SHOOT MODE

Switch between CINE and CUSTOM on this line.

D-RANGE

With EXTEND, the dynamic range and sensitivity are improved. The S/N ratio is improved with NORMAL.

COLOR SPACE

To shoot with color space equivalent to that available with conventional cameras, set to F900.

The WIDE setting permits you to shoot with color space wider than that with conventional cameras.

Note

WIDE Color Space mode is appropriate for viewing on a wide color space display, for film conversion, and for color space conversion processes in post production. Images shot with the WIDE setting will be seen in somewhat pale colors if they are reproduced on a conventional narrow color space display. Select WIDE or F900, depending on your purpose.

For details on menu operations, see “4-2 Basic Menu Operations” (page 52).
