qqColor phase adjustment

The color phase adjustment must be performed if the pictures are to be switched using a video switcher or other device when the video output signals have been set as composite signals.

It need not be performed when the video output signals have been set as component signals.

The camera’s color phase is aligned with the program output (split color bar output) signals of a color special effect device or other color tones that will serve as the reference.

(The color phase can be adjusted more accurately if a vectorscope is used for the adjustment.)
