The LDK 5309/10 is a compact, high-quality, 9-inch flat panel color viewfinder designed to work with most current Grass Valley™ LDK Series high-definition cameras. The stylish design allows for direct mounting to the mini wedge plate of the camera head in both EFP and SuperXpander configurations. For optimized viewing position, the LDK 5309 has an articulated mounting bracket which allows the operator to move the viewfinder in many positions including straight behind the camera, which avoids blocking the view of the audience positioned behind the camera.

With high brightness and contrast, and a fast display refresh rate, the LDK 5309 is the perfect color viewfinder for both indoor and outdoor applications.

The LDK 5309 has an intuitive menu structure which not only allows operators to change the viewfinder settings, but can also be used to call up the camera system menu via the viewfinder controls.

Three rotary controls—for contrast, brightness, and peaking settings—are easily accessible at the front panel. In addition, three user assignable push buttons are located at the front bezel of the viewfinder.

The color temperature of the display can be adjusted to match the operator's personal preference, without affecting the main video signal, allowing the operator to match the display color temperature with the color temperature of the scene.
