The aspect ratio, frame guide opacity level, safe area percentage, and the type of grids
shown will match what you have set in the camera. The ‘setup’ menu in the Studio
Viewfinder then allows you to configure which type of guides you would like to see in
the Studio Viewfinder when guides in the display menu are switched on. Guides then
allows you to then switch these ‘on’ or ‘off’ with one command.

zoominginto your picture. When zoomed in, you can navigate to specific parts of the
screen by rotating the menu dial left and right. The overlay will indicate which part of
the picture you arezoomed into.
Film to Video
When sending a ‘film’ dynamic range SDI signal from your URSA Broadcast G2, the ‘film
to video’ setting allows you to apply a more colorful and contrasty LUT to the image.
This setting will only be available when ‘film’ dynamic range is detected and will
otherwise be grayed out to prevent the wrong LUT being applied to the image.
Audio Meters
The audio meters display the audio level that is being input via SDI into the Blackmagic
URSAStudio Viewfinder, therefore the meters will show you URSA Broadcast G2’s
audio input levels. If you have program input selected, the audio meter will display
these audio levels.
Exposure Meters
Switches the display of the histogram ‘on’ or ‘off’.
Red Channel
Allows you to switch on or off the red channel of your image.
Green Channel
Allows you to switch on or off the green channel of your image.
Blue Channel
Allows you to switch on or off the blue channel of your image.
Black and White
Switches between color and monochrome.
Shortcuts
The shortcut function allows you to map specific functions to the F1, F2 and F3 buttons. These
shortcut buttons allow you to quickly toggle ‘on’ and ‘off’ any of the settings in the display
menu, or your cursors. This is extremely useful when you need to quickly access a particular
setting for a frequently used feature.
To customize your shortcut buttons: In the ‘shortcuts’ menu, rotate the push button ‘menu’
dial to move up or down and select one of the 3 buttons. Press the ‘menu’ dial to confirm your
selection and then rotate the ‘menu’ dial to scroll through the assignable features. You will
have the option to select one of the following features: ‘zoom’, ‘cursor 1’, ‘cursor 2’, ‘cursor 3’,
‘zebra’, ‘false color’, ‘guides’, ‘film to video’, ‘audio meters’, ‘exposure meters’, ‘red channel’,
‘greenchannel’, ‘blue channel’, ‘black and white’. Once chosen click the menu button to confirm
that selection, and assign that function to the chosen shortcut button. Pressing the shortcut
button will now switch this feature ‘on’ and ‘off’.
Once you have set up your shortcuts as required you can either scroll to ‘exit’ and press the
‘menu’ dial to close the menu display view, or hit the back button to exit out of the menu.
