LCD / FULLY ADJUSTABLE
VIEWFINDER
The viewfinder (EVF) on the XL2 is fully
adjustable (left, right, fore and aft) with
a 200,000 pixel, 2" LCD that displays 86%
of the shooting scene. This high-resolution
screen can be adapted to view Pro-Quality
16:9 (shown in letter box format on the EVF).
The EVF also features three indicator lights –
Rec, Shutter and Gain – to deliver instant
feedback on every shot. The LCD meanwhile,
is also fully adjustable for brightness, colour
darkness, sharpness and contrast.
LCD SIDE DIAL DISPLAY
Another feature inherited from the XL1s
is the distinctive LCD side dial, which is
perfectly situated for the easy monitoring
of audio levels during filming. The audio
level meter is integrated into the inner
dial display.
LATERAL / HORIZONTAL
VIEWFINDER MOVEMENT
The XL2 is comfortable for anybody to use.
It is easily modified for different usage
setups and maintains the same
popular built-in shoulder support
underneath the tilted rear body as
its predecessor.
Designed for freedom.
The popularity of the XL2’s predecessor, the XL1s, was in large part due to
its ‘open architecture’ skeletal design. The XL2 started with the same design
philosophy and added improvements to create a completely modular
camcorder package to suit your needs. It is constructed from a high-tolerance
impact resistant magnesium alloy frame for strength and portability, with
a built-in shoulder support and distinctive pearl white finish.
PROFESSIONAL CONNECTIVITY
Not only does the XL2 have two built-in
XLR ports that enable high-performance
microphones to be connected directly to
the camcorder (as well as offering phantom
power capability) – it now also comes with
a BNC jack and an S-Video jack as standard.
The BNC jack allows for a co-axial cable
connection direct to a monitor to check
the complete image set-up and composition,
while the S-Video jack is for output to
conventional TV sets.
Video can be monitored
directly on the 2" LCD by
flipping back the fully
adjustable viewfinder (EVF).
