O. Using the Cine EI Mode (in detail)
Section Introduction
The Cine EI mode is quite different to custom mode and
the way a conventional video camera works. In the Cine
EI mode the camera always records using the S-Log3
gamma curve at either the Hi (800 ISO) or Low (4000 ISO)
base sensitivity. You cannot add gain in the Cine EI mode
as this would reduce the dynamic range. Instead you have
the ability to alter the EI – Exposure Index.
NOTE:
The FX9 has a very large dynamic range. Too
large for S-Log2 to record so there is no S-Log2 option,
only S-Log3.
The base exposure level for S-Log3 is:
Middle Grey
White Grey
41%
61%
