1 Chapter7MenuOperations Setup menu list SCENE FILE screen ItemSettingNotes LOAD/SAVE/INITLoads, saves and initializes settings of the scene file assigned to the current scene dial position (one F1 – F6 scene file). LOAD: Loads data stored in camera memory. SAVE: Saves current values in camera memory. INITIAL: Returns settings to their factory defaults. • A change in scene files affects only the scene file at the current scene dial position. • Not available when compiling to a clip in one-clip recording mode. VFREnables or disables variable frame rate (VFR) mode at 720P. ON: VFR operation OFF: VFR off • Available only in 720P system mode. (This message does not appear in modes other than 720P.) • This setting cannot be made when REC SIGNAL is 1394. FRAME RATEAdjusts the frame rate and exposure time at 720P when VFR is on. (When SYSTEM MODE is set to 720-59.94P) 12, 15, 18, 20, 21, 22, 24, 25, 26, 27, 28, 30, 32, 34, 36, 40, 44, 48, 54, 60 FRAME (When SYSTEM MODE is set to 720-50P) 12, 15, 18, 20, 21, 22, 23, 24, 25, 26, 27, 28, 30, 32, 34, 37, 42, 45, 48, 50 FRAME • Available only in 720P system mode and when VFR is set to ON. (This message does not appear in modes other than 720P.) • This setting cannot be made when REC SIGNAL is 1394. • A change to 24 fps may cause the screen to flicker momentarily. (SYNCHRO SCAN)Displays synchro scan shutter speeds to enable the operator to synchronize the camera to computer monitors. • This function only displays the shutter speeds. Use the SYNCHRO SCAN switch to set a shutter speed. • Set values (displayed values) are assigned to the current scene file and manipulated using the LOAD, SAVE and INIT functions. For details, refer to [Placing the Camera-recorder in SYNCHRO SCAN Mode] (page 59). 1/60.0 • Displayed in blue when not set to synchro scan mode and when the SYNCHRO SCAN switch settings are not available. • When SYSTEM MODE is set to 1080- 50i, 720-50i or 576-50i, performing the INITIAL option of the scene files will set the default value to 1/50.0. DETAIL LEVELAdjusts the level of image outline correction (in horizontal and vertical directions). –7 ... 0 *1... +7 V DETAIL LEVELAdjusts the level of correction in vertical direction. –7 ... 0 *1 ... +7 DETAIL CORINGAdjusts the level of noise reduction of the detail signal. –7 ... +5 *1 ... +7 • Adjust towards – for a clearer image.

A. IRIS LEVELSets the AUTO IRIS target value. –10 ... 0 *1 ... +10 DRS EFFECTSets the compression level in high-brightness areas of the DRS (dynamic range stretcher) function. This function compresses the video signal level to extend the dynamic range making it possible to correctly render highlight areas without overexposure and loss of detail that would otherwise occur. 1, 2, 3 *1 • Higher numbers mean a higher compression level of high-brightness areas and more noise in dark areas. • Not available at 1080/30P or 1080/24P (1080/25P) mode. GAMMASelects the gamma curve. HD NORM *1: Gamma setting for HD recording. LOW: Applies a gently rising gamma curve to low- brightness areas for a balanced look. SD NORM: Normal video setting inherited from the DVX100 series. HIGH: Applies a steep gamma curve to low brightness areas to expand the tonality of dark areas for video with greater brightness. Contrast softens as a result. B.PRESS: Produces sharper contrast than LOW. CINE-LIKE D: Applies a gamma curve to produce video with a cine-like feel. CINE-LIKE V: Applies a gamma curve to produce high-contrast video with a cine-like feel. • A lens aperture set lower than normal video level (approx. 1/2) is recommended when using cine-like gamma to enjoy the full benefit of the function. • A change in settings during DRS operation will not change video quality. KNEESets the compression level (knee point) of the high brightness video signals received through the MOS sensor to avoid overexposure. HIGH: High setting (compression starts at approx. 100 %) MID: Medium setting (compression starts at approx. 90 %) LOW *1: Low setting (compression starts at approx. 80 %) • A change in settings during DRS operation will not change video quality. MATRIXSelects the MATRIX table to reproduce color during shooting. NORM1 *1: Ensures proper color rendition when shooting out in the open or under halogen lighting. NORM2: Produces more vivid colors than NORM1. FLUO: Ensures proper color rendition when shooting indoors under fluorescent lighting. CINE-LIKE: Produces a tone similar to movie film. . SKIN TONE DTLTurns the skin tone detail on or off. When on, reduces detail to hide any skin blemishes. ON, OFF *1 *1 The factory default when the SCENE FILE dial is set to F1. ____ indicates the factory setting
