Camera position control modes
550c offers two camera positioning control modes:
Direct
, and
Go To
.
Pressing the camera mode control button cycles between these two modes.
In Direct mode
, the camera responds immediately to the joystick movement. Pressing the joystick
button down returns the camera to its front, central position.
In Go To mode
, the joystick controls the position of a target
in the Mimic see Fig. 6-17 MIMIC with
Fig. 6-17. Remembering that the Mimic provides a 2D image
of the 3D camera position, place the target where you want the camera to point and press the joystick
button down; the camera will then move to this point.
If MIMIC has been disabled in the
Settings
menu, selecting
Go To
mode will automatically enable it so
you can see the target and position it as you want.
Note
:
Camera positioning is not available for fixed, forward view cameras, or pushrod cameras.
