Camera Control Monitor CCM-1

Freedom and functionality for operators

CCM-1_Intro_Image
Versatile monitoring and full camera control

The CCM-1 is a 7” onboard monitor that provides full camera control and menu access for the ALEXA 35 and ALEXA Mini LF. Opening up new camera configuration possibilities, the CCM-1 combines ARRI color accuracy and a bright display with customizable controls and rugged build quality.

A new way to operate

For camera operators who prefer to judge framing and exposure with an onboard monitor rather than a viewfinder, the CCM-1 is an easy choice. It provides an alternative control, menu, and image interface to the MVF-2 viewfinder, which it can either replace entirely or work alongside, and it does so without using up one of the camera’s SDI outputs.

Bright display with color-accurate ARRI image quality


The CCM-1 displays a bright, high-contrast HD image on its 7” IPS LCD screen that is easily viewable in daylight from a range of viewing angles. Like the tried and trusted MVF-2, it connects via the camera’s VF connector and provides an image that faithfully conveys the accuracy and subtlety of ARRI color management. 




Sensor-level monitoring functions make use of the sensor’s full resolution, for example zooming into the image for more accurate focus checking. Tools on the CCM-1 such as false color or peaking are much more user-friendly than on standard SDI-connected monitors because they affect only the image from the camera, and not the status overlays.

Status components

A live image with interactive status components allows quick access to the most frequently adjusted settings. Changes occur in real time and can be viewed live instead of having to switch between a menu and the image.

Screen_4_CCM-1-HOME
Home screen

The familiar ARRI home screen has been updated for the larger CCM-1 display and shows all relevant camera information at a glance. Touching one of the five main exposure parameters will take users to a live image where they can make adjustments with a real-time preview. On the left is an overview of the user button assignments.

Camera menu

The CCM-1 provides access to the complete camera menu for adjustment of any and all camera settings. The menu can be controlled via the touchscreen or physical buttons and offers the same, intuitive layout as the MVF-2.

Screen_3_CCM-1-Playback
Playback control

Improved playback control is accessed via the menu or a user button. An extended clip list can be viewed during playback and includes a handy metadata display.

CCM-1_Sunhood
Sun is not a show stopper

The CCM-1 comes with an innovative sun hood that snaps onto the monitor like a protective case on a smartphone, eliminating the need for Velcro or straps. With a scratch-resistant faux leather finish, the sun hood's soft but rigid side and top flaps are held in place with magnets and can be folded flat for easy storage and safe transportation.

Multiple connection options for greatest flexibility

By using the camera’s VF connector, the CCM-1 leaves both SDI outputs free for other uses. VF cables of up to 10 m in length are supported, providing flexibility of operation for tight spaces, cranes, dollies, and car rigs. The CCM-1 can alternatively be connected via SDI like a normal onboard monitor, allowing use with legacy ALEXA, AMIRA and third party cameras, with full access to the SmallHD toolset. Multiple other connection options facilitate different camera configurations and use cases. 


  • With just one cable, the CCM-1 can perform all functions with VF cables up to 10 m in length, and with a maximum brightness of 30%. This is ideal for quickly changing camera settings on the go, or operating in darker studio environments.

  • For daylight-viewable imagery, a power cable can be added alongside the VF cable for access to 1500 nits of brightness. Power can be supplied by the camera or a local power source such as an onboard battery. 

  • To use the CCM-1 on an ALEXA Mini LF while an MVF-2 is simultaneously used via the VF connector, connect SDI, PWR, and Ethernet (via USB) to the CCM-1 for full brightness and all camera control functionality apart from access to the camera menu.

  • The CCM-1 can also be used as a high-bright, robust, and weather-sealed SDI monitor. With two 3G SDI inputs, loop-out functionality, and the full SmallHD monitoring toolset, it becomes a versatile tool for any focus station, third-party camera, or director’s monitor.
