Sony CA4000 Operation Manual page 4

Dynamic focus
Displays a 4K resolution-specific focus point. This displays a
marker in the viewfinder, derived from the luminance signal
and color signal, for the area where 4K resolution signal is
being output (valid when shooting in 4K only).
Various viewfinder functions
Wide variety of viewfinder display options
You can display configuration settings, in addition to operation
messages, a zebra pattern, a safety-zone marker, and a
center marker in the viewfinder. Also, there are indicators
along the top and bottom of the viewfinder, such as a tally
lamp, battery warning indicator, and an indicator that warns
you when one or more settings are not within standard range.
Menu-based operation function
You can make selections and settings related to viewfinder
display items, safety zone marker, center marker, and screen
size marker, etc. quickly and easily using the menu displayed
in the viewfinder or on an external monitor.
HD prompter function
The CA4000 supports an HD prompter function where HD-SDI
equivalent digital data is sent from the HDCU2000/2500 to the
CA4000, separate from the return video signal.
User-friendly operation
PMW-F55 design unity
The CA4000 employs a design unity with that of the
PMW-F55, following the modular design of the PMW-F55
series.
This ensures stable operation, even during shoulder
operation.
Handle slide mechanism
The handle can slide forward/backward, without requiring any
tools. This allows the operator to find the right balance when
shooting for the lens (2/3-type lens, PL mount lens, or other
diverse lenses) mounted on the camera.
The viewfinder position also slides forward/backward together
with the handle (when a PMW-F55 is mounted).
Assignable buttons
Any desired function, such as electronic color temperature
conversion, can be assigned to the assignable button on the
rear panel.
This button can be set to operate in conjunction with the
assignable switch on viewfinders, such as the HDVF-EL75
and DVF-EL100, to control the image in the viewfinder (image
magnification, for example) from the CA4000.
Also, the two buttons on the top of the handle are assignable
buttons that can be used to control lens zoom and other
functions.
USB connector
Connects to a USB flash drive for importing/exporting menu
configuration settings and other data.
