CINE1: This smoothes the contrast in darker areas
and accentuates gradation changes in brighter
areas, for a calm and quiet effect (F35

CINE2: This gives almost the same results as
CINE1. Select this when you wish to obtain
100% video signals for editing or other purposes
(F35 HG4600G30).
CINE3: This emphasizes the contrast between light
and dark more than CINE1 and CINE2, and also
accentuates gradation changes on the black side.
CINE4: This emphasizes the contrast in dark areas
more than CINE3. Contrast in dark areas is
weaker and contrast in bright areas is stronger
than STD curves.
