Handheld Type

Wide Viewing Angle

The LCD panels used in the handheld type LUMA monitors have a wide viewing angle of 170 degrees, both horizontally and vertically, with minimal reduction in picture contrast.

AR (anti-reflection) Coated Protection Panel

The handheld type LUMA monitors use robust AR-coated protection layers, which minimize the chance of their panels being scratched during transportation – an extremely important criteria for use in the field or in any mobile application. The AR coating additionally has two unique characteristics: it provides a high transmission rate of the internal light source to keep the picture as bright as possible, and it keeps reflection from ambient light to a minimum. As a result, when used in bright lighting conditions, high contrast is still maintained even in dark areas of the picture.

Operational Convenience

ENG Kit VF-509

The handheld type LUMA monitors are a strategic choice for use in ENG and EFP field operations. When compared to CRT displays, the picture contrast of these monitors is affected less by ambient light, allowing clear images to be viewed even under strong sunlight. For further protection, the optional VF-509 ENG kit provides a Viewing Hood, Carrying Handle, and Connector Protector.

Advanced Marker Settings

The handheld type LUMA monitors can display various area markers, including a center marker and aspect markers. The brightness of these markers can be selected from three different levels, white, gray, and dark gray, and their widths can be selected from FINE, STANDARD, and BOLD. Users can also select either a black or gray matte to fill the outer area of the aspect markers. These flexible marker controls, together with the choice of many different aspect markers, make the handheld type LUMA monitors extremely convenient for a variety of shooting scenarios.

The status of the signal displayed on the monitor can be identified by the tally color – red, green, or amber.

Parallel Remote Control

The handheld type LUMA monitors can be controlled remotely via their parallel remote connectors. There are 27 functions in the remote menu (such as the ability to switch input signals), of which seven can be allocated to the connector.

Monaural Audio Monitoring

All handheld type LUMA monitors are equipped with a speaker (0.5 W), which enables the user to monitor audio.

Protected Controls

The key-inhibit function helps prevent inadvertent operations from the control panel.

Convenient Installation

Mounting Flexibility

The handheld type LUMA monitors are 5U high and half-rack wide. Using the optional MB-525 Mounting Bracket with a nine- step tilt capability, two units can be installed side-by-side in a 19- inch EIA standard rack.
