Using the Custom Preset
You can define preset levels for 23 recording specifications used when recording on tape (17 when
recording still images on the memory card). Up to 6 custom presets can be stored on the camcorder, and
up to 20 can be stored on the memory card. You can copy the camcorder’s custom presets to the
memory card. Also, while you are recording on the tape and simultaneously record a still image on the
memory card, the current recording specifications can be saved as a custom preset on the card. Later
you can load that custom preset from the memory card to the camcorder.
The recording specifications that can be saved in a custom preset:
Gamma curve*, knee, black stretch/press, master pedestal*, setup level*, sharpness, horizontal detail
frequency, horizontal/vertical detail balance, coring, NR1*, NR2*, color matrix*, color gain, color phase, R
gain, G gain, B gain, R-G matrix, R-B matrix, G-R matrix, G-B matrix, B-R matrix and B-G matrix.
* Available only when recording on the tape.
