11. Video-Assist-System
The video-assist-system delivers a high-quality,
nearly flickerfree monitor image for PAL or NTSC. The
video-assist-system consists of the video set, the 1/2"
color video camera CCD 2-FR and the anti-flicker pro-
cessor AFP-2. The video set consists of the video
carrying handle and the video optic together. These
transmit the image from the beamsplitter to the video
camera. The video set is supplied already mounted.
With the corresponding video optic the video-assist-
system can also be used on the ARRIFLEX 535B and
the 35 III.
The brightness of the video image is automatically
adapted to the lighting conditions. This balancing can
also be carried out manually. The white balance is
designed for standard values for interior and outside
filming.
The technology for image-storing used in
this system enables reproduction of a stored image or
the alternation between the real and the stored image -
e.g. to align the camera to an earlier scene or for stop
trick filming.
When using several video cameras the video-assist-
system can also be synchronized by an external video
signal.
The change-over from the color to the black/white CCD-
camera is simple and requires no subsequent adjust-
ment. The following beamsplitters are available:
- 20% BW-video 80% viewfinder
- 50% color video 50% viewfinder
