DRS helps assure high image quality
when shooting extremely contrasty
scenes. It's also effective when shooting
standard scenes because it avoids
aliasing (knee artifacts) which can be
unattractive for on-screen talent.
14-bit A/D converter and latest 38-bit Digital Signal Processing (DSP)
provide clear, sharp images from dark to bright areas.
Clear, sharp reproduction of both bright and dark areas.
Dynamic Range Stretch (DRS)
Function
The 12-vector variable masking circuit
allows precise and independent hue
and saturation adjustment of individual
colors.
Color Correction
Separately defocusing two skin tones
helps tone down wrinkles and dull
areas to produce beautiful, naturally
textured results when shooting people.
And since defocusing is possible
throughout the entire hue phase (360
°
),
defocusing can also be applied for
colors other than skin tones.
Skin Tone Detail Correction
Enhanced DTL signal processing
ensures superb picture quality with
minimal noise in horizontal and vertical
directions, as well as in the image's
dark and brightly lit areas.

Sharp, high-quality images
Thanks to its cine gamma curve, the
AK-HC3500 can produce pictures with
the same kind of tonal beauty, natural
gradation, and rich colors you get with
film recordings.

A/D conversion is 14-bit compared to conventional 12-bit. There's also a newly-developed 38-bit Digital Signal
Processing (DSP) and Panasonic's original real-time gamma correction to enable high quality images with Dynamic
Range Stretch (DRS) and other high-performance functions.
• Photos are an approximate image.
When the gamma curve
is adjusted based on
bright areas of the image,
black blocking occurs.
When adjustment is based
on dark areas, some image
parts are washed out.
