Adaptive Highlight Control (Auto Knee mode)
The Sony ADSP system intelligently monitors the brightness
of all areas of the picture and automatically adapts the knee
point/slope for optimum reproduction within given areas of
the scene area. A typical example is the ability to shoot an
interior scene which includes a sunlit exterior seen through a
window.
Knee Saturation Function
The Sony TruEye processor is one of the most innovative
features of Sony’s ADSP development, makes it possible to
reproduce very natural colors in a high contrast scene
content. Without TruEye, when only knee correction is
applied to the RGB channels, a color distortion in highlight
areas will occur. A typical example is human skin tones
which tend to take on a yellow tone in highlights. Knee
Saturation processing automatically retains accurate color in
highlight areas and maintains color saturation in picture
areas compensated by the TruEye processor.
Highlight HandlingSony Advanced TruEye™ processing allows much improved
highlight handling, with faithful color reproduction.
