CAPTURE A CINE USING THE OCC
Ensure camera is in 'Capture' mode, then Tap the 'Trigger' button to trigger the camera.
With the Cine in RAM, tap the 'Playback' button. The video output will switch to playback
view, where you must select the Cine for playback. In the case of Multi-Cine (partitioned)
RAM, there will be more than one RAM Cine present.
Once the take is selected, there are options to 'Play,' 'Delete,' 'Delete All' or 'Go Back.'
Selecting 'Play' will close the menu and the video will begin to play forward.
Use the 'Play Forward', 'Play
Backwards' buttons and the menu
knob to scroll through the Cine.
A long press on the forward
or reverse buttons will start a
fast-forward and fast-reverse
playback.
EDIT THE CINE
Tap the menu knob to further edit
and save the Cine to an installed
CineMag V. An action menu appears with more options.
Use the play arrows or scroll knob to scroll through the Cine.
Set the in-point by selecting 'Set In.' This will be the first frame of
the Cine saved to the CineMag. Scroll to the last frame you want to
save and select 'Set Out.'
SAVE THE CINE
Select 'Save' to save the Cine to the Phantom CineMag. The OSD will
report that the CineMag is saving and provide a countdown. Do not
interrupt this saving process.
Once the save is complete, the RAM can be cleared and the camera can go back into
'Capture' mode. The fastest way to do this is to hold down the 'Trigger' button for four
seconds.
