Product Label
The product label (16) shows the MVF-2 serial number. The serial number consists of the last 5 digits of

Viewfinder Connector

MVF-2 viewfinder with the camera. The interface transmits power, video and control data and supports
cable lengths of up to 10 m (33 ft). The VF connector (17) comes without a key, so the VF cables plug
in regardless of their orientation and support hot plugging of the viewfinder.

channels with a maximum power of 2.5 dBm.

The 4“ flip-out monitor with up-and-down tilt function can display the camera live image or the main
