The HDVF-700A HD Electronic Viewfinder is a 7type monochrome viewfinder for use with a Sony
high-definition color camera.
This viewfinder has the following features:
Multiscan
In addition to the 60i format, formats such as 24PsF
and 50i are supported for control signals from the
camera.
16:9 display capability
When operated from an external device such as a
camera control unit, the screen can be switched
between 16:9 and 4:3 display modes.
High resolution
The viewfinder uses a high-resolution cathode-ray
tube, providing 800 or more lines of horizontal
resolution.
Tally lamps
The viewfinder has red and green tally lamps which
light in response to tally signals.
Superior usability
The viewfinder height may be set to one of three
positions, and it may be tilted up to 60º upwards or 50º
downwards.
Drip-proof construction
The drip-proof design is able to withstand light rain,
making the viewfinder well suited to outdoor use.
Studio monitor hood, outdoor hood
The viewfinder may be fitted with a strong, easy-touse studio hood (supplied), or an outdoor broadcasting
(OB) hood with excellent shading ability (option).
Stable picture
A high-voltage regulation circuit provides a stable
image with a minimum of distortion, regardless of
screen brightness.
Continuously variable peaking
A continuously variable peaking circuit provides a
sharp image, making it easy to focus the camera.
Energy-saving design
The viewfinder will accept a wide range of power
supply voltage (from 10.5 to 17 volts) with low power
consumption (33 watts).
