Settings and Adjustments Basic 3 Chapter

• If a gamma other than S-LOG is selected

The upper limit is clipped according to the output video limitation specified by the gamma setting.

When you select a curve as Hyper Gamma No. 4, which compresses 460% input to 109%, the output video is fed within the range up to 460% of input video even if 800% is displayed on the subdisplay as the dynamic range as the output video is limited to 109%.

Using CvpFileEditor V4.0, you can change the dynamic range of Hyper Gamma and create a user gamma curve having no dynamic range limitation.

•If the white clip function is in use

As the white clip function limits the level of output video, the dynamic range specified for the input video may not be obtained for video output.

•If “Select FPS” is ON and Compensation is in Gain mode

The value of the dynamic range may decrease by up to half at maximum, depending on the FPS settings.

Memo

Why the ISO sensitivity is defined for 20% input

Defining the level of gray scale of 18% reflection rate for the ISO sensitivity on the linear curve (defining with input signal) permits you to use the values as the absolute reference for proper gamma conversion in postproduction. In addition, defining the output for 20% input with ITU- R709 so that it becomes the reference code for Cineon curve allows high compatibility.

3-2-6 Selection of a Lens File

With this camera, the compensation data for the mounted lens can be adjusted in Custom mode and registered in the built-in memory in lens files (max. 32 files).

You can invoke the compensation data for the mounted lens by merely selecting the corresponding file.

Lens file selection page

LENS:1

No Offset

On the first line, select the number of the lens file.

On the second line, the lens-file name corresponding to the selected file is displayed.

The selected lens file will be retained until a new lens file is selected. As long as the same lens is used, further selection of the lens file is not required.

Note

All the lens files are named “No Offset,” with all zero settings at shipment. File registration and modification of data in a lens file must be performed in Custom mode.

For details on the lens files, see “Chapter 5 Storage and Retrieval of User Setting Data”.

3-2-7 Confirmation of the Time Code and Tape Remaining

When the SRW-1 HD Portable Digital Recorder is attached to this camera, the time code of the recorder and approximate tape remaining (unit: minutes) can be confirmed on the subdisplay.

Time code/tape remaining display page

TCR 00:00:00:00 20min

The time code is displayed on the first line, and the approximate tape remaining is displayed on the second line, in the range of 1 to 99 min.
