FIELDVISION
OCM-10-PSM
10.1″PRO LCD MONITOR

Thank you for choosing Elvid.
The Elvid OCM-10-PSM FieldVision 10.1″Pro LCD Monitor with Scopes is perfect as a
director’s monitor. Its signature all-scopes setting displays a histogram, audio column,
vector, RGB histogram, and YUV waveform on the sides with an uninterrupted view of your
incoming video frame, enabling instant and constant feedback without disrupting your view
of the image. Anamorphic mode can be set to 1.3× or 2.0× to offer an accurate view of your
picture’s aspect ratio when shooting with an anamorphic lens.
The unique nine-grid mode divides the frame into a 3 × 3 grid as a composition aid and
allows you to magnify a specic area without adjusting your frame. A zebra exposure
indicator and false color mode with onscreen key display provide visual guides so you can
achieve precise exposure levels. A focus assist tool with two sensitivity levels helps ne-tune
your focus. There are also broadcast-specic features like overscan, safety frame markers,
and a tally light.
The FieldVision is equipped with Video, YPbPr, HDMI, and two SDI inputs—all with loop-
through—making this monitor compatible with most pro-video connections. Native resolution
is 1280 × 800, and you can easily change the native 16:10 aspect ratio to t your needs.
Onboard controls include ve function buttons that can be programmed from a palette of
22 functions and saved in three independent groups. Four knobs facilitate menu navigation,
access focus and Camera (DSLR) modes, and adjust monitor settings. There’s also an
integrated mono speaker and a 3.5 mm stereo headphone output for live audio monitoring.

POWERING THE
FIELDVISION
There are three ways to power the
FieldVision: 4-pin XLR input, 12 V DC
input, and a Sony L-Series camera
battery.

integrated speaker or the 3.5 mm
stereo headphone jack. To monitor via
the headphone jack, plug in a pair of
compatible headphones.
MOUNTING THE FIELDVISION
Use one of the 1/4″-20 threaded sockets
in the FieldVision to attach the monitor
to your mounting system. Make sure
your bracket can support the monitor.
Alternatively, you can mount the
included tabletop bracket by attaching it
with the included bracket thumbscrews.
CONNECTING TO YOUR CAMERA

THE
SUNSHADE
10
THE SUNSHADE
The sunshade prevents glare on the
monitor’s screen by blocking out stray
light and is useful when shooting
outdoors. To attach the included
sunshade, follow these steps:
1. Unfold the sunshade and place it along
the top and sides of the monitor.
Tip: For a more secure t, attach the
included adhesive touch strip along the
top edge of the monitor. This will help
hold the sunshade in position.
2. Align the sunshade’s screw holes with
the 1/4″-20 threaded sockets in the sides
of the monitor.
3. Use the included thumbscrews to
fasten the sunshade in place.

THE MENU
11
Before using the FieldVision, you will
need to make sure the monitor’s settings
are properly congured. All of the
setting congurations are located in the
main menu, which has seven submenus:
Assistant Functions, Marker Display,
Scopes, Picture Setting, Color Setting,
Shortcuts, and OSD Setting.
NAVIGATING THE MENU
To access the menu, press the Menu
knob. The submenus are located in the
left column of the main menu window.
Turn the Menu knob to navigate the
menu. To make a selection, press the
Menu knob. Press the Esc knob at any
point to return to the previous menu or
screen without making a selection.
ASSISTANT FUNCTIONS MENU
Check Field: In Check Field mode, only
the selected color will appear onscreen.
You can select gray, red, green, or
blue. Check Field mode is useful for
calibrating the monitor.
Pseudo Color: Replaces the true colors of
the image with a standard set of colors,
displayed in an onscreen chart, that
represent exposure levels. The higher—or
hotter—the exposure, the higher the
color will be in the chart. As exposure
decreases, the color will descend
through the chart. This mode is useful
for quickly and accurately determining
your shot exposure.
Zebra Crossing: Displays animated black
and white stripes through areas of the
image that are overexposed. You can set
this mode to high (70%) or low (100%)
sensitivity.
Focus Assist: Also known as peaking,
this focus-assist tool displays an outline
around in-focus areas of the image.
You can set this tool for high or low
sensitivity to edge detection. You can
also access this mode while on the main
screen by pressing the Focus knob.
Focus Color: Sets the color of the outline
for Focus Assist mode. You can choose
red (default), green, blue, or white.
Pattern Gen: Displays color bars on the
screen.
Marker Display Menu
Center Marker: Displays a marker in the
center of the screen.

12
THE MENU
Marker Type: Displays an onscreen box as a safety frame marker at a specic aspect
ratio. You can set this to 16:9, 4:3, 2.35:1, or 1.85:1.
Safety Area: Displays an onscreen box as a safety frame marker at a percentage of the
screen size. You can set this to 80%, 85%, 90%, 93%, or 96%. Note that this percentage
corresponds to the screen size and not the aspect ratio.
Marker Color: Changes the color of the onscreen markers. You can choose white
(default), gray, black, red, green, or blue.
Nine Grid: Divides the screen into a 3 × 3 grid of nine panels, any of which you can
select to display at full screen. This is useful for zooming in on a specic part of the
image to check or ne-tune the focus without adjusting or changing the frame. Use
the Menu knob to navigate the grid and select a panel. When the selected panel is at
full screen, press either the Menu or Esc knobs to return to the grid. Press the Focus
or Camera knobs to maintain this panel as your current display. To return to the grid,
enable Nine Grid mode via the Marker Display menu.

13
SCOPES
MENU
Y Histogram: Indicates the overall
level of exposure from light to dark
and shows the percentage of the
image at a particular exposure level.
Waveform: Displays a waveform of
the image’s exposure level in RGB
parade, YUV, or Y.
All Scopes: Display all the scopes in
the Scopes menu (Histogram, Audio
Column, Vector, RGB Histogram, and
YUV Waveform) on the sides of the
frame with an uninterrupted view
of your incoming video image. The
default setting is Off. You can also
add the scopes individually to display
them over your image.
RGB Histogram: Displays the overall
exposure level (Y Histogram) as well
as red, green, and blue levels on a
single scope.
Audio Column: Displays
the audio level meter
onscreen.
Vector: Displays a vectorscope, which
is an overall color saturation meter
for all colors in the image.

14
PICTURE
SETTING MENU
Scan Mode: Adjusts the aspect ratio for the FieldVision’s screen. You can choose Auto
(default), Over Scan, or Full Screen. Auto displays the image at the video signal’s
native aspect ratio so you can see the entire video image (e.g., if the signal’s native
aspect ratio is 4:3, it will display at 4:3). Over Scan displays only the broadcast-safe
image. Full Screen changes the image’s aspect ratio to 16:10, regardless of the video
signal’s native aspect ratio.
Camera Mode: Camera mode scales the image to ll the screen and adjusts the
monitor resolution so the video isn’t interrupted. This is useful when shooting on a
DSLR. You can also access this mode while on the main screen by pressing the
Camera knob.
Flip: Flips the display horizontally, vertically, or both.
Freeze: Freezes the current onscreen image.
Pixel to Pixel: Turns off scaling and displays the incoming video signal in its native
resolution and aspect ratio with 1:1 pixel mapping. If the picture is larger than the
monitor’s 1280 × 800 resolution, the center of the image will appear onscreen.
Zoom: Magnies the center of the onscreen image. You can choose ×4, ×9, and ×16.
Anamorphic: Set this to match the size of your anamorphic lens. You can choose 1.3×,
2.0×, and 2.0× mag. The 2.0× mag setting magnies the center of the image to ll the
screen. It's useful to check the focus when the scaled image appears too small onscreen.
Note: Anamorphic mode will not work in All Scopes mode.

COLOR
SETTING MENU
SHORTCUTS

are displayed onscreen in the submenu but cannot be accessed. These are accessible
only when setting the custom color temperature via the Color Temp submenu.
To save time when using the FieldVision, you can assign unique settings to the ve
function buttons to suit your specic needs.
The options for customizing the function buttons are Pseudo Color, Y Histogram,
