Flicker free on/off
Flicker free can be switched off to bypass the digital frame
store and have the video assist output with no delay.
The film camera runs normally at a different speed than the
video assist. E.g. the film camera runs at 24 fps and the
video assist at 25 fps for PAL or 30 fps for NTSC. This
would normally cause different brightness of the video
image. To eliminate this so called flicker, video images are
stored at the speed of the film camera into the video
frame storage and recalled in the speed of the video
system. This storage might cause a slight delay, which is
not desirable in some crucial time conditions, e.g. motion
control or shooting of a pop video. Therefore it is possible
to switch the flicker free system off. This will eliminate the
delay. However, flicker will occur in this mode.
