3-11-1 Using the Standard Gamma

Standard Gamma is for video and intended to be used
mainly for creating broadcast contents. It is used in
combination with the Knee function that adjusts the
dynamic range of high-luminance areas.
When STANDARD is selected on the first line of TABLE
of the <GAMMA> page, you can select from among the
following standard gamma curves:
Gamma table No. Gamma curve
1 equivalent to SD ENG camcorder
2 equivalent to 4.5-times gain
3 equivalent to 3.5-times gain
4 equivalent to SMPTE-240M
5 equivalent to ITU-R709
6 equivalent to 5.0-times gain
It is recommended to use the No. 5 (ITU-R709) curve in
normal use.
As ITU-R709 provides 4.5-times gain around the black,
select the No. 6 (×5) curve when you need higher contrast
around the black.
