11Vertical Shift switch (V-Shift)

Sometimes when shooting TV screens or monitors with the same display frequency as the camera, a horizontal black bar is seen in the viewfinder because the camera is blanking while the TV is not.

Holding the switch in the + or - position moves the bar up or down so that it is no longer visible in the viewfinder. This function is only available when the camera is used in the stand-allone mode and is not active when the camera is genlocked or on-air.

In the triax mode this button switches the intercom microphone of the headset to the production intercom channel. This button operates in parallel with the VTR button on the lens.
