General: Features of Camera unit
General
Multi-format
Various image formats are realized by switching the 2.2
Megapixel 2/3 inch 3 CCD between the interlace drive and
the progressive drive.
Chromatic Aberration Compensation function
The unit is equipped with a function to correct the
magnification ratio chromatic aberration of lenses caused by
the fact that the refractive index in lenses varies with the
wavelength of light (hereinafter referred to as chromatic
aberration). By using this function, chromatic aberration
around the lens can be corrected and high definition images
can be obtained. However, a lens supporting chromatic
aberration compensation is must be used. (Refer to
page 105)
Scan Reverse function
The Scan Reverse function, as standard configuration,
cancels the image inversion that occurs when a lens adapter
from Canon or Angenieux is used, and it can be switched
through the menu settings. (Refer to page 171)
Film-REC Gamma function
To facilitate acquisition of pictures with a film-like tone, the
unit is equipped with a film-like gamma function of the type
developed for the Varicam (AJ-HDC27 series). (Refer to
page 184)
2-disk 4-type configuration optical filters
The unit is equipped with CC filters for 3200 K, 4300 K,
5600 K, and 1/2 ND. The 5600 K CC filter setting, often
selected for shooting outdoors, and the 1/2 ND setting to
allow finer adjustments to the lens aperture are provided as
standard. (Refer to page 19)
14-bit A/D conversion digital signal processing
Analog video signals are processed into digital data by a 14-
bit A/D converter with sampling frequencies of 74 MHz. It is
possible to reproduce images that are more finely detailed.
DRS (Dynamic Range Stretcher) function
With this function, the dynamic range of high brightness
areas that may be skipped with white blanks in an ordinary
recording method can be expanded by compressing images
and maintaining the contrast. (Refer to page 59)
Lens file function
The unit has 64 lens files.
By using an SD memory card, 64 lens files can be stored.
(Refer to page 100)
Focus assist function
The unit will display a marker to help with focusing when
shooting videos. This function provides a visual cue for
focusing. (Refer to page 59)
Data management function
Within the unit, one user data file and 16 sets of scene file
data can be saved.
By using an SD memory card as the setup card, up to 8 sets
of setup data can be stored. (Refer to page 91)
Color bar
The unit employs the SMPTE color bar, Split color bar for
SNG (Satellite News Gathering) as well as the conventional
color bar, which is useful for adjusting the color monitor.
(Refer to page 193)
VFR
This unit has a VFR function which allows overcrank and
undercrank shooting. (Refer to page 38)
Monitor Gamma
When the gamma setting is set to “FILM-REC”, images with
FILM-REC gamma characteristics (Nega look images) are
output to the HD SDI A · B outputs, the monitor, the
viewfinder, the remote control unit and the LCD, and
recorded to the P2 card.
It is possible to convert the monitor output image, viewfinder
output image, remote control output image, and LCD output
image, out of different output images, to a higher contrast
image (POSI LOOK image) by operating this function.
P-10LOG
It is possible to select the image signal data format suitable
for workflow of film production DI (DIGITAL
INTERMEDIATE). Color rendering properties are enhanced
by the 2D-CMS (2 dimensional color management system).
It is valid against the output signals of the Dual Link (RGB
4:4:4).
But, it will not be reflected to a recording onto the P2 card.
Cinematographer settings
Only the menu items that are used often for a film production
are collected, and registered in USER MENU. Also, each
menu item is set to a value suitable for film production.
