Frame Lines
Frame lines are an image overlay that can be applied to either the EVF
image, the MON OUT image, or both.
ALEXA frame lines are stored as XML files that define the frame lines’
aspect ratio, marker style, line width, center marker and more. The
color of the frame lines is set on the camera.
The following default frame lines are loaded onto the ALEXA:
1.33:1
1.66:1
1.78:1
1.85:1
2.39:1
2.39:1 2.0x anamorphic
Additional frame lines can be loaded from the SD card. To create
additional frame lines, use ALEXA Frameline Composer, a free web tool
at http://www.arri.com/camera/digital_cameras. Save the new frame
lines as XML files to an SD card formatted on the ALEXA, in the Frame
lines folder. The ALEXA supports up to 16 frame line templates.
