5.9 Reverse scan

When the camera is used at a rotated angle use the reverse scan feature to digitally rotate the
camera's image to compensate. Go to the INSTALL > REVERSE SCAN menu to switch reverse
scan on or off and to select the scan mode (horizontal, vertical or both rotations).

5.10 Freeze frame

Go to the INSTALL > FREEZE FRAME menu to turn this function on or off. When turned on, the
freeze frame function freezes the current video frame so that video functions can be set up off
line. The following functions are NOT available in freeze frame mode:
– Iris settings
– Color temperature
– Master and variable gain
– Skin detail selection
– V-shift and clean scan

Note Note
Freeze frame is only available in 1080i50/59.94 and 720p50/59.94 video modes.

5.11 Black stretch

The black stretch function changes the level of detail in the shadow areas of the picture
without effecting the rest of the picture. Set the Black stretch switch at the front left side of
the camera to the On position to switch on the black stretch function. Go to the
VIDEO > BLACK > BLACKSTRETCH item to adjust the black stretch level from 0 to 99.
When black stretch is switched on the Non-standard indicator in the viewfinder lights.

5.12 Auto skin detail

Use skin detail to change the detail level in a selected color range. Decreasing the detail level
of a person's skin color softens only the skin tones. But not only skin colors can be selected,
for example, decrease the detail level of a soccer field to accentuate the soccer players or
increase the skin detail level to accentuate a rough surface.
Carry out the Auto skin detail procedure as follows:
1. In the VIDEO > SKIN > SKIN menu, select the memory position skin 1 or skin 2 (not 1+2).
2. Place the cursor in front of the VIDEO > SKIN > AUTO SKIN item.
