Other Features - Sony F65 Operation Manual

• A video assist monitor image using Hi/Lo Key, MAG, or
other effects can be selected for output on SDI2, in
addition to the standard LUT.
Note
The SDI1 system supports "Graded ACES" and "Look
Profile" settings that perform color conversion using a
built-in 3D LUT. The F65 employs a 3D LUT with
17×17×17 lattice to obtain a contour line signal for areas
of smoothly varying luminous intensity.
The recording signal is not affected, allowing the
processing to be improved using a color grading tool that
performs color conversion employing a higher-degree 3D
lattice grid.
DVF-EL100 viewfinder connection
Connects to the DVF-EL100 OLED color viewfinder
(option) that displays a high-resolution, accurate color
1)
reproduction image.
1) The DVF-L350/L700 viewfinder is not supported.
Design and shape
New compact design
For a high level of mobility in consideration of various
shooting situations, such as inside a car, the camera is
housed in as compact a body as possible. In addition,
buttons and indicators are laid out to provide a familiar and
intuitive user interface to users of conventional cinema
film cameras.
Dockable system for the SR-R4 Portable Memory
Recorder
A dockable interface system for docking with the SR-R4 is
employed for versatility under shooting conditions and on-
site demands.
Compatible with film-camera accessories
The F65 is designed to be compatible with a variety of
film-camera accessories, giving users a broad array of
choices. These include ARRIFLEX-made bridge plates,
matte boxes, follow focus units, lens focus/zoom/iris servo
control units, and more. These film-camera accessories
can be attached to the F65 without modification, enabling
users who principally work with film to fully utilize their
existing assets.
The F65 is equipped with one 12 V DC and connector one
1)
24 V DC output connector to supply power to accessories
connected to the camera.
1) To supply accessories with 24 V DC power, the camera must have both
12 V DC and 24 V DC supplies, and the CAM POWER switch must be
turned ON.
Assignable buttons
The F65 is equipped with assignable buttons on the side of
the camera head.

Features
The operator can assign frequently used functions, such as
magnifying the image in the viewfinder, to assignable
buttons to call these functions rapidly when working in the
field.
Operational versatility
Cine mode
This mode records video without processing, on the
presumption color grading is performed in post-
production, while applying basic color grading to the VF/
SDI outputs.
In Cine mode, the camera can be operated just like a
conventional film camera.
Custom mode
This mode allows you to adjust the black/white level and
the gain of the main signal when creating images on
location.
This mode also supports camera control by connecting a
remote control unit (RM).
Shutter control
The shutter speed is adjustable in terms of shutter angle.
You can also switch between a mechanical rotary shutter
and an electronic shutter.
Sensitivity adjustment function
In Cine mode, the F65 employs an EI sensitivity indicator
for shooting using a light meter, just as for film cameras, to
enable overexposure/underexposure processing in post-
production.
ASC CDL
American Society of Cinematographers Color Decision
List (ASC CDL) is a format for the exchange of basic color
grading information, recommended by ASC. The CDL
parameters can be specified by importing a CDL file or by
adjusting using the F65Remote Look Plus remote control
application. The adjustments made are not reflected in the
master video signal, but are saved as metadata in the SR-
R4 recorder. When recording, the video can be monitored
on the VF/SDI outputs by applying the values in metadata
to the recorded material.

USB host connectors
The camera is equipped with USB connectors (host) for
connection with an optional Wi-Fi adapter (CBK-WA01)
to enable wireless camera operation from a tablet or other
Wi-Fi capable device.
