I have had this PORTKEYS BM5 Monitor 2200 (nit) for a while but if the question is what would I think now If I found it under the tree this holiday? Would it be Candy or Coal? Hi my name is Keith Bennett and if we have not met thanks for joining in. I'm excited you're here! The Story about this Monitor.... PORTKEYS BM5 with the Bluetooth BT1 I originally planned on building a Video Production rig around a Blackmagic Design 4K or even the 6k Cinema Camera. That's how I heard about the BM5 and the option to remote control by the Bluetooth Module. It sounded like the perfect monitor and I was going to use it on my new 4K/6K rig. I did as much research as I could here on YOUTUBE. Then COVID happened! I had already ordered the BM5 Monitor and a small rig monitor mount (still in the box) But everything changed. I was now going to focus on my in-home studio and a Canon EOS-R was a better in studio tool with my lenses, and my other two cameras the 5D Mark IV and my 5D Mark III. I already invested in a bunch of Canon L Lenses. So my focus changed, I purchased a Canon Refurbished EOS-R when the price dropped this spring 2020? Then a ATEM MINI PRO and the list goes on of stuff to surround the Switcher. Check out my new series on my in Studio Gear. So, does it get the CANDY RATING? Let us just at that it will once I can finally get the rig I want built. Without being able to use the BT-1 it has been a little frustrating for me. It’s not PORTKEYS FAULT at all it’s a great monitor and it does hit all the buttons for me except one. That's the touch screen. at times I swipe up or down and to the side and nothing works, the touch zoom is not that great either. I'm sure I'm like most people are when they spend that type of money, it should perform like the "1966 Batmobile"complete with rocket booster. Would I recommend it! YES, I do because It’s the right size, loaded with options like SDI in and out and HDMI, I love the power out feature and once you add the optional $30.00 US power supply, it’s perfect for portability and in studio use. Did I already say it is loaded with scopes and cool features? Just make sure you need the BT-1 Bluetooth Module before you add the extra $100.00 to the already just under $500.00 US cost. Order the power adapter instead. Lots of Links: Affiliated Amazon Links are below and your shopping with them is very much appreciated!
