Picture Profile
Up to six different picture-quality settings, including
gamma and colour settings, can be registered in the
memory as picture profiles. This labour-saving function
allows operators to easily recall customised picture-
quality settings for various shooting conditions. It is also
useful for matching footage shot at different times or for
multi-camera setups.
The picture-profile functions of the HVR-Z7E and
HVR-S270E include enhanced versions from the HVR-Z1E
or HVR-V1E, plus a selection of new functions.
Colour Depth
Generally, the brightness of a video image increases as
the colour level becomes more vivid. In these new
camcorders, the brightness and colour level are processed
independently so that more flexible tone – for instance, a
dark image with a vivid colour – is realised by 3D-LUT colour
processing.
Note: 3D-LUT = three-dimensional look-up table
Colour Correction
The Colour Correction function of the HVR-Z1E has been
improved in the HVR-Z7E and HVR-S270E camcorders.
Colour Correction provides two functions for creative
shooting. The Colour Extraction function can retain up to
two desired colours of monitored pictures in the screen,
while making all other colours black and white. The
advanced function allows users to select the colour simply
by pressing a button to memorise the centre colour of the
captured image.

HVR-Z7E and HVR-S270E Common Features
The Colour Revision function can change the hue of only
the colour designated by the Colour Extraction function.
This function is good not only for creating impressive
images, but also for blue- or green-screen shooting in
order to normalise uneven colour.
The colour data is stored in each Picture Profile so that
users can select the most suitable colour setting for each
shooting situation.

WB Shift
The WB (White Balance) Shift function allows users to
create an impressive colour or to adjust the colour
temperature of the camcorder.
There are two WB Shift options to choose from:
•LB-CC type: adjusting the LB axis (colour temperature)
and CC filter effect
•R-B level type: adjusting the red and blue levels
Skintone Detail
This function allows users to change the sharpness of an
object with a specific colour and is particularly good for
making skin tones look more natural. The target colour can
be specified by controlling the Phase/Range/Saturation/Y
Level/Y Range parameters or by pressing a button to
specify the colour of an object with a colour picker.
If the sharpness of the background object is decreased,
the blur looks more natural.
