Manufactured by Alan Gordon Enterprises, the Mark Vb Director’s Viewfinder is the latest version of the ACADEMY AWARD® Winning Mark V and continues to be the choice of Film and Videomakers worldwide. The Mark Vb has all the features of the Mark V plus new markings on the Aspect Ratio ring, making it easier to read for both film and video use. We also eliminated the 1/2 ” video window and replaced it with the current video chip standard of 2/3.” Film sizes and video formats are color-coded for quick reading.

The finder is now set for Super 35 and this setting is also true for the following digital camera sensors: Arri Alexa, Sony F35 PL, Sony F65, Red Epic-X, Red Scarlet, Red One, Canon 7D, and the Phantom HD Gold.
