5. Shooting
Configuring Basic Operation
Before shooting, configure the basic operation
of the unit on the Project status screen to suit
the application.
Shooting Mode
You can switch the shooting mode between
"Cine EI" where the unit is operated similarly to
a film camera with footage developed in post-
production, and "Custom" for creating images
flexibly on-site.
Set the shooting mode using Shooting Mode
(page 28) on the Project status screen.
[Tip]
You can also set the shooting mode using Base Setting
>Shooting Mode (page 43) in the Project menu of the
full menu.
Cine EI
When the shooting mode is set to Cine EI,
select the base color gamut for the recording
signal and output signal. The color gamut
selected here is the color gamut of the
recorded video and the video output when the
monitor LUT is set to Off.
You can set the color gamut using Cine EI
Setting >Color Gamut (page 44) in the
Project menu of the full menu.
• S-Gamut3.Cine/SLog3: Easy to adjust color
gamut for digital cinema (DCI-P3).
• S-Gamut3/SLog3: Sony wide color gamut
that covers the ITU-R BT.2020 color gamut.
For details, see page 84.
[Notes]
• Cine EI shooting mode has the following limitations.
• Functions that cannot be adjusted automatically
(tracking)
– White balance
– Gain
– Shutter
• Functions that cannot be configured
– ISO sensitivity/gain (set to base ISO sensitivity
(fixed))
– Paint/Look menu settings (excluding Base
Look)
– Scene File (disabled)
• The following functions are available in Cine EI
shooting mode only (page 84).
• Exposure Index
• Monitor LUT
• When recording in Cine EI, it is recommended that
you keep the Exposure Index setting constant. If
you change the Exposure Index setting, brightness
correction may be very difficult to achieve in post-
production, which may make it impossible to
reproduce the state when the image was originally
shot.
Custom
When the shooting mode is set to Custom,
you can select the video standard.
You can set the video standard using Base
Setting >Target Display (page 43) in the
Project menu of the full menu.
• SDR(BT.709): Shooting according to HD
broadcast standard
• HDR(HLG): Shooting according to next
generation 4K broadcast standard
For details, see page 86.
System Frequency
Set the system frequency using Frequency/
Scan (page 28) on the Project status screen.
The unit may reboot automatically after
switching, depending on the selected value.
[Tip]
You can also set the system frequency using Rec Format
>Frequency (page 43) in the Project menu of the full
menu.
[Note]
You cannot switch the system frequency during
recording or playback.
Imager Scan Mode
You can set the effective picture size and
resolution of the image sensor.
Set the scan mode using Imager Scan
(page 28) on the Project status screen.
• FF 8.6K 16:9, FF 8.6K 17:9, FFc 6K 16:9, FFc 6K
17:9: Use for full size.
• S35 5.8K 16:9, S35 5.8K 17:9, S35c 4K 17:9:
Use for Super 35mm size.
[Tip]
You can also set the scan mode using Rec Format
>Imager Scan Mode (page 43) in the Project menu of
the full menu.
[Note]
You cannot switch the imager scan mode during
recording or playback.
