BLACK Changes the gain in dark areas. Change this depending on the video signal being shot.
NORMAL
STRETCH
COMPRESS
STRETCH LEVEL The amount of stretching increases from LEVEL1→LEVEL2→LEVEL3→LEVEL4→LEVEL5.
[Settings: LEVEL1, LEVEL2, LEVEL3, LEVEL4, LEVEL5]
COMPRESS LEVEL The amount of compression increases from LEVEL1→LEVEL2→LEVEL3→LEVEL4→LEVEL5.
[Settings: LEVEL1, LEVEL2, LEVEL3, LEVEL4, LEVEL5]
WHITE CLIP Sets the white clipping point on input video signals with a high luminance level.

KNEE Sets whether to run the "knee" function, which compresses video signals over a certain level to render the tonality
in the highlight areas, automatically or manually. Set "MANUAL" when you want to check the bright areas, and adjust
the knee point manually.
AUTO
MANUAL
*1
LEVEL Sets the start point for knee compression (knee point).
Increase the number : Raises the knee point level.
Decrease the number : Lowers the knee point level.
[Settings: 80%, 85%, 90%, 95%, 100%]
MEMO
When the "KNEE" item is set to "AUTO", "-----" is displayed and this cannot be selected.
REVERSE PICTURE When the lens image is inverted and flipped, set "ROTATE" to record properly.
OFF
ROTATE
DNR Selects whether or not to set the noise reduction.
The DNR (Digital Noise Reduction) function is applied to the tape recording signal, HD component output signal, and
the IEEE1394 output signal in CAMERA mode.
When camcorder's picture is noisy, because of low light conditions, you can improve picture's S/N by turning DNR
on.
OFF
ON
MEMO
• DNR is not applied in VTR mode or during playback.
• DNR is not applied to composite output signals in CAMERA mode.
• When the DNR is set to ON, the camcorder's S/N ratio becomes better but the "blurring of moving objects" will
• When 1080I CAMERA is set to ON, DNR is set to OFF.

Function/Setting (bold characters indicate initial settings)
: Normal status
: Enhances the dark areas of the video so the contrast between light and dark is more visible by
stretching the signal only in the dark areas.
Set elongation level with STRETCH LEVEL below.
: If the video that was shot is bright overall and lacking in contrast, the gain in the dark areas is com-
pressed, which adds contrast.
Set compression level with COMPRESS LEVEL below.
: The white clipping point is set at a luminance level of 108%.
: The white clipping point is set at a luminance level of 100%. If the screen is too white at
108%, set it to 100%.
: Adjusts the knee point automatically, according to the luminance level.
: You can change the luminance level in the "LEVEL" item.
: No inversion.
: Invert lens image.
: Noise reduction is not performed.
: Sets noise reduction.
