E2. Gamma Categories
The PXW-FS7 Gammas are split in to 3 categories: STD/
HG/S-Log (MENU: Paint – Gamma – Gamma Category).
E2.1 STD
Standard Gamma. The gamma curves available under
this category are all variations on standard television
gamma. These curves will all provide realistic and true to
life contrast when viewed on a conventional TV or monitor.
However to comply with current television standards these
curves have a limited dynamic range. This means that the
scene brightness range that can be captured is restricted
to maintain compatibility with normal TV displays. STG
gamma curve STD5-R709 is the standard gamma for HD
TV production.
