Service Client de Parallax Monitor

X-LIGHTS EXPOSURE

X-Lights are Parallax's custom exposure assists for quick on-set decisions. They summarize highlight and shadow pressure from the pre-LUT live-view signal, while waveform, histogram, zebras, false color, and exposure posts give deeper confirmation when the shot is critical.

Monitor with a LUT without hiding the signal. Parallax keeps the look and exposure readout separate, so a pleasing preview does not cover up clipped highlights, crushed shadows, or a risky exposure choice.

STILLS MODE

Switch from motion to stills without leaving the operator surface. Parallax supports photo-mode workflows where available, including still capture, photo-focused readouts, tap focus behavior, quick still review, favorite/save actions, and playback-side photo preview.

Use it for BTS frames, thumbnails, continuity references, social images, client stills, or productions where one Nikon body moves between motion and stills.

SET TO SOCIAL REVIEW

Review what you shot while the crew is still packed around the camera. Parallax can scan camera media, load thumbnails, stream playable MP4/MOV clips, scrub takes, check audio, and preview playback through your selected monitoring LUT.

Save source clips to Photos or render a LUT-baked copy from playback for quick sharing, producer review, or handoff to social apps and editors. Less laptop detour, more useful material leaving set while it still matters.

NATIVE H.265 PLAYBACK

Parallax uses iOS-native playback for playable camera files, including H.265/HEVC media where supported by the device, camera format, and connection path. High-resolution files can be reviewed with cache, scrub, volume, thumbnails, favorites, delete, and save workflows.

LIVE VIEW AND GUIDES

Use Live View with LUT preview, waveform, histogram, zebras, false color, focus peaking, X-Lights, camera level, audio meters, recording border, recording timer, presets, and frame guides.

Frame for the edit before the edit asks for it: thirds, golden ratio, safe areas, 1.85, 2.00, 2.39, 4:3, 1:1, 9:16, 4:5, custom aspect ratios, matte controls, guide opacity, and multiple simultaneous guides for cinema, vertical, and social delivery.

Anamorphic monitoring is built in with 1.33x, 1.5x, 1.8x, and 2x desqueeze workflows.

LOCAL VIEWER SCREENS

Turn nearby iPhones and iPads into extra read-only monitors on the same local network. One host device stays connected to the Nikon camera while viewer devices discover the host and receive the Live View feed for a director monitor, client view, focus reference, or second operator display.

NIKON OPS

Keep operator settings close: aperture, ISO, dual base ISO, shutter speed, shutter angle, exposure compensation, white balance, Kelvin, resolution, frame rate, codec, card slot, timecode, audio input sensitivity, AF trigger, AF mode, AF area mode, and record start/stop where supported.

CONNECTIONS AND FIELD SUPPORT

Connect over Wi-Fi with camera discovery, direct/AP-style connection, pairing support, and quick reconnect. Parallax also includes USB diagnostics, transport switching, connection recovery hints, and support logs to help isolate real-world setup issues.

Compatibility notes: Parallax is fully compatible with the ZR, Z8, Z9, Z50II, and Z6III. Parallax Monitor is independent and is not affiliated with Nikon, RED, or their subsidiaries.
