Adjusting the white shading
This unit can store up to 8 white shading compensations as white shading files in memory. Using this data, it is possible to quickly reproduce the appropriate white shading adjustment even after switching lenses.
Follow the procedure described below when repeating a white shading adjustment or when creating a new white shading file.
White shading files
Storing of white shading adjustment values in memory for each lens changed and reading of data which has been stored are performed using the menus.
<Notes>
O The method below can be used for the white shading adjustments with most lenses. However, with some very special lenses, a different adjustment method may be necessary.
O Even when the white shading has been adjusted, tinting may occur in the vertical direction near the lens aperture open position. This is a phenomenon which is inherent to lenses and optical systems and is not indicative of malfunctioning.
Storing white shading adjustment values
1 Attach the lens to the camera.
At this stage, do not forget to connect the lens cable.
2 Set the electronic shutter to OFF, and set the gain to “L (0 dB).”
GAIN: L (0 dB)
SHUTTER: OFF
3 If the lens is provided with an extender, disengage the extender function.
