Item Setting Notes
MASTER PED Adjusts the black master pedestal that serves as the
video reference.
–100 ... +15
*1 ... +100
• Hold down the JOG dial button and
turn it downwards or upwards and
maintain this position to quickly
change values.
• When a remote controller (AJ-RC10G)
is connected, use the M-PED control
on the remote controller to adjust.
A. IRIS LEVEL Sets the AUTO IRIS target value.
–10 ... 0
*1 ... +10
DRS EFFECT Sets the compression level in high-brightness areas of
the DRS (dynamic range stretcher) function.
This function compresses the video signal level to
extend the dynamic range making it possible to
correctly render highlight areas without overexposure
and loss of detail that would otherwise occur.
1, 2, 3
*1
• Higher numbers mean a higher compression level of
high-brightness areas and more noise in dark areas.
• Not available at 1080/30P or 1080/24P.
• The 1/15 and 1/30 shutter speeds are
not available in 1080/60i mode.
GAMMA Selects the gamma curve.
HD NORM
*1 : Gamma setting for HD recording.
LOW: Applies a gently rising gamma curve to low-
brightness areas for a balanced look.
SD NORM:
Normal video setting inherited from the
DVX100 series.
HIGH:
Applies a steep gamma curve to low brightness
areas to expand the tonality of dark areas for video
with greater brightness. Contrast softens as a result.
B.PRESS:
Produces sharper contrast than LOW.
CINE-LIKE D: Applies a gamma curve to produce
video with a cine-like feel.
CINE-LIKE V:
Applies a gamma curve to produce
high-contrast video with a cine-like feel.
• A lens aperture set lower than normal video level
(approx. 1/2) is recommended when using cine-like
gamma to enjoy the full benefit of the function.
• A change in settings during DRS
operation will not change video quality.
KNEE Sets the compression level (knee point) of the high
brightness video signals received through the MOS
sensor to avoid overexposure.
HIGH:
High setting (compression starts at approx.
100%)
MID:
Medium setting (compression starts at approx.
90%)
LOW
*1 : Low setting (compression starts at approx.
80%)
• A change in settings during DRS
operation will not change video quality.
MATRIX Selects the MATRIX table to reproduce color during
shooting.
NORM1
*1 : Ensures proper color rendition when
shooting out in the open or under halogen lighting.
NORM2:
Produces more vivid colors than NORM1.
FLUO: Ensures proper color rendition when shooting
indoors under fluorescent lighting.
CINE-LIKE:
Produces a tone similar to movie film. .
SKIN TONE DTL Turns the skin tone detail on or off.
When on, reduces detail to hide any skin blemishes.
ON, OFF
*1
*1 The factory default when the SCENE FILE dial is set to F1.
____ indicates the factory setting
