White Shading Adjustment

It is necessary to perform this adjustment to the camera when attaching a lens that is different from the previously attached lens.

Setting in the WHITE BALANCE screen is performed as fol- lows.

Even if white balance is achieved in the middle of the screen, it may not be achieved at the top and bottom of the screen. Greens and magentas may be colored. This is due to char- acteristics of the lens. Correcting this phenomenon is called White Shading Adjustment.

Perform this after adjusting white balance.

White shading adjustment is performed on the WHITE BAL- ANCE menu screen.

Adjustment procedure

2.Set the camera’s lens controls as follows:

a.Set the IRIS opening to F4 or higher number.

3.Shoot a uniformly lit white sheet of paper and fill the mon- itor screen with it.

4.Set the monitor CHROMA level to maximum.

5.Check the color of the monitor screen. If the top and the bottom of the monitor screen are white then no adjust- ment is necessary. If the top of the monitor screen is greenish and the bottom is reddish or if the top is reddish and the bottom is greenish then continue with this adjust- ment.
