Selection Of The Gain, Color Temperature, And White Balance Memory - Sony F23 Operation Manual

If CC:E is selected, the correction value of the ND filter
that is selected on the ND side is halved.
Example: In a case where ND:3 and CC:E are selected, the
ND value is equivalent to 1/32ND.
The electrical gain 5600K selection has no effect on the
display at 4 .

At 1 on the first line, the gain value is selected from
among the following: –6 dB, –3 dB, 0 dB, 3 dB, 6 dB, 9
dB, and 12 dB. The corresponding ISO sensitivity is
displayed in parentheses. For 2 on the first line, you can
select either dynamic range or latitude for the indication
(see "Indications of the ISO sensitivity and dynamic
range" mentioned later).
On the second line, the color temperature is selected from
TUNGSTEN or DAYLIGHT.
With DAYLIGHT, electrical gain of 5600K is ON.
At shipment, the gain is set to 0 dB, and the color
temperature is set to TUNGSTEN.
The white balance adjustment value is fixed at the preset
value (3200K).

Indications of the ISO sensitivity and
dynamic range
The ISO sensitivity value displayed on the Gain setting
page is defined as "the value with which the video input
becomes 20% when shooting a gray-scale chart of 18%
reflection rate."
Note that the video output value with respect to this input
will vary depending on the selected gamma.
Either dynamic range or latitude can be selected for the
indication.
The value displayed with % as a dynamic range shows the
limit on the high-luminance side in percentage (100%=
input level) in a case where the white of the gray scale
provides 100% (700 mV) output with the ITU-R709
gamma (standard gamma).
The value displayed with E as a latitude shows the latitude
on the high-luminance side by an f-stop value, using a
gray-scale chart of 18% reflection rate as the key light.
The latitude at the low-luminance side can be reproduced
up to approx. –6.5 stop at 0 dB.
Note
As the dynamic range indication shows a value for the
input video, the dynamic range of the output video is
limited by the output settings as follows:
• If a gamma other than S-LOG is selected
The upper limit is clipped according to the output video
limitation specified by the gamma setting.
When you select a curve as Hyper Gamma No. 4, which
compresses 460% input to 109%, the output video is fed
within the range up to 460% of input video even if 800%
is displayed on the subdisplay as the dynamic range as the
output video is limited to 109%.
Using CvpFileEditor V4.0, you can change the dynamic
range of Hyper Gamma and create a user gamma curve
having no dynamic range limitation.
