147 Connecting to an External Monitor Using the MON. 1 and MON. 2 Terminals During 4K and 2K modes, the camera can output video from the MON. 1 and MON. 2 terminals (MON. terminals). The signal that is output from the MON. terminals also incl udes audio, time code, metadata and clip name information. In addition, the camera can a pply onscreen markers, zebra patterns, peaking and magnification* to the MON. 1 terminal output. Perform th e following procedures to enable output from the MON. terminals...

Connecting to an External Monitor 148 Options NOTES • For [Letterbox], because the camera uses a simple co nversion process vertically, diagonal lines may appear jagged. • For MON. terminal output during 4K mode, because the camera uses a simple conversion process, color shifting may be visible. • If you set an assignable button to [Resize MON. Output] ( A111), you can press the button to switch the resizing method. Applying a LUT to Canon Log Gamma When checking video recorded with Canon Log gamma...
