18.4 Frame Lines

To aid in framing, both the MVF-2 and the SDI outs can display frame lines overlaid on the image.

Frame lines can be considered electronic versions of ground glass markings in film cameras.
You can configure which frame line the camera should show and how it should be displayed (color and

transparency). You can also configure up to two user rectangles which allow you to mark a rectangular

area on the image, e.g. for marking an area that you need to keep clear during shooting for later VFX

insertion.
Custom frame lines can be created using the

Frame Line & Lens Illumination Tool
