Colour /Hue Adjustment (PARADE RGB / YCbCr)
1.
Under the same on set lighting conditions aim the camera at a
colour reference chart (such as DSC labs
’ Chroma Du Monde).
2.
Adjust the colour level of the camera to give its image the
required warmer or colder look according to your preference.
3.
Select PARADE mode (RGB or YCbCr) on the VS-100 using
the NEXT MODE option.
4.
PARADE displays the characteristic colour levels on a scale. If
the camera is pointed at the Chroma Du Monde reference chart,
the operator can now set the camera to standardised colour
levels such as R:650mv G:600mv B:600mv. These adopted set
reference points can then ensure image consistency in future
production runs and any post production grading.
5.
Once the first camera is correctly set for colour select TOOLS>
TRACE MEMORY> SAVE TRACE to save the current parade
trace from the first camera.
6.
Now connect VS-100 to the second camera on the set. Adjust
the white, black balance and luminance on the next camera as
described earlier.
7.
Now adjust the colour on the second camera output so that it
matches the saved Parade from the first camera. The same
procedure can be repeated for any remaining cameras.
