Using Advanced Settings and Recording
Functions for Motion Pictures

You can set the luminance range for motion pictures. When you combine multiple

materials into a single motion picture, set a range that covers all materials.

Settings: [0s255]/[16s235]/[16s255]
•

This function works only for motion pictures. Still pictures (including those you take during

motion picture recording) will be taken with [0s255].

•

When [Rec Format] is set to [AVCHD] or [MP4], [0-255] in [Luminance Level] will switch to [16-255].

You can check areas that may be white saturated by displaying areas above a certain

luminance level in a zebra pattern. You can also set the minimum luminance level

(brightness) to be processed as a zebra pattern.

•

If there are any white saturated areas, we recommend compensating the exposure towards

negative (P54) referring to the histogram (P105) and then taking the picture.

•

Displayed zebra patterns will not be recorded.

Sets the minimum brightness level for each zebra pattern.
[Zebra 1]/[Zebra 2]

Press 3/4 to select the brightness, and press [MENU/SET].
•

You can select a brightness value between [50%] and [105%]. In [Zebra 2], you
can select [OFF]. If you select [100%] or [105%], only the areas that are
already white saturated are displayed in a zebra pattern. The smaller the value
is, the wider the brightness range to be processed as a zebra pattern will be.
