Description of settings

KNEE
(Camera)

For setting the level (knee point) at which
the high-brightness video signals sensed by
the CCD are to be compressed in order to
minimize color saturation in the highlights of
the image.

AUTO:

The knee point is set automatically in
accordance with the signals sensed.

LOW:

The knee point is set on the low side
(with compression starting from
around 80%).

MID:

The knee point is set at an interim
value (with compression starting from
around 90%).

HIGH:

The knee point is set on the high side
(with compression starting from
around 100%).

DTL CORING
(Camera)

For adjusting the level at which the noise in
the detail signals is to be eliminated.

–7 --- 0 --- +7

When this is adjusted in the “–” direction,
clearer images are produced but the noise
increases slightly.
When it is adjusted in the “+” direction, the
noise decreases.

GAMMA
(Camera)

For selecting the gamma curve.

LOW:

Using a gamma curve with a moderate
gradient for the low-luminance areas, the
images are given a calm, composed look.  
A sharp touch is conveyed by the contrast.

NORM:

Standard images are produced.

HIGH:

Using a gamma curve with a sharp
gradient for the low-luminance areas, the
gradations of the dark areas are
extended to make them appear brighter.
A soft touch is conveyed by the contrast.

B.PRESS:

Images giving the sense of a sharper contrast
than at the LOW setting are produced.

CINE-LIKE:

The gamma curve which gives the
images a cinema-like finish is used.
Images with less noise than at the
CINE_LIKE_D setting are produced.

CINE-LIKE_D:

The dynamic range is higher than at the
CINELIKE setting.

CINE-LIKE_V:

This uses the gamma curve for finishing
the images into movie-like images where
priority is given to contrast.

In order to make full use of the CINE-
LIKE gamma characteristics, it is
recommended that the lens iris be set
lower (by approx. 1/2) than the regular
video level.

The underlining indicates the factory setting.

MATRIX
(Camera)

For selecting the matrix table and
expressing the colors during shooting.

NORM:

Colors suited to shooting outdoors
or under light sources using
halogen lamps are expressed.

ENRICHED:

More vivid colors are expressed
than with the NORM setting.

FLOU:

Colors suited to shooting indoors
under fluorescent light sources
are expressed.

CINE-LIKE:

Colors suited to cinema-like
shooting are expressed.
