Shooting Assist Functions
• Focus Assist:
Expands the center section of the viewfinder screen for
easier focusing.
• Shockless White Balance:
A smooth transition occurs when switching
White Balance modes. This is effective, for example, when moving from
outdoors to indoors.
• User Buttons:
Functions can be freely allocated to the five User buttons.
• WFM:
Simplified waveform and vectorscope display.
Optional Color and Black-and-White Viewfinders
The optional AJ-CVF100G HD Color Viewfinder employs a 25.4 mm (1 inch)
1,500,000 dot-equivalent (960 x 540 x 3 [RGB]) transmission-type LCOS
(Liquid Crystal On Silicon) to achieve high resolution, high brightness and
high response. It helps to reduce the possibility of white balance
adjustment errors and other errors in recording.
The optional AJ-HVF21KG 50.8 mm (2 inches) Black-and-White HD
Viewfinder or AG-CVF15G/CVF10G HD Color Viewfinders can also be used.
Color LCD Monitor
The built-in 8.76 cm (3.45 inches) color LCD serves as a monitor when
shooting, displays menus, and provides waveform and vectorscope displays.
After recording, clips selected from clip and thumbnail displays can be
played or deleted (single or multiple clips). In addition to VTR-like pause,
fast-forward, and rewind functions, multiple clips can be consecutively
played in any desired sequence for transmitting data from the shooting
location.
* Clips with different recording formats cannot be consecutively played.

USB cable are required to connect the camera to the LU40 Series. For
mounting to the camera, a separately purchased mount adapter
