DSLR Scale Presets
The DSLR Scale presets are factory defined presets that enable
the input signal from a variety of DSLR cameras to fill the screen
of the AC7. Most monitors are unable to achieve this function.
Special logic is in play when these presets are activated that keeps
the image in full-screen mode even though the video signal may
be changing aspect ratios behind the scenes (as in the case of the
Canon 5D Mark 2, 60D, T2i, and T3i). As a result, the "Scale" and
"CustomScale" menu functions are locked while using these
presets.
Use preset "Canon DSLR" for Canon DSLR (480p output)
cameras during LiveView/Record mode. Use preset
"Nikon DSLR" for Nikon DSLR (720p output) cameras
during LiveView/Record mode.
Use preset "C PLAYBACK" when reviewing footage already
recorded onto the Canon DSLR.
*Many of the menu functions are described in video format on
the video section of the SmallHD website
www.smallhd.com/videos/ View videos such as “Nikon Preset”
and “Preset Menu Demo” are great resources for learning how
to navigate your presets.
This Preset Menu shows the
Nikon DSLR Record preset is
selected.
