Display Status Text For Cinematographer or Director
Your URSA Mini's LCD touchscreen displays information such as ISO, white balance, and
aperture that is useful to a camera operator or cinematographer setting up individual shots on
that camera. URSA Mini's front and main SDI outputs, however, can also show information useful
to a director or script supervisor who is keeping track of multiple shots or cameras.
Your URSA Mini can display director specific status text on its front and main SDI outputs
Setting the status text to 'director' in your URSA Mini's 'front SDI' or 'main SDI' monitor settings
changes the status text for that output to show the following information.
