The Elvid FieldVision 4KV2 is a lightweight 7-inch on-camera monitor
that’s capable of displaying signals up to UHD 4K (3840 × 2160) and
DCI 4K (4069 × 2160). The LCD panel’s native resolution of 1920 × 1200
provides a sharp image and facilitates precise color rendering. It offers
an aspect ratio of 16:10 (native) that you can set to your preferred size
along with four zoom presets. In addition, pixel-to-pixel mode gives you
the actual quality of 4K resolution in order to see the ne details of your
image. The FieldVision 4KV2 also accepts composite video and two-
channel audio with an A/V breakout cable (not included).
The on-screen menu makes it easy to adjust your image, and it offers
adjustments for brightness, contrast, hue, sharpness, color temperature,
and saturation. There are also broadcast-specic features like safety
frame markers and multiple display formats.
The FieldVision 4KV2 is equipped with advanced tools like Check Field to
help calibrate the monitor, a Focus Assist setting to ne-tune your focus,
and Camera mode to scale the incoming video signal when shooting on a
DSLR. Onboard programmable function buttons provide quick shortcuts
to the tools you want at your ngertips. There’s also an integrated
speaker and a 3.5 mm stereo headphone output for live audio monitoring.
A removable sunshade is included to minimize glare when shooting
outdoors.

POWERING
OPTIONS
There are two ways to power the FieldVision 4KV2: AC power
or battery (not included).
CAMERA BATTERY
The FieldVision’s built-in battery mounting plate accommodates
a Sony L-Series–type battery.
1. Place a compatible battery in
the battery plate. Make sure
the battery’s bottom contacts
are aligned with the contacts
in the battery plate.
2. Slide the battery forward
until it locks into place. The
indicator LED will glow red
when the power source is
connected.
To install a compatible battery,
follow these steps:

10
To turn on the FieldVision 4KV2, press the power button on
the front panel of the monitor. The FieldVision 4KV2 will
turn on and enter standby mode (yellow indicator LED).
A battery monitor appears at the top of the screen and
displays the remaining battery charge.
Note: The power indicator glows red in standby mode while
connected to a power source.
AC POWER
To run the FieldVision 4KV2 with AC power, use a 12 V DC
adapter (not included) to connect the FieldVision 4KV2’s
DC power input to your AC power source.
To turn on the FieldVision 4KV2, press the power button.
The FieldVision 4KV2 will turn on and enter ready mode,
and the power indicator LED will turn green.

MOUNTING THE FIELDVISION
4
KV 2
Use the FieldVision 4KV2’s 1/4″-20 threaded socket to attach
the monitor to your mounting system or the included ball
head. Make sure your bracket can support the monitor.
CONNECTING THE VIDEO SOURCE
HDMI Input: The FieldVision 4KV2 is equipped with an HDMI
input for use as a wired high-denition video monitor.
1. Use a compatible HDMI cable (such as the included mini to
full-size HDMI cable) to connect your HDMI video source to
the FieldVision 4KV2’s HDMI input.
2. Press the Mode button to cycle through the input modes
until HDMI appears on the monitor. If your HDMI video
source is sending a signal to the monitor, the image will
appear on-screen, and the power indicator LED will turn
green.
Attention: Whether you are monitoring sound through the
speaker, you can avoid audio feedback or sudden audio bursts
by turning down the internal speaker volume. Press and hold the
Left Nav button to lower the volume.
USING THE
OCM-7B-4KV2

12
Composite Video Input: To use your FieldVision 4KV2 as a
wired standard-denition video monitor, you’ll need an A/V
breakout cable (available separately).
1. Insert the 1/8″(3.5 mm) plug into the A/V input on the
side of the monitor.
2. Connect your composite video source to the yellow RCA
jack.
3. If desired, connect your audio source to the white (L) and
red (R) audio jacks.
4. Press the Mode button to cycle through the input modes
until AV appears on the monitor. If your composite video
source is sending a signal to the monitor, the image will
appear on-screen, and the power indicator LED will glow
green.
If your video source is not connected, the screen will display a
no-signal message.
Note: When using the composite video input, your audio
source must be plugged into the FieldVision 4KV2’s
composite audio input in order to monitor the sound.
To turn the screen off, press the power button. The screen will
go black, and the indicator LED will glow red to show that the
power is on and the screen is in sleep mode.

13
An HDMI lock is included with the FieldVision 4KV2 to reduce
stress on the HDMI plug and ensure that the plug isn’t pulled out
of the input while you’re shooting.
To install the HDMI lock, follow these steps:
1. Insert the HDMI cable into the HDMI port on the monitor.
2. Place the HDMI lock over the
cable so the opening on the
end of the plate ts onto the
cable and sits ush against
the cable’s strain relief.
3. Insert the HDMI locking screw
into the HDMI locking socket,
and tighten.
Note: Make sure the HDMI lock
holds the cable rmly in the
port. If the cable can wiggle in
the HDMI lock, the connection between your source and the
monitor could be interrupted.

3. Unfold the sunshade and
press the at edge of
the fabric side onto the
touch-connect strip on
the mounting frame.
To remove the sunshade, pull it off of the mounting frame. You
can leave the frame attached for future use, or remove both it

THE
SUNSHADE
The sunshade prevents glare on the monitor’s screen by
blocking out stray light, and it is useful when shooting outdoors.
To attach the sunshade to the monitor, follow these steps:
