I'm hoping someone here can chime in on the issues that I'm encountering trying to sync up the timecode on 3 GH5's for an upcoming shoot using the Panasonic Image app and the Time Sync feature. The idea is to sync all 3 cameras to my phone's time and set the timecode to Free Run/Time of Day.
The method works perfectly with the GH4 as seen in the video below:

The problem I'm having is that the Panasonic Image app does not seem to work with the 'Time Sync' feature under the 'Geotagging' section with the GH5. I'll follow the methods in the video of connecting via Bluetooth to the camera. On the app it will allow me to click on Geotagging, then Time Sync, then 'Select an access point to connect to', I turn on the wifi on the camera and connect my phone to the camera's wifi, but it will freeze on 'Connecting to camera...'
I think this may be a bug with the Panasonic Image app and the GH5, but perhaps others out there can test this and find another way to get the Time Sync feature on the app to work. Thanks!
