Hi all. . .

Is it possible for me to display the Komodo focus box on my PortKeys monitor? Among dozens of other things I can't figure out, that's the one I most crave.

Thanks much. . .

. . . and Happy New Year!

I don't yet own the PortKeys monitor because I haven't been able to part ways with my trusty VideoDevices Pix-E, but I have watched videos on it and the ability to control the Komodo is very tempting. Clearly I'm not the best source since I don't own it, but from what I've seen online I haven't seen any evidence of the focus box coming through the SDI feed to display on the PortKeys, which is a shame. You can see the focus box when using REDControl through the iPhone app, but that obviously has some drawbacks as a monitor. The only thing left I can think to try is to change the SDI signal from a clean signal to the full overlay setting, but I'm not too optimistic that would do the trick. Hopefully PortKeys would add this via firmware at some point!

No Focus Box with Port Key! Also continous AF Is Not Working when using the touch AF on PortKeys Display. Had to send back… I m also looking for a Control device with Focus Box activated…
