How to show histogram on HD-SDI output?

[Dan Kanes]

Hi! We are doing a shoot right now where the operator is using a 5.6" Red LCD.

If I wanted to view the histogram at video village instead of on the onboard LCD, what menu would I do that in? I went through all the menus and it wasn't that obvious. Of course I could just be frazzled from the first day of the shoot.

Thanks for your help anyone!

System>Monitor>Preview>Menus (DVI)

But, your video village monitor must support this resolution (larger than 720P), and, if you have both the EVF and LCD connected, you can't send menus out through any other monitor path.

Dan,

The is no feature to output histogram through the SDI. You either have to hook a scope or use the video monitor that has this feature at the video village. Lim

Ah yes, I was thinking of the hdmi output, which can show the histogram if your monitor can accept the signal (like 1280x848 I think I remember?).
