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.
∫
General settings
[MASTER DTL]:
Sets the level of the detail effect as a whole.
[DTL CORING]:
Sets the level of signal (including noise) so that the detail effect does not activate.
∫
Advanced settings
[V.DTL LEVEL]:
Sets the intensity of the detail level in the vertical direction.
Skin tone function
This function makes human skin look smoother in images.
∫
General settings
[SKIN TONE DTL.]
∫
Advanced settings
There are no setting items.
RB gain control function
This is a function that adds or reduces the intensities of reds and blues when the white balance setting is [Ach] or [Bch]. It works when auto white balance
is enabled.
≥
It does not work when the white balance setting is [ATW], [P 3200K], [P 5600K], or “VAR”.
∫
General settings
Use the unit with the factory settings.
∫
Advanced settings
Set with the [SCENE FILE] menu
[RB GAIN CONTROL SETTING].
≥
When the white balance setting is [Ach]
[R GAIN AWB A]:
Sets to add or reduce the intensity of the red color.
[B GAIN AWB A]:
Sets to add or reduce the intensity of the blue color.
≥
When the white balance setting is [Bch]
[R GAIN AWB B]:
Sets to add or reduce the intensity of the red color.
[B GAIN AWB B]:
Sets to add or reduce the intensity of the blue color.
≥
When the white balance setting is [Ach] and auto white balance is performed
[AWB A GAIN OFFSET]:
Sets whether to keep or reset the values set for [R GAIN AWB A] and [B GAIN AWB A].
≥
When the white balance setting is [Bch] and auto white balance is performed
[AWB B GAIN OFFSET]:
Sets whether to keep or reset the values set for [R GAIN AWB B] and [B GAIN AWB B].
Chroma setting function
This function sets color saturation and phase. It applies effects on whole images. It cannot be set to individual color hue.
∫
General settings
[CHROMA LEVEL]:
Sets the chroma level of the P
R
signal and P
B
signal. When the vector scope is used, the distance from the center (no color) is
increased or decreased for the entire image.
[CHROMA PHASE]:
Finely adjusts the chroma phase of the P
R
signal and P
B
signal. When the vector scope is used, the whole image rotates clockwise
or counter-clockwise.
∫
Advanced settings
No setting items are provided.
Matrix function
This function sets the image color representation by selecting the matrix table.
∫
General settings
[MATRIX]
∫
Advanced settings
There are no setting items.
