terminals.
• About RAW output:
- A special gamma curve optimized for RAW video is applied to the video output.
- During RAW output, the audio output signal will be 2-channel linear PCM audio (16 bit). We recommend
using instead the 4-channel linear PCM audio (24 bit) that is recorded in the camera with sub recording
(XF-AVC Intra) clips.
- The output signal mapping will be set to Level B.
- RAW output is not available when slow & fast motion recording is activated in crop mode ([On (crop)]).
• When 2K RGB 4:4:4 video is being output from the SDI OUT terminals, video output from the MON. terminals
will be a 2K YCbCr video signal.
Using the MON. Terminals
The digital signal that is output from the MON. terminals includes the video signal, audio signal (4 channels), time
code, metadata and clip file name information*. Additionally, you can output also the camera’s onscreen displays
and various assistance displays (onscreen markers, zebra patterns, peaking, magnification, false color display,
black & white image).
* If the main recording format is set to [ProRes (CFast)] but no CFast card is inserted in the camera, clip file name information will
not be output.

• The options correspond to a video output signal compliant with Level A or Level B of the SMPTE ST 425
standard.
Options

[1920x1080]:
Outputs 1920x1080 (Full HD) video. When the horizontal resolution of the main recording video
configuration is 4096 or 2048, the sides of the image will be displayed letterboxed.
Using the HDMI OUT Terminal
The HDMI
TM
OUT terminal also offers a digital connection and outputs both a video and audio signal. You can
select the maximum resolution of the video signal to output up to 4K video. Additionally, you can output also the
camera’s onscreen displays and various assistance displays (onscreen markers, zebra patterns, peaking,
magnification, false color display, black & white image). The audio output signal will be 2-channel linear PCM
audio (16-bit, 48 kHz sampling). You can select which audio channels to output (
