High Dynamic Range (HDR)

* On the PXW-FS5, this function is supported
using Ver. 4.0 or later (see page 5).
Reproduction of brightness over a wider
range than previously available is now
supported by applying an HDR-compatible
picture profile. The camcorder supports
Hybrid Log-Gamma (HLG), with four
selectable settings.
The [HLG] setting is equivalent to ITU-R
BT.2100. The [HLG1], [HLG2], and
[HLG3] settings enable images to be
reproduced with a wider dynamic range
without images that appear unnatural, as
can arise in existing camera image
reproduction.

dynamic range that can be shot
is narrower.
[HLG2] Setting with balance between
dynamic range and noise
suppression.
[HLG3] Setting that provides wider
dynamic range than [HLG2].
However, the noise level rises.
