The Aspect Guides and Screen Markers Features will assist you in correctly framing your shot.
Activating an Aspect Guide or Screen marker will display a rectangle box representing a specific
aspect ratio. For example if you are filming in 4:3 and you will be editing the video in post
production to 16:9 the aspect guides will show you if you will be cutting off the top of someone’s
head in the video. Within the aspect guides you have several options for line style and % safe.
Choosing a line style will allow you to select between a rectangle line black or partially grey bars in
the inactive area. % Safe will allow you to make the aspect area smaller in 5% increments which will
give you a safe area for the shot.
To activate a preset scroll to the Guides tab and select which screen marker you want to use. To
deactivate it follow the reverse procedure. If you have a HD089BV2 or HD089CV2 you can assign a
hotkey to this feature under the setup tab.
