4.2.1 Changing the Beam Splitter
Note: This is not necessary if a 80 : 20 beam splitter
is already installed.
Because of the high speed video optic (Academy
or Silent), it is no longer necessary to use a 50:50
beam splitter, as it was with other color video assists.
The IVS is designed to work with an 80:20
beam splitter.
• Press the release key § and take the viewfinder
system off the camera.
• Open the 7 mounting screws §.
• Open the 3 mounting screws §.
The viewfinder top is connected with two cables
to the rest of the units.
Do not use force in separating the units.
• Lift the top side of the viewfinder carefully off to get
access to the beam splitter and mounting ring assembly.
