Grid
The grid option lets you select overlays to assist with shot framing.
Thirds Thirds will overlay two horizontal and two vertical lines over your image,
breaking it up into 9 smaller sections to help you compose your shot.
Thehuman eye typically looks for action near the points where the lines
intersect, so it’s helpful to frame key points of interest in these zones.
An actor’s eyeline is commonly framed along the top third of the screen,
soyou can use the top third to guide your framing.
Crosshairs The ‘crosshairs’ setting places a crosshair in the center of the frame.
Like thirds, the crosshairs is a very useful compositional tool, making it easy to
frame the subject of a shot in the very center of a frame. This is sometimes
used when filming scenes that will be assembled using very fast cuts.
Keeping viewers’ eyes focused on the center of a frame can make rapid editing
easier to follow.
Center Dot The ‘center dot’ setting places a dot in the center of the frame. This works in
exactly the same way as the ‘crosshair’ setting, albeit with a smaller overlay
that you may find less intrusive.
You can enable a combination of ‘thirds’ and ‘crosshairs’ or ‘thirds’ and ‘center
dot’ by tapping both options in the ‘grids’ menu. ‘Crosshairs’ and ‘center dot’
cannot be selected together.
False Color
The ‘false color’ setting toggles the appearance of false color exposure assistance on
the LCD touchscreen and the SDI monitor out. When false color is on, different colors
are superimposed over your image to represent different exposure levels. For example,
optimal exposure for skin tones can be achieved by using green for dark shades and
pink for light shades. Monitoring the colors during recording can help you maintain
consistent exposure for skin tones. Similarly, when elements in your image change from
yellow to red, that means they are now over exposed.
