Set to - for a clearer image. Noise increases slightly. Set to + to reduce noise. -7...0...+7 Adjusts the chroma level. -7...0...+7 Adjusts the chroma level. -7...0...+7 Make fine adjustments to the color temperature (after white balance Ach adjustment). -7...0...+7 Make fine adjustments to the color temperature (after white balance Bch adjustment). -7...0...+7 Adjusts the master pedestal (black level of the image) as the basis for images. -15...0...+15 Sets the desired AUTO IRIS level. -6...0...+6 Selects the DRS (Dynamic Range Stretcher) function. It enables the dynamic range to be expanded by compressing the level of the video signals in the highbrightness areas where overexposure results during normal shooting. OFF, 1, 2, 3 • The higher the number of the setting, the higher the compression level of the high-brightness areas. • The higher the number of the setting, the greater the interference in darker areas. Selects the gamma curves. HD NORM: This gamma setting is suitable for HD shooting. LOW: Makes a mellow image using the gamma curve that has a gentle incline in low-brightness curve. The contrast sharpens. SD NORM: This is the normal video setting carried over from the DVX100 series. HIGH:  Expands the tone of dark parts and makes a brighter image using the gamma curve that has a sharp incline in low-brightness curve. The contrast softens. B.PRESS: Makes the contrast sharper than LOW. CINE-LIKE D: Uses a gamma curve designed to create cinema-like images. CINE-LIKE V: Uses a gamma curve designed to create cinema-like images with emphasized contrast. • When you select CINE-LIKE gamma, we recommend setting the lens aperture lower than normal image level (approximately 1/2) for optimal results. To avoid overexposure, select the compression level (knee point) of the high intensity video signals received through the image pickup device. AUTO: Sets the level automatically according to the received signals. LOW: Low setting (Compression starts at approx. 80%) MID: Medium setting (Compression starts at approx. 90%) HIGH: High setting (Compression starts at approx. 100%) • Not available when a DRS value is set, or when GAMMA is set to CINE-LIKE. indicates the factory setting. 52
