VS-100 Quick Start Guide
Black and White Balance Adjustment (VECTORSCOPE)
1.
Aim the camera at a solid white background or white reference
card.
2.
Turn on any set lights and ensure any coloured filters are
removed. We want an evenly lit white reference card or
background with only true white light.
3.
Select VECTORSCOPE mode on the VS-100 using the NEXT
MODE option.
4.
Use the camera’s auto white balance feature to white balance
against the solid white background or reference white card.
5.
If necessary adjust R (Red) or B (Blue) GAIN of the camera to
move the shown sample points for white video into the center
graticule box of the VS-100 Vectorscope.
Correctly centered samples
Incorrect points towards blue
6.
Once white balancing is complete cap the camera lens to
produce black video. The sample points should only appear in
the same center graticule box of the VS-100 Vectorscope.
7.
If necessary adjust R (Red) or B (Blue) GAIN of the camera to
move the shown sample points for black video into the center
graticule box of the VS-100 Vectorscope.
8.
Remove the lens cap and continue to Luminance Adjustment.
