Designed for freedom, LCD / Fully Adjustable Viewfinder

Designed for freedom.

The popularity of the XL2’s predecessor, the XL1s, was in large part due to its ‘open architecture’ skeletal design. The XL2 started with the same design philosophy and added improvements to create a completely modular video camera package to suit your needs. For maximum strength and portability,

it is constructed from a high-tolerance impact-resistant magnesium alloy frame with a built-in shoulder support and distinctive pearl white finish.

LCD / FULLY ADJUSTABLE

VIEWFINDER

The XL2’s viewfinder (EVF) is fully adjustable (left, right, forwards and backwards) with a 200,000 pixel, 2" LCD that displays 86% of the shooting scene. This high-resolution screen can be adapted to view Pro-Quality 16:9 (shown in letterbox format on the EVF). The EVF also features three indicator lights – Rec, Shutter and Gain – to deliver instant feedback on every shot. The LCD meanwhile, is also fully adjustable for brightness, colour darkness, sharpness and contrast.

LCD SIDE DIAL DISPLAY

Another feature carried over from the XL1s is the distinctive LCD side dial. With its audio level meter integrated into the inner dial display, it is perfectly situated for the easy monitoring of audio levels during filming.

LATERAL / HORIZONTAL

VIEWFINDER MOVEMENT

The XL2 is comfortable for anybody to use. It is easily modified for different usage setups and maintains the same popular built-in shoulder support, underneath the tilted rear body, as its predecessor.

PROFESSIONAL CONNECTIVITY

The XL2 has two built-in XLR ports that enable high-performance microphones to be connected directly to the video camera (as well as offering phantom power capability). It also comes with a BNC jack and an S-Video jack as standard. The BNC jack allows for a co-axial cable connection direct to a monitor, so you can check the complete image set-up and composition, while the S-Video jack is for output to conventional TV sets.

Video can be monitored directly on the 2" LCD by flipping back the fully adjustable viewfinder (EVF).
