bTrigger mode

PARA: Operates both internal and external VTRs.

INT: Operates the internal VTR only.

EXT: Operates the external VTR only.

cExtender

“EX” is displayed when a lens extender is used.

dColor temperature

Indicates the currently selected color temperature.

eDC IN / battery voltage / remaining capacity Indicates the battery voltage or the remaining capacity of an attached internal battery pack, an AC adaptor, or an external battery (a battery connected to the DC IN connector).

When the power is supplied from an external battery, “DC IN” appears here.

When the DISP BATT REMAIN item is set to INT on the VF DISP 2 page of the OPERATION menu, the battery voltage is not indicated.

However, when the Anton Bauer intelligent battery system or the BP-GL65/GL95 battery pack is used, the remaining battery capacity is automatically detected and indicated in steps of 10%.

• Until the remaining battery capacity is reduced to 40%, the indications MAX, 90%, 80%...40% are displayed for three seconds in the viewfinder each time the remaining battery capacity reduces by 10%.

• When the remaining battery capacity is less than 40%,

the indication is displayed all the time.

• When the remaining battery capacity is less than 10%*, the indication flashes. When the remaining battery capacity is reduced further, the “LOW” flashes.

*This value can be set to either 10% or 20% on the FUNCTION 2 page of the OPERATION menu.

f* (Asterisk indicator)

Flashes when the color bars are displayed and is recorded together with the color bars.
