Still: Standard gamma curve for still images Cine1: Softens the contrast in dark parts and emphasizes gradation in bright parts to produce a relaxed color movie. (equivalent to HG4609G33) Cine2: Similar to [Cine1] but optimized for editing with up to 100% video signal. (equivalent to HG4600G30) ITU709: Gamma curve that corresponds to ITU709. ITU709(800%): Gamma curve for confirming scenes on the assumption of shooting using [SLog2]. S-Log2: Gamma curve for [S-Log2]. This setting is based on the assumption that the picture will be processed after shooting. Black Gamma Corrects gamma in low intensity areas. Range: Selects the correcting range. (Wide / Middle / Narrow) Level: Sets the correcting level. (-7 (maximum black compression) to +7 (maximum black stretch)) Knee Sets knee point and slope for video signal compression to prevent over-exposure by limiting signals in high intensity areas of the subject to the dynamic range of your camera. When selecting [Still], [Cine1], [Cine2], [ITU709(800%)], [S-Log2] in [Gamma], [Knee] is set to [Off] if [Mode] is set to [Auto]. To use functions in [Knee], set [Mode] to [Manual]. Mode: Selects auto/manual settings. Auto: The knee point and slope are set automatically. Manual: The knee point and slope are set manually. Auto Set: Settings when [Auto] is selected for [Mode]. Max Point: Sets the maximum point of the knee point. (90% to 100%) Sensitivity: Sets the sensitivity. (High/Mid/Low) Manual Set: Settings when [Manual] is selected for [Mode]. Point: Sets the knee point. (75% to 105%) Slope: Sets the knee slope. (-5 (gentle) to +5 (steep)) Color Mode Sets type and level of colors. Movie: Suitable colors when [Gamma] is set to [Movie]. Still: Suitable colors when [Gamma] is set to [Still]. Cinema: Suitable colors when [Gamma] is set to [Cine1]. Pro: Similar color tones to the standard image quality of Sony professional cameras (when combined with ITU709 gamma)
