes on at those settings. I though maybe the first time I had it set at 100M. So I just double checked the setting and it comes on. Do you have the latest firmware update? Why is it working on my camera and the manual says it can't.
