High Dynamic Range (HDR) Recording * On the PXW-FS5, this function is supported using Ver. 4.0 or later (see page 5). Reproduction of brightness over a wider range than previously available is now supported by applying an HDR-compatible picture profile. The camcorder supports Hybrid Log-Gamma (HLG), with four selectable settings. The [HLG] setting is equivalent to ITU-R BT.2100. The [HLG1], [HLG2], and [HLG3] settings enable images to be reproduced with a wider dynamic range without images that appear unnatural, as can arise in existing camera image reproduction. Shooting using HDR-compatible picture profile 1 Select (CAMERA/PAINT) menu t [PICTURE PROFILE] t [PP10].

[GAMMA] items (Default setting in bold) Item Description [HLG] Setting equivalent to ITU-R BT.2100. [HLG1] Setting that provides greater noise suppression than [HLG2]. However, the dynamic range that can be shot is narrower. [HLG2] Setting with balance between dynamic range and noise suppression. [HLG3] Setting that provides wider dynamic range than [HLG2]. However, the noise level rises. [HLG1], [HLG2], and [HLG3] all use the same gamma curve characteristic. Only the dynamic range and noise suppression characteristics differ. b Notes • For XAVC recording When recording HDR video in XAVC format on the camcorder, the color space, gamma, and other metadata required for HDR playback and Continued , 57
