Chroma Level [–3 to +3]
Set here is the color intensity (chroma level) of the images.
AWB
This is used to execute automatic white balance (AWB) to set the white balance.
For details, refer to page 23.
AWB Mode [ATW, AWB A, AWB B]
The white balance mode is selected here.
Select the mode when the coloring is not natural because of the nature of the light source or other factors.
If the white color serving as the reference can be recognized, subjects can be shot with natural coloring.
ATW | In this mode, the white balance is |
| compensated for automatically, even if |
| changes occur in the light source or color |
| temperature, by a process of continuous and |
| automatic adjustment. |
|
|
AWB A, | When AWB A or AWB B is selected and the |
AWB B | white balance is executed, the adjustment |
| results obtained are stored in the memory |
| selected. |
| When AWB A or AWB B is then selected, the |
| white balance stored in the selected memory |
| can be recalled. |
Note
ppWhen preset settings have been called from the AW‑RP655, the AWB mode which was set when the preset data was registered by the AW‑RP655 will be called.
R Gain, B Gain [–30 to +30]
When “AWB A” or “AWB B” is selected as the AWB Mode setting, the white balance can be finely adjusted after automatic white balance (AWB) has been performed.
Notes
ppWhen automatic white balance (AWB) is executed, the R Gain and B Gain values are returned to “0”.
ppWhen “AWB A” or “AWB B” is selected as the AWB Mode setting, the R Gain and B Gain adjustment values can be stored in the two memories, A and B.
ppWhen new values are set, the previous values are erased.
Use each of the memories for a different purpose in accordance with the shooting conditions.
ppIn terms of registering values in the preset memories, the R Gain and B Gain settings
ppIf settings in the preset memories are recalled when “Mode A” has been selected as the Preset Scope setting, the R Gain and B Gain settings are
returned to “0”.
ppWhen “ATW” has been selected as the AWB Mode setting, the R Gain and B Gain cannot be adjusted.
Detail [Off, Low, High]
The image detail (image sharpness) is adjusted here. When “Low” or “High” is selected, the detail is enhanced.
Flesh Tone Mode [Off, Low, High]
Set here is the flesh tone mode for displaying the subjects’ skin so that it appears more smoothly and eye‑pleasingly. When “Low” or “High” is selected, the effect is enhanced.
DNR [Off, Low, High]
Set here is the level of the digital noise reduction effect so that light,
When “Low” or “High” is selected, noise can be eliminated. However, there is an increased possibility that afterimages may occur.
Pedestal [–10 to +10]
This item is used to adjust the black level (adjust the pedestal) so that the dark parts of the images are easier to see.
These parts become darker when a negative setting is selected and, conversely, lighter when a positive setting is selected.
DRS [Off, Low, High]
Set here is the DRS function which provides just the right amount of compensation when images with significant light/dark differences are displayed.
When “Low” or “High” is selected, the effect is enhanced even more.
This may make noise more perceptible with some scenes.
Gamma Type [Off, Normal, Cinema]
Selected here is the type of gamma curve.
The selected setting takes effect when “Off” is selected as the “DRS” item setting.
Normally, the “Normal” setting is used.
When “Cinema” is selected, images giving off an atmosphere like movies can be shot.
Gamma Level [Low, Mid, High]
This item is used to adjust the gamma compensation level. The item’s setting takes effect when “Off” has been selected as the “DRS” setting and “Normal” as the “Gamma Type” setting.
When “Low” is set, the images appear sedate and composed. The resulting gamma curve has a gentle gradient in the
Conversely, when “High” is set, the tonal range in the dark area is expanded so that the images take on a lighter tone. The resulting gamma curve has a sharp gradient in the
