LUT Applied to Clip
If you have chosen to apply a LUT to your recorded clips in the 'record' settings tab,
the touchscreen indicates this in standby mode and when recording.
The LUT icon lets you know that recorded clips will
have the selected LUT recorded with the clip.

Dropped Frame Indicator
The 'record' button is overlaid with a flashing '!' indicator if your Pocket Cinema Camera 4K
begins dropping frames while recording. The time remaining indicator for the affected card also
turns red. For example, if your CFast card is dropping frames, the '!' indicator appears over the
'record' button, and the time remaining indicator on the CFast card turns red. This lets you know
if a particular card is too slow for your currently selected codec and resolution. The 'dropped
frame indicator' also appears if you have dropped a frame on the previously recorded clip.
This indicator continues until another clip is recorded, or the camera is power cycled. Refer to
the 'Choosing a CFast 2.0 card' and 'Choosing an SD Card' sections for more information on
how to avoid dropping frames.

NOTE
You can set your Blackmagic Pocket Cinema Camera 4K to stop recording if
dropped frames are detected to avoid recording unusable footage. See the 'record
settings' section in this manual for more information.
