Monitor Adjustment 

The EM253 has three adjustments for brightness, color and contrast.  These 

adjustments can be found on the inside rear half of the housing (see photo). 
 
While the monitor is pre-adjusted at the factory, Gates recommends the monitor be 

further adjusted to match the camera being used.  This will ensure a consistent match 
between the monitor and the image actually being recorded.   
 

Matching the camera and monitor should be done in a darkened area to allow good 
viewing of both the monitor and the camera electronic viewfinder (EVF). 
 

With the camera on and the monitor plugged in, compare the image on the EVF to the 
monitor.  Separate the monitor halves, make a small adjustment to the brightness, 
contrast or color control, then mate the halves again and view the results.  (It is not 

necessary to secure the latches.  Simply mating the halves should produce an image).  
Fine tune your adjustments until you are satisfied that the image on the monitor 

accurately reflects that being seen in the EVF.
