Knee Ape Control; White Clip - Panasonic AJ-PX230 User Manual

3-3. KNEE APE control

When compressing highlight portions with KNEE control to avoid overexposed image (blown-out highlights), detail signal
will also be compressed and it may cause softening in highlight areas. This can be compensated by using KNEE APE
LEVEL control.
