11. Video-Assist-System

The video-assist-system delivers a high-quality, nearly flickerfree monitor image for PAL or NTSC. The

video-assist-system consists of the video set, the 1/2" color video camera CCD 2-FR and the anti-flicker processor AFP-2. The video set consists of the video carrying handle and the video optic together. These transmit the image from the beamsplitter to the video camera. The video set is supplied already mounted.

With the corresponding video optic the video-assist- system can also be used on the ARRIFLEX 535B and the 35 III.

The brightness of the video image is automatically adapted to the lighting conditions. This balancing can also be carried out manually. The white balance is designed for standard values for interior and outside

filming. The technology for image-storing used in this system enables reproduction of a stored image or the alternation between the real and the stored image - e.g. to align the camera to an earlier scene or for stop trick filming.

When using several video cameras the video-assist- system can also be synchronized by an external video signal.

The change-over from the color to the black/white CCD- camera is simple and requires no subsequent adjust- ment. The following beamsplitters are available:

-20% BW-video 80% viewfinder

-50% color video 50% viewfinder
