–50 to +50 (±0)
–20 to +50 (±0)
These settings control the lower part of the gamma curve (dark areas of the image). These settings
are only available when the gamma curve component of the [Gamma/Color Space] setting is set to
one of the [BT.709 Normal] options.
[Level]: Raises or lowers the lower part of the gamma curve.
[Range]: Selects the adjustment range from the selected [Point].
[Point]: Determines the shape of the lower part of the gamma curve.
[On], [Off]
Set this setting to [On] to enable the adjustment of color saturation in dark areas with the [Level]
setting.
–50 to +50 (±0)
Specifies how saturated colors are in dark areas.
[On], [Off]
Set this setting to [On] to enable the adjustment of the knee point with the following settings. These
settings are only available when the gamma curve component of the [Gamma/Color Space] setting is
set to one of the [BT.709 Normal] options.
–35 to +50 (±0)
50 to 109 (95)
–10 to +10 (±0)
These settings control the upper part of the gamma curve (highlights of the image). By compressing
the highlights, you can prevent parts of the image from being overexposed.
[Slope]: Determines the slope of the gamma curve above the knee point.
[Point]: Sets the knee point of the gamma curve.
[Saturation]: Adjusts the color saturation in the highlights.
–10 to +50 (±0)
Sets the sharpness level of the video output signal and the recorded signal.
–8 to +8 (±0)
Sets the center frequency of horizontal sharpness. Setting higher values increases the frequency,
which, in turn, increases the sharpness.
–30 to +50 (±0)
Sets the level of correction of artifacts caused by high sharpness levels (coring). Higher values
prevent sharpness from being applied to minute details, resulting in less noise.
