DETAIL LEVEL For adjusting the detail amount.
(Camera) –7 --- 0 --- +7
V DETAIL For adjusting the strength of the outline
(Camera) compensation in the vertical direction of the
images.
–7 --- 0 --- +7
DTL CORING For adjusting the level at which the noise in
(Camera) the detail signals is to be eliminated.
–7 --- 0 --- +7
When this is adjusted in the "–" direction,
clearer images are produced but the noise
increases slightly.
When it is adjusted in the "+" direction, the
noise decreases.
CHROMA LEVEL For adjusting the chroma level.
(Camera) –7 --- 0 --- +7
CHROMA For finely adjusting the chroma phase.
PHASE (Camera) –7 --- 0 --- +7
COLOUR TEMP For finely adjusting the colour temperature
(Camera) (for performing fine adjustments after the
white balance has been adjusted).
–7 --- 0 --- +7
MASTER PED For adjusting the black master pedestal
(Camera) which serves as the video reference.
–15 --- 0 --- +15
A. IRIS LEVEL For setting the auto iris target value.
(Camera) –4 --- 0 --- +4
The underlining indicates the factory setting.

GAMMA For selecting the gamma curve.
(Camera) LOW:
Using a gamma curve with a moderate
gradient for the low-luminance areas, the
images are given a calm, composed look.
A sharp touch is conveyed by the contrast.
NORM:
Standard images are produced.
HIGH:
Using a gamma curve with a sharp
gradient for the low-luminance areas, the
gradations of the dark areas are
extended to make them appear brighter.
A soft touch is conveyed by the contrast.
B.PRESS:
Images giving the sense of a sharper contrast
than at the LOW setting are produced.
CINE-LIKE:
The gamma curve which gives the
images a cinema-like finish is used.
Images with less noise than at the
CINE_LIKE_D setting are produced.
CINE-LIKE_D:
The dynamic range is higher than at the
CINELIKE setting.
CINE-LIKE_V:
This uses the gamma curve for finishing
the images into movie-like images where
priority is given to contrast.
In order to make full use of the CINE-
LIKE gamma characteristics, it is
recommended that the lens iris be set
lower (by approx. 1/2) than the regular
video level.
KNEE For setting the level (knee point) at which
(Camera) the high-brightness video signals sensed by
the CCD are to be compressed in order to
minimize colour saturation in the highlights
of the image.
AUTO: The knee point is set automatically in
accordance with the signals sensed.
LOW: The knee point is set on the low side
(with
around 80%).
MID: The knee point is set at an interim value
(with compression starting from around
90%).
HIGH: The knee point is set on the high side
(with compression starting from around
100%).
MATRIX For selecting
(Camera) expressing the colours during shooting.
NORM1: Colors
outdoors or under light sources
using
expressed.
NORM2: More vivid colors are expressed
than with the NORM1 setting.
FLUO: Colours suited to shooting
indoors under fluorescent light
sources are expressed.
CINE-LIKE: Colours suited to cinema-like
shooting are expressed.
