Gamma Disp. Assist
Movies with S-Log gamma are assumed to be processed after shooting in order to make use of the wide dynamic range. They are therefore displayed in low contrast during shooting and may be difficult to monitor. However, using [Gamma Disp. Assist], contrast equivalent to that of normal gamma can be reproduced. In addition, [Gamma Disp. Assist] can also be applied when playing back movies on the camera's monitor/viewfinder.
- MENU →
(Setup) → [Gamma Disp. Assist]. - Press the top/bottom of the control wheel and select the desired setting.
Menu item details
Off:- Does not apply [Gamma Disp. Assist].
Auto:- Displays movies with an [S-Log2→709(800%)] effect when the gamma set in [Picture Profile] is [S-Log2], and with an [S-Log3→709(800%)] effect when the gamma is set to [S-Log3].
S-Log2→709(800%):- Displays movies with an S-Log2 gamma reproducing contrast equivalent to ITU709(800%).
S-Log3→709(800%):- Displays movies with an S-Log3 gamma reproducing contrast equivalent to ITU709(800%).
Note
- When playing back movies and [Gamma Disp. Assist] is set to [Auto], [S-Log2→709(800%)] or [S-Log3→709(800%)] is applied automatically based on the current gamma setting in [Picture Profile], not on the gamma value of the movie (S-Log2/S-Log3).
- [Gamma Disp. Assist] is not applied to movies when displayed on a TV or monitor connected to the camera.
