Chroma Level [OFF, -99% to 40%]
Set here is the color intensity (chroma level) of the images.
White Balance Mode
[ATW, AWB A, AWB B, 3200K, 5600K, VAR]
Set the white balance mode.
Select the mode when the coloring is not natural because of the
nature of the light source or other factors.
If the white color serving as the reference can be recognized, subjects
can be shot with natural coloring.
ATW: 
In this mode, the white balance is compensated for
automatically, even if changes occur in the light source
or color temperature, by a process of continuous and
automatic adjustment.
AWB A, AWB B:
 
When [AWB A] or [AWB B] is selected and the white
balance is executed, the adjustment results obtained are
stored in the memory selected. When [AWB A] or [AWB B]
is then selected, the white balance stored in the selected
memory can be recalled.
3200K:   This is the white balance mode which is ideal when a
3200K halogen light is used as the light source.
5600K:   This is the white balance mode which is ideal when 5600K
sunlight or fluorescent lighting is used as the light source.
VAR: 
You can specify a color temperature between 2000K to
15000K.
Color Temperature [2000K to 15000K]
You can specify a color temperature between 2000K to 15000K.

Its setting takes effect when [AWB A], [AWB B] or [Var] has been
selected as the [White Balance Mode] setting.
B Gain [–150 to +150]
This enables the B gain to be adjusted.
Its setting takes effect when [AWB A], [AWB B] or [Var] has been
selected as the [White Balance Mode] setting.
Pedestal [–150 to +150]
This item is used to adjust the black level (adjust the pedestal).
These parts become darker when a negative setting is selected and,
conversely, lighter when a positive setting is selected.
R Pedestal [–100 to +100]
This enables the R pedestal to be adjusted.
B Pedestal [–100 to +100]
This enables the B pedestal to be adjusted.

Detail [Off, On]
This enables the B pedestal to be adjusted.
Master Detail [0 to 62]
Adjust the contour correction level (master).
V Detail Level [-7 to +7]
Adjust the vertical contour correction level.
Detail Band [-7 to +7]
This is selected to set the boost frequency for Detail.
-7: Low frequency
to
+7: High frequency
When a high frequency is selected, the detail effect is added to
subjects with more definition.
Noise Suppress [0 to 60]
This is selected to reduce the screen noise which is generated by the
detail effect.
The higher the settings, the more the noise is reduced.
FleshTone NoiseSUP. [0 to 31]
This function is selected to make the skin of the subjects to be shot
appear to be smoother and more attractive.
When “High” is selected, the effect is enhanced.
Gamma Type  
[HD, SD, FILMLIKE1, FILMLIKE2, FILMLIKE3]
Select the type of gamma curve.
HD:  
  HD (High Definition) video gamma characteristic.
SD:   
  Gain in darks areas is higher than in HD gamma.
FILMLIKE1:   Characteristic capable of reproducing better gradation in
highlights than HD gamma.
FILMLIKE2:   Characteristic capable of reproducing better gradation in
highlights than [FILMLIKE1].
FILMLIKE3:   Characteristic capable of reproducing better gradation in
highlights than [FILMLIKE2].
Gamma [0.30 to 0.75]
Adjust the gamma correction level.
Specifying smaller values results in a gentler gamma curve for the
slope of low-brightness areas and sharper contrast.
Specifying larger values results in an expanded gradient for dark
areas and produces brighter images. The gamma curve for low-
brightness areas will be steeper, and contrast will be softer.
DRS [Off, Low, Mid, High]
Set the DRS function which performs correction when video with high
light/dark contrast is displayed.
You can select from a [Low], [Mid], or [High] effect level.
