  Settings check

ISO, White Balance and Browse settings should be checked before each session. They are therefore placed at the top level of the menu for quick and easy access. They are also shown on-screen in most preview modes, so you can easily keep an eye on them as your work.

ISO

The ISO setting can be made using the ISO/WB button on the grip or on the sensor unit. The 'natural' sensitivity of the CCD is ISO 100, so you will get best results with this setting if the light conditions allow.

To set the ISO on the grip:

The ISO/WB button provides immediate access to ISO settings. The front control wheel is used to make the desired changes. The settings are automatically and simultaneously transferred from the camera to the sensor unit. Please note that the changes are only displayed on the sensor unit when the settings have been saved.

1)Press the ISO/WB button on the grip.

2)To make an ISO setting, turn the front control wheel to select the desired rating.

3)Press SAVE (ISO/WB button) to save the setting.

To set the ISO on the sensor unit

1.Choose MENU > ISO. This is the top item of the top menu, so it will be selected by default when you enter the menu system.

2.Use the zoom ( – or + ) buttons to step through the avail- able ISO settings until the setting you want is shown.

3.Press the menu button to exit the menu system and keep the setting.

White balance / Grey balance setting

There are several ways to make a white/grey balance setting adjustment. When untethered on location you might prefer to make a quick preset adjustment setting at the same time that you check the ISO and Media settings. Tethered in the studio you might prefer to take the first shot of a grey card/scale and make the adjustment in Phocus for that session. In addition, you might want to assign the User Button as a rapid white balance check in a mixed lighting situation.

A white balance setting can be made either on the grip or on the sensor unit. Changes made on one are recorded and displayed on the other.
