The camera offers a number of preset picture settings (combinations of color space, gamma curve and color
matrix). For details, refer to
[Off]: Select this setting when you want to set a different combination of custom picture settings with
the individual [/ Custom Picture] > [Main Settings] settings described below.
[Main Settings] > [Gamma]
The gamma curve changes the overall look of the image. (Default: [Wide DR])
[Canon Log 2]: Logarithmic gamma curve that obtains an even wider dynamic range than with the [Canon Log]
option. Requires image processing in post-production.
[Canon Log]*: Logarithmic gamma curve that obtains an impressive dynamic range. Requires image
processing in post-production.
[Wide DR]*: Gamma curve with a very wide dynamic range. Optimized for playback on TV monitors.
[EOS Standard]*: This gamma curve approximates the look of an EOS digital SLR camera when the picture style
is set to [Standard] P. Produces higher contrast than with the [Normal 1 (Standard)] setting.
[Normal 1 (Standard)]*: Standard picture for playback on TV monitors.
[Normal 2 (x4.0)]*: Setting suitable for playback on TV monitors. Produces brighter highlights (bright areas of the
image) than with the [Normal 1 (Standard)] setting.
[Normal 3 (BT.709)]*: Setting suitable for playback on TV monitors. Produces a more faithful black gradation in
the shadows (dark areas of the image) than with the [Normal 2 (x4.0)] setting.
[Normal 4 (x5.0)]*: Setting suitable for playback on TV monitors. Produces even better black gradation in the
shadows (dark areas of the image) than with the [Normal 3 (BT.709)] setting.
* Only when [3 Recording/Media Setup] > [REC OUT 4K RAW Mode] is set to a setting other than [4K RAW].

Normal 2/3/4
[Main Settings] > [Color Space]
Determines the color space of the image. (Default: [BT.709 Gamut])
[Cinema Gamut]: Color space developed by Canon based on the specific characteristics of the camera's
imaging sensor. It covers a wider color gamut than that of BT.2020. Use this setting with
workflows that require ACES color space.
[BT. 2020 Gamut]: Color space that meets ITU-R BT.2020 standards, which defines parameters for ultra-high-
definition television (4K/8K).
[DCI-P3 Gamut]: Color space that meets the guidelines established by DCI (Digital Cinema Initiatives).
[BT. 709 Gamut]: Standard color space that is compatible with sRGB specifications.
