Optical Image Stabilizer (OIS) Panasonic's advanced OIS dramatically reduces the blurring caused by hand-held camera work. Optical processing with an automatic correction function helps assure consistently clear, sharp images. Dynamic Range Stretch (DRS) In scenes with mixed contrast, such as when panning from indoors to outdoors, the DRS function automatically suppresses blocked shadows and blown highlights. A gamma curve and knee slope are estimated to match the contrast of each pixel, and applied in real time. When dark, bright, and intermediate shades are all contained in the same scene, this produces excellent gradation for each shade and minimizes blocked shadows and blown highlights. The images that result are enhanced by a visually wide dynamic range. Blocked shadows are suppressed. Image with DRS OFF Blown highlights are suppressed. Image with DRS ON 7-Mode Gamma for Richer Gradation Drawing on technologies developed for the VariCam, Panasonic has equipped the AG-HMC150 with advanced gamma functions that address eight different shooting scenarios and enhance your creative abilities. This includes the cinelike gamma, which produces the characteristic warm tone of film recordings. VIDEO GAMMA CINE-LIKE GAMMA AG-HMC150 Gamma Modes HD NORM: Suitable for HD recording LOW: Works to flatten out a high contrast scene SD NORM: Normal setting for SD (this was available in the DVX100 series) HIGH: Provides more contrast and color gradation B.PRESS: Provides more contrast and blacks in low contrast scenes CINE-LIKE-D: The Cine-Like mode shifted to prioritize dynamic range CINE-LIKE-V: The Cine-Like mode shifted to prioritize contrast Advanced Image Adjustments Built-In • Matrix setting including a Cinelike mode • Adjustable H detail level, V detail level, detail coring and skin detail • Adjustable chroma level, chroma phase, color temp and master pedestal • Knee point settings: Auto, Low, Mid and High • User files (with sets of camera settings) can be transferred to an SD Memory Card and shared with other cameras Shown above is a sample of operation styles.
