(720p 59.94)).

HDMI

The camera includes a standard HDMI connector on its right side panel. This output provides a HDTV

compatible 1280 x 720 video signal or P.C monitor compatible 1280 x 848 pixel signal.

NOTE: If the PLAYBACK resolution is set to 1080p in the PLAYBACK menu, the HDMI output is

1280 x 720 pixels when in preview and record, but switches to 1920 x 1080 pixels in playback.

If after connecting the camera to an external monitor and the camera display is not shown completely on

the monitor display try the following:

• Select PREVIEW and change setting between from VIDEO [720p] to MENUS [DVI].

• Select PVW REFRESH and change setting between 50.00 HZ or 59.94 HZ.

EVF REFRESH

EVF Refresh: permits the operator to select the display refresh rate used by the RED EVF.

FIXED: The default mode is FIXED, which uses 2:3 or other appropriate pull down as required to display

images at a fixed frequency of 59.94 Hz (or 50Hz) at all image capture frame rates. This mode minimizes

display flicker, but will exhibit a 2:3 motion stutter on 24fps images.

SYNCED: The alternative mode is SYNCED. This avoids 2:3 pull down, and instead doubles the capture

frame rate – for example displaying 24fps images at 48Hz (50Hz for 25.00 fps). The display may exhibit

luminance flicker due to the lower frame update rate, but it will not stutter.

NOTE: When in SYNCED mode, EVF display may blank for up to 3 seconds:

• When existing OPEN GATE mode

• After exiting MAGNIFY mode when in 4K record resolution

• After changing between certain Varispeed frame rates
