HDMI issue

Hi there, 

I just got a DJI video transmission system and want set it up with my GFX 100 II. 

The problem is, that it doesn't work when I connect the HDMI cable to the transmitter. 

The camera display goes on and off about every second and there is no video transmission. 

Has anyone had the same issue? 

I have checked the following:

- the HDMI video resolution is set to FHD 16:9 30fps

- HDMI output settings: output info display is set to OFF

- HDMI output settings: HDMI rec control is set to OFF

- HDMI output settings: RAW output settings set to OFF

- The latest firmware is installed on both the camera and the DJI transmitter 

- Both the camera and transmitter have fully charged battery 

- Video transmission from another camera works [using a different cable, though A <-> B ]

I have tried 2 different HDMI cables and tomorrow I'll test it with another "ultra-fast" one. 

Omitting the transmitter and connecting the camera directly to the DJI High-Bright Remote Monitor works perfectly with both cables I've tried. 

Have you heard about any HDMI problems with Fujifilm cameras? 

Do you have any suggestions?

A short 8K cable didn't help either. 

Apparently there is an HDMI handshake problem between the GFX and the DJI transmitter. Not sure if this is a Fujifilm or DJI issue. 

I eventually connected the two with an SDI converter. Another device that requires power and makes an already chunky rig even bigger and more complicated. I only hope that one of the manufacturers releases soon a firmware update that solves the problem. 

I found more posts on the DJI forum complaining about the same thing with various Fujifilm cameras. 

If anyone has had success without an SDI converter, please comment.

      Please Advise On Broken X-a5 Shutter

      Please Advise On Broken X-a5 Shutter

      By Gotham · Posted

      Somehow my shutter fell off my X-a5. On Amazon, there are a number of camera shutter buttons for Fuji cameras. My first thought was that I could just purchase one of these and be ready to go. But after checking these out, it appears that these shutter buttons are for cameras with a screw hole in the shutter button and the X-a5 doesn't have this kind of shutter and even if it did, the shutter is gone.  I called Fuji and they wouldn't even discuss it or accept my photo above to view it, they said I had to send it in which I'm not ready to do. One more update... I just stuck a pin through the center opening of the small center hole and the shutter activated and took a picture. Seems like there could possibly be something to attach there, like a replacement release to remedy this. Based of my explanation and what you can see on this scan, can someone advise me what I need to purchase or what I need to do to resolve this? Thank you.

      Are you certain the spot is on the inside and not some small amount leftover from the spot you cleaned? Maybe try a different brand of lens cleaner, but make sure it is safe for lenses so that the lens coatings are not removed. Even weather resistant lenses can get dust inside, the seals can only keep out so much dust and zoom lenses are known to get dusty on occasion. More so than prime lenses do. Weather resistant means more sealing, but achieving perfect sealing is tough to get. It is also possible the dust has been there from the time it was manufactured and you are only now noticing because of the white dot. Does the dust show up in any of your photos? As far as cleaning cost goes, your local camera repair shop will be able to give you some estimates, prices will be different depending on where you are.
