Using LINEAR gamma profile setting on Rainbow HD monitors creates a display appearance similar to raising camera ASA to 3200, making dark footage more visible during night shoots
LINEAR gamma setting works similarly on Cinemonitor HD line monitors
Pressing and holding the monitor knob closes menus quickly without requiring scrolling through multiple menu levels
The 10% zoom feature available on Evolution and X-sbl monitors with firmware 7.24 enlarges the image and removes status information while preserving surrounding view
Pressing and holding zoom button centers the image in 10% zoom mode, with settings automatically recalled on startup
Framelines can be added to match the zoom factor of the selected magnification level
Firmware 7.26 for Cinemonitor HD added wireless horizon axis controls, modified horizon style, improved Bluetooth connectivity with VH3, and improved device scanning
Cinemonitor HD firmware supports zooming into ALEXA 4:3 mode footage

Functionality varies between monitor models and firmware versions
Linear gamma is a workaround to assist visibility during difficult lighting conditions rather than a replacement for proper exposure metering
10% zoom feature requires specific firmware version and monitor models
