Remark
The MOVIECAM COMPACT REMOTE CONTROL
BOX works with both camera types, the COMPACT
and the COMPACT Mk2. But the Mk2 REMOTE
CONTROL BOX CABLE has to be used in order to
link the box to the Mk2 camera.
THE MOVIELITE MODULES
In order to make the frame lines of the Ground Glass
visible while shooting dark scenes, MOVIECAM pro-
vides small attachments for the Mk2 Viewfinder called
MOVIELITE. Two different MOVIELITE modules are pro-
vided; the differences between them are not only in the
design but also in the technology employed.
THE LCD MOVIELITE MODULE
By means of a sophisticated electronic design, the LCD
MOVIELITE module fades in one or – simultaneously –
two luminous frame outlines. Besides those two frames,
also a reticule can be faded in and out the viewfinder
image by pushing the Crosshair button. Four frame outli-
nes with the following aspect ratios are provided in the
LCD MOVIELITE:
1 : 1.33 (TV)
1 : 1.375 (Academy)
1 : 1.66 (European Wide Screen)
1 : 1.85 (US/UK Wide Screen)
