Highlight Quality
Real-time Lens Aberration Correction
( RLAC ): Lens chromatic aberration of magni fication is reduced by digital processing with supporting lenses.Knee saturation and auto-knee: The auto knee provides a wide dynamic range by dynamically compressing the video level above 100%. Knee saturation restores color saturation to
HDR (High Dynamic Range):
HDR reproduces the high contrast picture which a conventional TV camera could not provide in a highlight scene by combination with a HDR monitor.
Black Gamma:
Black Gamma function can control Initial Gamma gain more finely than conventional Black Stretch. Independent Initial Gamma controls are provided for the Red, Green and Blue channels providing a fine granularity control over dark color.
12-Vector and Linear Matrix masking:
The 12-vector and linear matrix provide the user a wide latitude in subject image color control. The 6 -axis linear matrix provides overall color control and the 12 -vector color corrector provides independent control of the hue and saturation for each of the three primary and the three secondary colors.
Preset Masking:
Color matrix can be changed to several broadcast camera standards.
Skin tone masking:
Skin tone masking provides “fine” “Painting” (hue and saturation) of Skin tones without affecting other colors in the scene.
Auto Chroma:
Auto Ch roma automatically reduces over-standard colors in the image caused by extremely bright and colorful objects such as emergency vehicle lights or stage lighting L.E.D’s.
New 3ch skin tone detail:
New Skin tone Detail functions allow a flesh-color based softening of the image to achieve a much more youthful look for on-camera personalities. Three individual channels exist as well as a function to automatically detect the hue, saturation and luminance of the Skin tone to be affected. Furthermore, the Skin tone Detail level can be adjusted to follow the lens' zoom to avoid 'rubber faces' in wide angle shots while using the function.
Gray Scale Automatic Setup:
This “through the lens” automatic setup is uses a standard gray scale chart to automatically setup gain, gamma, black and flare thus saving the video operator time and effort.
Automatic White Shading:
Automatic white shading corrects white vertical and horizontal shading at the push of a button. This function provides separate memory of lens’ modulation sha ding characteristics to optimize the X1 and X2 lens extender positions.

Note MOS image sensor characteristic phenomena
The following types of phenomena are innate characteristics of a MOS image sensor and are not malfunctions. Be aware of these when using a MOS camera for broadcast or other demanding applications.
Phenomena by shooting condition With very bright flash light, picture has ver y bright portion and very dark portion in one frame like partial exposure. At shooting fast object, the object image might be to wobble. Dead pixel If cosmic rays go through an image sensor, a pixel may have damage, and then a dead pixel will appear on a screen. In high temperature or high gain, it is easier to see dead pixels than in normal conditions.
Note Damage by laser
Laser light may do damage to image sensor. When you use laser light, be careful not to irradiate it on the image sensor surface. The image sensor breakage by laser light is out of warranty.

4. Loosen the FB ring setscrew. 5. By hand or motor, set the zoom ring to the telephoto position. 6. Observe the flange back chart image and turn the distance ring to adjust the focus. 7. Set the zoom ring to the wide angle position. 8. Turn the FB ring and adjust the focus. Use care not to turn the distance ring. 9. Repeat this process until focus is obtained at both telephoto and wide angle settings. 10. Securely tighten the FB ring setscrew. Notes
Also, see the lens operating instructions.
16
White shading adjustment White shading adjustment White shading adjustment is recommended after replacing the lens. The adjustment relates to the camera vertical coloration. If the lens includes an extender, the shading can be optimized for both extender on and off modes. (Vertical coloration refers to an effect whe reby the image of an overall white sheet of paper tends toward green at the top and magenta at the bottom, or vice versa.) Adjustment 1. Install a lens on the camera.
Be sure to connect the lens cable.
2. Turn the electronic shutter off and set the gain to L (0 dB). 3. Shoot a whole white object, like cloth or wall if possible use chart viewer of Esser or Porta Pattern,
without shading.
