False Color improvements:
• The underlying image can now be rendered in color instead of grayscale. Control it with the Color switch in the False Color panel.
• False Color can be computed pre-LUT or post-LUT. Control it with the False Color switch in the Level panel.
• The false color image now shows Focus Assist effects.
Changes for Canon cameras:
• Audio meters displayed for more models, like the R6II.
• Non-adjustable controls were sometimes shown as adjustable for some cameras; this is now fixed.
• Shutter & aperture status decoding changed; should be more reliable for all Canons.
• Updated for iOS/iPadOS 26.
• Fixed Panasonic 17:9 display (was shown as 1.86:1, now 1.89:1).
• Fixed LUT import from email and iCloud Drive.
• FieldMonitor connects more reliably to recent Panasonics.
• “GH6 Forced Reset” is now “Panasonic Forced Reset” as it applies to GH6 and to newer cameras as well.
• Custom Markers now flip and rotate with the image.
• Teradek feeds can be converted from YCrCb to RGB so that LUTs and Focus Assist can be used: Settings > Teradek Options > Convert Images to RGB. RGB Conversion increases battery drain, and lowers frame rate on older, slower iDevices (especially those with A8 or earlier CPUs) — so turn it on only when you need to use LUTs or Focus Assist.
• Support for Teradek Serv and HEVC encoders (Cube 755).
• “network timeout” displayed when Teradek feed stops for 2+ seconds.
• Aspect ratio fixes for Teradek feeds.
Settings layout bugs fixed.
Fixes missing focus-point display for EOS R5 and similar cameras.
Fixed a bug where frame marker aspect ratios were blank and safe areas showed as 0% in the Mark Control Panel.
• Panasonic connections maintained when you return to Source screen, so you can change settings or open a different camera without the camera saying “not connected to the app” and blanking its HDMI output momentarily.
• GH6 Forced Reset now resets only on first connection or when a 10-second timeout is detected.
• FieldMonitor’s name on GH6's connection confirmation screen and Wi-Fi history screen is now correct, and not some weird sequence of random characters.
• Sony A7iv: recording start/stop working. With iOS 15+, you can use the Scan function’s text recognition to connect to the camera’s network.
• Panasonic GH6 support (see website for details).
• Now works with Panasonic GH5 II.
• More reliable start-up with all Panasonics.
Bug fix: stopped “What’s new” from appearing every single time the app is launched!
• “QR” is now called “Scan”.
• On iOS 15, Scan can detect Canon and Fujifilm SSIDs and passwords using text recognition, and automatically connect to the camera’s network.
• Control panels fade away while a slider is used, so you can more easily see what you’re adjusting.
• Image rotation button in the Image control panel (iOS 10+ only).
• Anamorphic desqueeze direction control in the Image control panel.
• Desqueeze adjustment control panel, so you can fine-tune desqueeze to remove “anamorphic mumps”.
If your Sony or Panasonic lets you connect with a QR code, FieldMonitor can now read it: tap QR on the source screen (requires iOS 11+).
• Panasonics: added Cancel Track button when focus tracking is active.
• Improved X-T3 exposure mode detection in video mode.
• Extra REC Emphasis: add a red frame or red background when camera is recording.
• CANCEL TRACK button to turn off focus tracking on Sony A1 and A7Siii.
Fixed a Settings display bug on some iDevices.
• FieldMonitor runs on M1 (Apple Silicon) Macs.
• Teradek video displays in Split View & Slide Over modes on modern iPads.
• Maximum Aspect Ratio control renders properly when Assistive Bold Text is enabled.
• Focus can be set even when camera controls are hidden, as long as Camera Controls are enabled.
• Sony A7Siii: tap and hold to set focus point (works in movie mode only. There is no onscreen feedback; the focus area is not shown).
• Teradek: you can connect in Live:Air mode as well as Quickview, TDS, and RTP/RTSP modes.
Minor cosmetic update for iOS 14 compatibility.
• Canons: FieldMonitor no longer leaves controls disabled when you quickly press and release the shutter button to stop recording.
• Panasonics: adjusting video gain while recording should now work on GH4s in dB mode; improved control response for Synchro Scan settings.
• Canon EOS camera support.
• You can swap shutter and iris control positions, or have them automatically match how they're shown on your camera (change this in the Settings menu).
• You can change the name FieldMonitor uses for camera control, so if you have multiple iDevices, you can give each one its own name (important for Canons).
• Fujifilm: in photo review, tap OK to return to live view. Photo Review Time has been moved from Fujifilm Display Defaults to main Settings menu; it is used for both Canon and Fujifilm cameras.
Bug fix: several camera option settings were missing their switches. They have been restored.
