Chapter 5 Shooting — Image quality adjustment
Image quality adjustment
The image quality of the video to record can be set in the [SCENE FILE] menu. Measurement equipment such as a vector scope is necessary to change
“Advanced settings”.
Detail function
This function thickens or weakens the outlines of images. It effectively softens or sharpens images, but in some cases, the whole image may become
rough due to emphasized noise and edges. To avoid such problems, it is necessary not to add this effect on parts where emphasizing is not needed and
keep the details of the parts.
r
General settings
[MASTER DTL]:
Sets the level of the detail effect as a whole.

Sets [ON]/[OFF] of the detail function.
[V.DTL LEVEL]:
Sets the intensity of the detail level in the vertical direction.
[DTL FREQ.]:
Sets the thickness of the detail.
[LEVEL DEPEND.]:
Compresses details in the darker areas when the detail of luminosity signal is emphasized. Details of bright areas are also
compressed more when the value set for [LEVEL DEPEND.] is larger.
[KNEE APE LVL]:
Sets the detail level of high luminosity areas (high-brightness areas).
[DTL GAIN(+)]:
Sets the detail level of the
+
direction (to make brighter).

independently or in combination.
[SKIN TONE ZEBRA]:

which the following skin tone is applied, using the axis across red and cyan (I axis) and the axis across green and magenta (Q axis).
[I CENTER]:
Sets the center position on the I axis (the area where the skin tone applied).
[I WIDTH]:
Sets the area width where the skin tone is applied, along the I axis with [I CENTER] in the center.
[Q WIDTH]:
Sets the area width where the skin tone is applied, along the Q axis with [I CENTER] in the center.
[Q PHASE]:
Sets the phase where the skin tone is applied, with the Q axis being the reference.
