Shooting with Look Adjustment in Post-Production
By using the camcorder in Cine EI mode and
recording gradations evenly from dark areas to
bright areas, you can make fine adjustments,
such as locally restoring the gradations of dark
areas and bright areas, in post production.
However, when viewing the recorded images
on a conventional monitor, the overall contrast
will appear low, making focus and exposure
adjustments difficult.
You can apply a LUT to the monitor target on
the camcorder to assist various adjustments
during shooting. You can also apply a LUT
to the playback video to check the finished
result.
LUTs are applied by the following systems.
However, only one LUT can be applied.
SDI output and HDMI output
Viewfinder and proxy images, streaming
Video recorded on recording media
Applying a LUT to the Viewfinder
Image
1 Press the MENU button to display the
Monitoring Status screen.
2 Select the Gamut/Gamma column in the
VF row.
3 Select On or Off.
[Notes]
The LUT On/Off setting of VF is also applied to proxy
file and streaming video.
Gamma display assist is available during focus
magnifier operation.
[Tips]
You can also set using LUT On/Off >VF/Proxy/Stream
(page 76) in the Shooting menu of the full menu.
SDI/HDMI can be set similarly to VF.
For video on recording media, you can set using LUT
On/Off >Internal Rec (page 76) in the Shooting
menu of the full menu.
Changing a LUT
1 Press the MENU button to display the
Monitoring Status screen.
2 Select the Base Look/LUT field.
3 Select the LUT to apply from the base look
list.
[Tips]
You can also import and apply a 3D LUT file. s709,
709(800%), or S-Log3 can be selected for the base
look. For details, see “Importing a Desired Base Look”
(page 52) and “Deleting a base look” (page 53).
The base look can also be set using Base Look >Select
(page 83) in the Paint/Look menu of the full menu.
Changing the Distribution of Dark
and Bright Areas in Recorded
Video
You can change the distribution of dark areas
and bright areas, for example, if you want to
prioritize the tone of dark areas over bright
areas, by changing the Exposure Index from
the base sensitivity.
1 Apply a LUT to the viewfinder image
(page 54).
2 Press the MENU button to display the
Camera Status screen.
3 Set the L/M/H fields of Exposure Index.
The individual settings are assigned to the
L/M/H positions of the ISO/GAIN switch
(page 5).
4 Select the Exposure Index value to apply
using the ISO/GAIN switch.
5 Adjust the exposure of the viewfinder
image as appropriate.
[Note]
Gamma display assist is available during focus magnifier
operation. The Exposure Index setting is not applied to
gamma display assist.
[Tips]
The exposure can also be adjusted using ISO/Gain/
EI >Exposure Index (page 72) in the Shooting menu
of the full menu.
The second numerical value of the setting indicates
how many steps of brightness information are
assigned for bright areas (brightness higher than 18%
gray). Areas brighter than these are overexposed.
Example: In “400EI/5.0E,” 5.0 steps are assigned on
the bright side.
You can also use this as a guide to check the tone of
dark and bright areas during shooting. For example,
if the M position is the base sensitivity, L position is
minus 2 steps, and H position is plus 2 steps, you can
check by switching the ISO/GAIN switch. Remember
to return to the M position after checking the
exposure.
