It delivers outstanding high contrast and a wide dynamic range thanks to the use of revolutionary Organic Light Emitting Diode (OLED) display technology.

With its specially developed optical loupe, a high eye-point is possible .It allows operators to see a wider area of the picture if they stand back from the eye piece. The image displayed on the viewfinder can be downscaled by menu or assignable button to avoid vignetting.

The HDVF-EL30 is equipped with an additional 3.5-inch, quarter HD (960 x 540) sub-LCD display for direct monitoring over a longer distance. Using both sub-LCD panel and OLED displays, offers full operational flexibility enabling a camera assistant to monitor the sub-LCD display while the camera operator uses the OLED one. A tally indicator and the camera number can be displayed on the sub-LCD panel. The supplied foldable hood avoids sunlight reflection.
