False color is used for setting the correct exposure level or ISO
setting on your camera. It is important to use false color when
you are shooting in low light and direct light situations because
if your shot is severely under/overexposed you may not have to
re-shoot an entire scene of your video. This is how you use this
feature.
To activate False Color press MENU scroll to the Advanced Tab
and turn the False Color slider to the ON position hit MENU
again to activate it. To deactivate it follow the reverse
procedure. If you have a HD089BV2 or HD089CV2 you can
assign a hotkey to this feature under the setup tab.

be totally white (0-2 IRE).

Lighter shadows & dark colors such as a dark grey or a shadow
