I am trying to run tshark -T ek or -T json but the only options available are tshark: Invalid -T parameter. It must be "ps", "text", "pdml", "psml" or "fields". I am sure iI am doing something wrong - any ideas appreciated.

Add output of tshark -v which includes version and platform information.

You will need to upgrade to a newer version of tshark:
Wireshark 2.2.0 Release Notes

The Qt UI, GTK+ UI, and TShark can now export packets as JSON. 
TShark can additionally export packets as Elasticsearch-compatible JSON.

It's not terrible to build from the source.
Definitely make sure to run tools/rpm-setup.sh to get all the dependencies.
