Monitor Settings 2
The second page of your URSA Broadcast G2’s ‘LCD’ monitor tab contains some settings that
vary depending on the selected output.
LCD, Front SDI and Main SDI
Status Text
It can be useful to hide the status text and meters on your LCD, front SDI or main SDI
output, leaving only the information necessary to compose or direct a shot. Tap the
‘status text’ switch icon in the LCD, ‘front SDI’ or ‘main SDI’ monitor menus to toggle
the appearance of status text and meters for that output. Overlays such as frame
guides, grids, focus assist and zebra will remain visible, if enabled.
Swiping up or down on your URSA Broadcast G2’s LCD touchscreen has the same
effect for the touchscreen.
Anamorphic Desqueeze
When shooting with anamorphic lenses, the image will appear horizontally ‘squeezed’
on your URSA Broadcast G2’s preview outputs and in recorded files. Enabling
anamorphic desqueeze’ will correct the preview image on your URSA Broadcast G2
as well as recording the desqueeze amount used in the clip metadata for easy
correction in post.
The desqueeze amount you choose will vary depending on what you’ve set your
URSA Broadcast G2 resolution to, but the resulting image will always be in the
cinematic widescreen 2.4:1 aspect ratio.
Anamorphic lenses designed for film typically have a 2x squeeze factor. Your URSA
Broadcast G2s ‘3.7K anamorphic’ resolution is designed for use with these lenses and
will perform a 2x desqueeze when set to this resolution with ‘anamorphic desqueeze’
set to ‘2x’.
Anamorphic lenses designed for 16:9 digital image sensors often use a 1.33x squeeze
factor to produce 2.4:1 cinematic widescreen images from the entire 16:9 sensor.
Therefore, when your URSA Broadcast G2 is set to 16:9 resolutions such as ’4K 16:9’
and ‘HD 16:9,’ ‘anamorphic desqueeze’ should be set to ‘1.33x.
TIP If your image appears horizontally stretched when shooting with a standard
spherical lens, make sure you don’t have ‘anamorphic desqueeze’ enabled.
