Where it looked like it lacked detail was the boat, if you added a bit of contrast it would sharpen up the boat and make it pop a bit.

I have it setup for 1080p or auto. It works perfectly in 30Hz modes like 1080p60 and 4k, but when I put it in 24Hz mode for Cinema 4K the output stops working.

I have one of these that I ripped open and converted to use on the copter. When in 4K it gets a little wonky, but it still works. And it works great otherwise.
My HDMI converter wouldn't work on 24P so I bought one of these and it has been working...on and off and wanted to see if anyone else has been having similar problems.
The trouble started when occasionally the screen would over expose the display until it was almost white......Then it would slowly come back to the correct colour. This happened a few times per shoot until a couple of days ago, we loaded it up for a second shoot and the display wouldn't come on....No test screen just dead so we canned the shoot and packed up and went home. I try it again at home and it's working again.
Anyhow I have another 2 coming so I'll have a spare this time!!
Has anyone had anything like this happen with theirs and is anyone running power in from the USB or running it on the input from the HDMI??
Thanks
Lance

“Panasonic new firmware will improve 96fps slow motion and the 4K mode. Including internal compressed raw, 12 and 14 bit uncompressed hdmi”.
Been trawling the forums.. and lots of wild claims.. but if this is true.. would be amazing..

Not quite the upgrade people were expecting.. and not available until Oct
Panasonic releases new firmware updates for their FZ1000 and GH4 cameras
In company with their recent camera and lens announcements, Panasonic has released firmware updates for two of their popular cameras. This new firmware adds the same functionality to both models, with the addition of their 4K Photo Mode.
4K Photo Mode is a, "new way of photography that Panasonic is proposing", which allows photographers to capture 8-megapixel still images directly from their 4K video recordings, which offer full EXIF data, just like a standard photo. This new mode is designed to reduce post processing time, allowing users to quickly and easily strip still images from 4K video, without the need of a computer.
Other improvements that this new firmware offers are 4K video at 23.98p (MP4, AAC), enhanced ISO and flash emission control, and expanded connectivity options; like USB tether for remote control.
Both firmware updates are scheduled to be available sometime in October, 2014.

Hey Guys I came across this and was curious if it would work with the GH4. I use the same one except for a mini HDMI for my sony nex5n and it works great. Just thought it would be a slick clean setup instead of the hdmi2av box.

HEELLPPP!!!
We just gota GH4 and are on a 4 day shooting far from home.Guess that I can't get signal from the GH4 when recording. I have the mini HDMI2AV converter wich is ment to support 1080p:dejection:
I cant upload aphoto of it for some reason but its the same as Steve Mallers one,but HDMI2AV and not viceversa.
Many thanks in advance!!!

Have you read through this very thread to ensure your camera settings are set properly?

Also what hdmi cable are you using as some don't work very well.

Read through it several times but I may be missing out on something..
These are the tests I runned:
1-Camera: TV aspect 16:9 / HDMI mode 1080p/ 3D playback 2D / Viera Link off / HDMI Rec Output bit mode 4:2:2 8bit/ Info display ON 4k downconvert 1080p or auto.
When connected directly with HDMI cable to TV it Works, so cable should be ok?
The only view I get through the converter is playback at 480p(ntsc) and 576p(pal)
Thanks for the quick response!

Setup looks OK
I know you are prob NTSC but have you tried putting the HDMI2AV to progressive, also maybe have a play about with your FPV monitor changing that back/forth just to see if it works.

Hi Quinton,
My HDMI2AV only allows NTSC or PAL, don´t know what you mean by setting it to progressive, do you mean PAL?
Puting monitor on first and then camera, viceversa, dont work...

Sorry yes I meant PAL
Do you have a yellow video lead that you can plug directly into your monitor from the HDMI2AV that you can use to check to see if its working correctly.
Sorry do not know what you are using for your view back to your monitor but I would make sure it works first of all "hard wired" without any wireless transmission, not sure what you are using for your FPV setup what wireless monitor/transmitter/cables.
That way you can rule out that the problem is coming from the GH4

We have conection with the VTX when playback on 576p so I gues that the hardwear is all good, the only problema is when I set the camera to 1080, then it doesnt work, not even on the playback mode,we only get thesignal through with 480 0r 576, anything else wont work...(excuse my spelling..)
