Waveform (WFM) and Vectorscope
These traditional scopes provide a visual representation of your image. You can cus-
tomize the settings for Waveform Monitoring in the "Waveform tab" on page 111 of the
settings menu.
Luma Waveform
The Luma or Luminance Waveform is a great way to visualize the dynamic range of your
image, allowing you to protect exposure of both your highlights and shadow detail. It’s
particularly useful when shooting with a low contrast LOG curve and works in perfect part-
nership with HDR to illustrate and highlight the clipping point to allow you to correctly
expose you image.
The WFM monitor tool is not currently available for 8Kp30 and 6Kp60 RAW
inputs.
RGB Waveform
RGB Waveform will monitor the level of Red, Green and Blue from an input source. The
RGB channels are displayed side by side and each channel color is shown under the cor-
responding waveform. This can be used to check the white balance. Just point the camera
at something white and the Red, Green and Blue levels should match if white balance is
setup correctly on the camera.
