Learn Your Way Around the VariCam 35 with Pansonic’s Free Menu Simulator1 min read
Reading Time: < 1 minuteOperating a new camera is thrilling, but it can be pretty frustrating if you don’t know your way around the menu. And if you’re planning on taking on the highly anticipated VariCam, Panasonic has just released free simulation programs that allow you to take a virtual tour of the menus of the VariCam 35 4K cinema camera/recorder, VariCam 35 with Codex V-RAW recorder, and VariCam HS high-speed camera/recorder.
From Panasonic:
The VariCam menu simulators very closely approximate the full range of operation of the cameras’ Remote Operation Panel, and represent an ideal approach for camera operators who want a head-start on familiarising themselves with the equipment, for students who want to prepare in advance of hands-on camera time, and for many others who would benefit from this virtual VariCam interface.
Of course, with every menu simulator you have to keep in mind that it’s not going to be exactly like the real deal; they’re only meant to get users familiar with how the camera’s menu’s operate, giving them, like Panasonic says, a head-start on knowing what to expect when they turn the camera on.
