You can use this function to
enhance or compress reproduction
of black areas on the screen. When
stretched, the contrast of high-
contrast images is reduced so that
you can capture both highlights and
shadows. With 0.45 gamma, you
can shoot with ambient lighting only
(no fill light required), allowing you
to obtain better detail reproduction
in bright or shadowed areas. When
compressed, the contrast is in-
creased, making colors richer.
Video Scan Mode; It is
possible to select be-
tween video or "Hi Res
Frame Mode" for a more
cinematographc effect.
Full Auto Shooting; In
an emergency, or when
it's not possible to
pause to adjust white
balance or change the
gain, the Full Auto Shooting mode
provides point-and-shoot ease of
operation, leaving you simply to
zoom, focus, and press the record
button. Activating Full Auto Shooting
puts the camera in the Auto Iris
mode, even if the lens is set to
manual. Automatic Video Level
Control (ALC) is also activated, along
with Extended Electronic Iris (EEI)
which provide both variable gain
and variable shutter and Full Auto
White to follow color temperature.
This means you can shoot con-
tinuously from a dark to a bright and
indoor to outdoor without changing
gain, iris, white balance or ND filter.
Functions and switch layout
for professionals; In addition to the
Full Auto Shooting to handle difficult
or variable lighting environments,
the GY-DV5000 is equipped with an
array of pro-level functions that
provide professionals with the
creative flexibility they need. These
include soft detail correction, Skin
Tone Detection, fully adjustable
gamma, Iris over/ under Black
Stretch/Compress, Frame Mode etc.
The GY-DV5000's switches have
also been arranged in the way that
most professionals are accustomed
to, making operation more intuitive,
precise, easy, and error-free. Since
you won't have to "re-learn" how to
use this camcorder all over again,
the GY-DV5000 is the ideal camera
for any assignment. 400% wide
dynamic range; The DV5000's
super fast multi-stream parallel
processing DSP creates an ultra-
smooth gamma curve calculated
using a true log scale algorithm. The
result is a dynamic range of over
400% that accurately reproduces
fine details and
colors in both shadowed and high-
lighted areas. LOLUX 0.4 lux (F1.4);
When activated, the LOLUX mode
increases sensitivity with almost no
increase in noise. LOLUX increases
the gain by +36 dB so you can
capture high-quality video footage
with excellent color balance, en-
hanced gradations, and minimal
color smear in low-light conditions.
New audio-related functions;
When color bars are output, audio
reference signals (test tone) are also
output. The audio reference signal
can be set to -12 dB or -20 dB as
required. In addition, a "wind out"
function is provided to minimize
extraneous noise picked up by the
microphone. 2.5-inch tri-mode LCD
display; The 200,000-pixel 2.5"
color TFT LCD monitor provides a
high-resolution 440 TVL video im-
age during shooting or instant re-
play. Like the viewfinder, it has an
adjustable peaking and zebras that
simplify focus and iris setting. A
push button selects three display
modes: Video only, Video images
with text information overlay in-
cluding time, status, mode, and
other data are shown on the screen,
Data information only including
time, status, mode, and other data
are shown on the screen. The
monitor tilts up 180 degrees for
high-angled overhead shooting
and tilts down 90 degrees for
low-angle shots. Video-only can be
displayed or with data
overlayed--or data alone can be
displayed. Optional 1.5" CRT
black & white viewfinder; The
high-resolution viewfinder shows
your subject in black and white,
making it easy to locate and frame
your subject with the monitor
closed. The view-
finder can be
moved forward or
backward and the
view angle can be
adjusted so you can
easily keep your
subject in frame. The
viewfinder can be
raised about 90
degrees for high-angle shooting.
Larger studio viewfinders are also
optionally available. Light link
function; When you use an Anton
Bauer battery (option), you can link
light (option) ON/OFF switching to
the recording trigger. You can also
turn it on all the time with the
switch if required. Time/date re-
cording; Time and date with
seconds resolution can be re-
corded on the tape over color bars
or video. Time and date are also
overlaid over the video output.
