Menu Screen

	Item			Function/Setting (bold characters indicate initial settings)
BLACK*1		Changes the gain in dark areas. Change this depending on the video signal being shot.
		NORMAL		: Normal status
		STRETCH		: Enhances the dark areas of the video so the contrast between light and dark is more visible by
				stretching the signal only in the dark areas.
				Set elongation level with STRETCH LEVEL below.
		COMPRESS		: If the video that was shot is bright overall and lacking in contrast, the gain in the dark areas is com-
				pressed, which adds contrast.
				Set compression level with COMPRESS LEVEL below.
	STRETCH LEVEL	The amount of stretching increases from LEVEL1οLEVEL2οLEVEL3οLEVEL4οLEVEL5.
		[Settings: LEVEL1, LEVEL2, LEVEL3, LEVEL4, LEVEL5]
	COMPRESS LEVEL	The amount of compression increases from LEVEL1οLEVEL2οLEVEL3οLEVEL4οLEVEL5.
			[Settings: LEVEL1, LEVEL2, LEVEL3, LEVEL4, LEVEL5]
WHITE CLIP		Sets the white clipping point on input video signals with a high luminance level.
		108%		: The white clipping point is set at a luminance level of 108%.
		100%		: The white clipping point is set at a luminance level of 100%. If the screen is too white at
				108%, set it to 100%.
KNEE*1		Sets whether to run the “knee” function, which compresses video signals over a certain level to render the tonality
		in the highlight areas, automatically or manually. Set “MANUAL” when you want to check the bright areas, and adjust
		the knee point manually.
		AUTO		: Adjusts the knee point automatically, according to the luminance level.
		MANUAL		: You can change the luminance level in the “LEVEL” item.
	LEVEL*1	Sets the start point for knee compression (knee point).
		Increase the number : Raises the knee point level.
		Decrease the number : Lowers the knee point level.
		[Settings: 80%, 85%, 90%, 95%, 100%]
			MEMO
			When the “KNEE” item is set to “AUTO”, “-----” is displayed and this cannot be selected.
REVERSE PICTURE		When the lens image is inverted and flipped, set “ROTATE” to record properly.
		OFF		: No inversion.
		ROTATE		: Invert lens image.
			MEMO
			When the REVERSE PICTURE item is set to ROTATE, skin detail function is available but the detection area is
			not displayed in the viewfinder or LCD screen.
DNR		Selects whether or not to set the noise reduction.
		The DNR (Digital Noise Reduction) function is applied to the tape recording signal, HD component output signal, and
		the IEEE1394 output signal in CAMERA mode.
		When camcorder’s picture is noisy, because of low light conditions, you can improve picture’s S/N by turning DNR
		on.
		OFF		: Noise reduction is not performed.
		ON		: Sets noise reduction.
			MEMO
			• DNR is not applied in VTR mode, AUX IN mode or during playback.
			• DNR is not applied to composite output signals in CAMERA mode.
			• When the DNR is set to ON, the camcorder’s S/N ratio becomes better but the “blurring of moving objects” will
			increase.

		Increase the number		: Enhances the tonality of the black. However, the tonality in the bright areas deteriorates.
		Decrease the number : Enhances the tonality in the bright areas. However, the tonality in the black areas deterio-
				rates.
