104 Camera Controls
Color Select to set the color of the frame lines. In the frame lines defin-
ition file, lines can either be given a fixed color, or they can have
the color specified as "User". If "User" is chosen for a line, the
setting chosen in this menu section is applied to the line.
Intensity Select to set the intensity of the frame lines. The higher the num-
ber, the brighter the frame lines appear.
User rectangles screen
User rectan-
gles
Select to set user rectangles to Off, Rect 1, Rect 2 or Rect 1&2.
The ALEXA can display up to two additional rectangles that can
be adjusted manually.
Set rect 1 Select to set the shape of rectangle 1. Activate it through User
rectangles.
Set rect 2 Select to set the shape of rectangle 2. Activate it through User
rectangles.
The currently active border is highlighted in red on all outputs that have frame lines
enabled while editing user rectangles. Note that it may take some moments for the
highlighting to update when switching between borders.
NOTICE
Default frame lines have "User" specified as color for all content.
Frame Lines Saved in Metadata
The ALEXA records up to six rectangular frame lines from the active frame line files
into metadata. This metadata is present in all recording formats and on all HD-SDI
outputs. The frame line metadata can be used either for automatic dailies creation or
for displaying the frame lines in post.
Automated Dailies Creation
It is possible to load two frame line files simultaneously into the camera for a total of
six frame lines displayed in the viewfinder or on MON OUT. In metadata, the frame
lines of the first file will be called frame line 1A, frame line 1B and frame line 1C,
while the frame lines of the second file will be called frame line 2A, frame line 2B and
frame line 2C. Frame line 1A is automatically the master frame line. The master frame
line can be used by dailies creation software to automatically frame the dailies. This
feature is expected first on the Codex Vault, but other dailies creation software is
expected to follow suite.
Frame Lines in Post
The frame line metadata makes the original camera frame lines available during post
production for editing, color grading or compositing tools and can be displayed as an
overlay in the respective image viewer.
False Color Index
Select False color index to display a reference chart showing the relationship between
the color overlays, signal level in percent and descriptions. False color is available on
the EVF-1 and over the MON OUT outputs.
