  • Hey all, just changed over the backend after 15 years I figured time to give it a bit of an update, its probably gonna be a bit weird for most of you and i am sure there is a few bugs to work out but it should kinda work the same as before... hopefully :)

When i feed color bars from the Epic to the Panasonic LH900 monitor the white chip displays at 75% when out of all my other cameras the white chip displays at 100%. Also, monitor always looks about a stop dark when footage is properly exposed in camera, bomb evf and Red touchscreen.

Is there a reason for this...is there a known low signal coming from HD SDI in Epic? Does anyone have similar experience? Shouldn't there be a standard signal level for monitoring where the white color bar is at 100% on a waveform? Frustrating when trying to match picture to other cameras.
 
I don't have any direct experience but I have heard in the past that Panasonic monitors with epic can be a bit finicky. SDI from epic I know is totally fine.

have you seen the white bar ar 100% IRE on waveform on another brand of monior?
