Note: Due to the risk of displacement caused by shock force, we recommend to
remove both ground glass and field lens before transportation and shipping of
the camera. Whenever removing the camera from its case, check that both
ground glass and field lens are properly seated before switching on the camera
to prevent any damage to the mirror shutter.
FRAMEGLOW
The FRAMEGLOW module is integrated in the optical viewfinder
system of the ALEXA Studio. It allows illuminated format markings to
be superimposed onto the viewfinder image with adjustable brightness.
Press the buttons on the left side of the OVF below the DIMMER
engravement to adjust the brightness of the FRAMEGLOW. At its
lowest brightness setting, the FRAMEGLOW is switched off.
The FRAMEGLOW color is set in the camera menu under
MENU>Monitoring>Frame lines> Frame lines color

Changing the FRAMEGLOW mask
The ground glass used for the optical viewfinder should be combined
with a matching frameglow mask. To change the frameglow mask:
Loosen the 3mm allen screw next to the level bubble.
Remove the level bubble element.
Grab the glow mask with a Hirschmann clamp at the forceps
hole and pull it out of the glow mask frame.
Check that both the new glow mask and the glow mask frame
are clean.
Carefully push the new glow mask into the glow mask frame.
Make sure the glow mask is inserted completely.
