Micro studio 4K G2 Question !

PostMon Mar 10, 2025 12:54 pm

Hello everyone.

I bought a blackmagic micro studio 4K g2 camera. I have two monitors, a blackmagic one that displays the image and the settings menu. The second monitor, a portkey LH5H, displays the image but does not display the settings menu. Why?

With the old BMMCC camera, the one with the same body, everything worked perfectly.

What's weird about this is that it's not like the HUD is metadata. Sure it represents metadata but it's a fully rasterized image. The monitor must somehow be invoking a clean feed command upon connection. The camera does allow control over HDMI so it's probably something in the HDMI-CEC/ARC that's being misinterpreted.

The camera was updated to firmware 9.2 which may resolve this issue.

There is a discussion of this issue over here.
