ARRI ARRIFLEX 235 User Manual

When using anamorphic lenses, the UV-1 allows desqueezed 

viewing of the ground glass image. This viewfinder arm 

can also be switched over to check the anamorphically 

squeezed image. 

•  To switch over the viewfinder image, turn the switching 

knob 

➪ 

. The knob does not need to be unlocked.

All other operating elements are identical in function to 

those on the standard viewfinder. The anamorphic viewfinder 

can also be used together with the 235 finder extender.

Unlike the standard viewfinder, the anamorphic 

viewfinder will only provide an undistorted image in 

horizontal, locked position. The locking stops of the UV-1 

can be adjusted to an exactly horizontal position.

•  Loosen (do not remove) the two allen screws 

➪ 

 

in the locking stop.

•  Move the block 

➪ 

 until the viewfinder image is 

free of distortion.

•  Retighten the allen screws.
