VF ASPECT: Turn the rotary encoder clockwise to change the
aspect ratio of the viewfinder screen to that selected by 16:9/4:3
MODE (AUTO), or counterclockwise to fix the aspect ratio of
the viewfinder screen at 4:3 (4:3) regardless of the 16:9/4:3
MODE setting.
To fix the aspect ratio at 16:9 (16:9A or 16:9B), turn the rotary
encoder further counterclockwise.
When the 16:9/4:3 MODE is set to 4:3 with the VF ASPECT set
to 16:9A or 16:9B, then the viewfinder shows the whole of the
original 16:9 mode picture in the 16:9 mode frame.
When the VF ASPECT is set to 16:9A, a marker indicating the
4:3 mode picture output area appears in the 16:9 mode frame.
When the VF ASPECT is set to 16:9B, the VF signal level
outside the current safety zone area (100%, 90% or 80%) drops
to a half regardless of whether the SAFETY ZONE setting is
ON or OFF.
If you are using the BVF-VC10W Color Viewfinder with the
picture output to the viewfinder in 4:3 mode, setting the VF
ASPECT to 16:9A or 16:9B disables the viewfinder from
showing the picture correctly.
BOX/4:3 /14:9 LMT: Turn the rotary encoder clockwise to display
the box cursor on the viewfinder screen (BOX). Turn the rotary
encoder counterclockwise to display a 4:3 mode area on the
16:9 mode viewfinder screen (4:3). Turn the rotary encoder,
and further counterclockwise to display a 14:9 mode area.
“16:9” BARS ID: Turn the rotary encoder counterclockwise to
record a 16:9 mode indicator in color bars (ON), or clockwise
not to record it in color bars (OFF).
