Adjusting The White Shading - Panasonic HDC27H Operating Instructions Manual

Adjusting the white shading

This unit comes with a function for storing white
shading adjustment values. Up to eight of these
values can be stored in the internal memory.
Alternatively, they can be stored on an SD memory
card.
Using this data, it is possible to quickly reproduce the
appropriate white shading adjustment even after
switching lenses.
<Notes>
O The method below can be used for the white
shading adjustments with most lenses. However,
with some very special lenses, a different
adjustment method may be necessary.
O Even when the white shading has been adjusted,
tinting may occur in the vertical direction near the
lens aperture open position. This is a phenomenon
which is inherent to lenses and optical systems and
is not indicative of malfunctioning.
