A simple Field monitor app with anamorphic options for Lumix cameras
GMonitor is a simple Field Monitor application for Wifi capable Lumix cameras like the Lumix G6,7,81,85, GX8, GX80/85,GH4/5. Simply enable wifi on the camera and connect the app with camera. After connection you can view the live view fullscreen on your Android device. (GH3 is not working correctly!)
You have the option for different display modes including anamorphic desqueeze. Or you can display crop markers for 1:1.85, 1:2.35 or 1:2.40 aspect ratios on 16:9 display.
If you are using V-Log you can enable a View-Lut. Use Peaking for better control of your focus.
Double tap on display to hide/unhide controls
If Peaking or Zebra is enabled on the camera you can also view it on your Android
As the Lumix cameras only support 640*480 resolution over the Wifi connection the image is scaled on your device.
This app was tested on Samsung S4, Xperia Z & Nexus 7 (2013). It may not work on all Android devices. If your device cannot make a connection please disable G3/G4/LTE networks as some newer devices default to a connection with internet. If you directly connect your camera to the smartphone this is a very common reason for connection problems.
