Chapter 4 Shooting - Adjusting image quality RB gain control function This function makes settings to add or reduce intensity of red and blue colors according to the position of the switch. The function works when the switch is at the position or when automatic white balance is active. It does not work when auto tracking white balance is activated. rr General settings Use the camera with the factory settings. rr Advanced settings Configure the settings in the main menu → [SCENE FILE] → [RB GAIN CONTROL SETTING]. ffWhen the switch is at position [R GAIN AWB PRE]: Makes settings to add or reduce intensity of red color. [B GAIN AWB PRE]: Makes settings to add or reduce intensity of blue color. ffWhen the switch is at position [R GAIN AWB A]: Makes settings to add or reduce intensity of red color.

Chroma setting function This function sets color saturation and phase. It applies effects on whole images. It cannot be set to individual color hue. rr General settings [CHROMA LEVEL]: Sets the chroma level of the PR signal and PB signal. When the vector scope is used, the distance from the center (no color) increases in the whole image. [CHROMA PHASE]: Finely adjusts the chroma phase of the PR signal and PB signal. When the vector scope is used, the whole image rotates clockwise or counter-clockwise. rr Advanced settings No setting items are provided. Matrix function This function sets the image color representation by selecting the matrix table. If the settings are changed, the representation of all the colors in the image will also be changed.

Chapter 4 Shooting — Adjusting image quality
RB gain control function
This function makes settings to add or reduce intensity of red and blue colors according to the position of the <WHITE BAL> switch.
The function works when the switch is at the <PRST> position or when automatic white balance is active. It does not work when auto tracking white
balance is activated.

When setting the <WHITE BAL> switch to the <B> position and automatic white balance is performed
[AWB B GAIN OFFSET]:
Sets whether to keep the values set for [R GAIN AWB B] and [B GAIN AWB B] or reset them.
Chroma setting function
This function sets color saturation and phase. It applies effects on whole images. It cannot be set to individual color hue.

General settings
[CHROMA LEVEL]:
Sets the chroma level of the P

signal and P
B
signal. When the vector scope is used, the distance from the center (no color)
increases in the whole image.
[CHROMA PHASE]:
Finely adjusts the chroma phase of the P
R
signal and P

signal. When the vector scope is used, the whole image rotates clockwise
or counter-clockwise.

It performs fine adjustment relatively on the matrix table selected in [MATRIX].
Since the fine adjustment is performed relatively, if the matrix table selected in [MATRIX] differs, the color representation may differ even when the same
value is set. (Fig. 1)
Example) When adjusting [MATRIX R-G] to the
+
side, and [MATRIX B-G] to the
−
side (Fig. 2)
