SAFETY TIPS
The general principles are following:
! Read all contents of the Manual Carefully; ! Pay attention to all Warnings and Notes; ! Do not use the camera in a place close to the water; prevent water droplets splashed body; ! Use a clean and dry cloth to clean the camera; ! Do not block anything in the vent to avoid the camera overheating and damage; ! Use the accessories which are verified or recommendated by Kinefinity; ! Do not use camera under direct sun; ! Operate camera in the environment of 0 ~ 40
℃;
! Do not use the camera where has too much dust, humidity or lightning weather;
When using the camera, please follow: ! Flange distance of KineMOUNT is very short, so make sure to do not attempt to attach any lens directly onto KineMount,
because the rear end of lens is likely to touch the image sensor and cause d amage.
! Camera with Active EF mount employs lock-type (cine-type) EF mount. When mounting a lens to the camera, the position of
red dot in the mount is DIFFERENT from DSLR camera. Secondly, It is LOCKING RING rotation, NOT lens rotation to make sure EF lens locked firmly and to be contacted well with pogo-pin contact inside of EF mount in any case (According to the direction of the arrow).
! When loosening the locking ring to remove the lens, be su re to hold the lens to prevent the le ns from drop ping accidentally ! ! There is a switch on the door of SSD slot: slide the switch to open the door gently. The door is active part and easy to be
damaged. Take care and do NOT insert/remove with too much force, when operating.
! It is strongly recommended th a t insert or remov e the SSD AFTER camera powers down. If hotswap, you must Unmount the
SSD at first (SSD section in UI shows an idle state), after that you can open the door to get SSD o u t.

2. BASIC OPERATIONS
2.1 FOCUSING, RESOLUTION AND MONITORING
2.1.1 Three types of resolutions
It involves three types of resolution when monitoring:
! Record resolution of camera: it is resolution of recorded clips,, like 4K, DCI Scope 2.3 9 :1 , 1 0 8 0 p , etc.; ! Display resolution of camera: used for m o n ito rin g in liv e vie w of playback. Not matter how much record resolution, the
display resolution is 720p or 1080p in Kine camera;
! Resolution of monitor which consists of one LCD/OLED/FLCOS display and dedicated processing hardware:
$ Physical resolution of monitor: native resolution of LCD monitor, like 1280x800;
$ Resolution supported by monitor: processing unit of monitor can turn many kinds of typical resolution like 480p
(upconvert), 720p, 1080p (downconvert) to fit th e p h ys ic al r es o lu tio n o f monitor, like 1280x800.
Monitor often has the function of 1:1 zoom: there is NO of upconvertion nor downconvertion of input resolution; it crops input image to the same with native resolutio n o f m o n ito r.
For example, the native resolution of monitor is 1280x800, but its process unit can display 1080p video by downconvertion from 1080 p to 1280x800, and can d isp la y 4 8 0 p v id e o b y u p co n v e rs ion f ro m 480p to 1280x800.
2.1.2 ZOOM button and Focusing
Zoom IN video or 1:1 by ZOOM button quickly, for example from recorded resolution o f 4 K 4096x2160, into display res o lu tio n o f 720p, 1280x720:
! Fit: 4K video Zoom out (down c o nv e rt) into 7 2 0 p v id e o o f d isp la y re so lu tio n ; ! 100%: Pixel to pixel, 1:1, Crop on 4K video into 720 video of displa y re so lu tio n . There is only part of recorded im ag e
shown on the monitor;
NOTE: image on the monitor an d display part of recorded image will be exactly 1:1 if physical resolution of monitor is also 720p, else you need to use 1:1 zoom o n th e monitor to make image on th e monitor and display part of reco rd e d image will be exactly 1:1.
! 200%: Doubling the recording area, the image may appear jagged to some extent because it is magnified and interpolated. ! 800%: Magnification of the display area to eight times, it is super magnified so that it appears jagged and color aliasing
because of interpolation.
NOTE: When focusing right, color aliasing will become clearest. It is recommended using 800% Zoom to help on focusing;
NOTE: For Kine cameras, images on monitor are not the same with recorded image. Generally speaking, images on monitor are
not good as recorded clips. There would show some jagged pattern, Moire, especially the 4K recording.

2.2 Exposure: Waveform, Zebra and Histogram
Waveforms, zebra and histogram help cinematographers determine the exposure of images.
Reference level of exposure on waveform:
! 70 to 80% in the Post RGB mode; ! 20 to 30% in the RAW RGB mode.
2.2.1 Monitoring Different Paths of Images
Waveform in the lower right corner of UI indicates the brightness of image s o n th e h o riz on ta l d ire c tio n , w h ile h isto g r am in the middle of UI shows the statistical information on the brightness of whole image. Besides typical display the waveform and histogram, you can also choose different paths of images to check exposure: pure RAW data or RAW data loaded with monitoring LUT.
You can switch waveforms and histogram among different modes through the menu settings.
CONFIG"Liveview"Histogram
! RAW LUM: Information in the histogram d isp la y s dis trib u tio n o f lu mination based on the RAW data. It is REAL
intensity of light what sensor see s. ! RAW RGB: The histogram information display R / G / B three color channels distribution which is based on the RAW
data. It is sensor to see the brightness distribution of the three colors red, green and blue. ! Post LUM: The histogram information d isp la y d istrib u tio n o f b r ig htn e s s which is based on the processed d a ta f ro m RAW
data loaded with monitoring LUT. ! Post RGB: The histogram information display distribution of RGB which is based on RAW data after the processing of
monitoring LUT loaded.
NOTE: When selecting different histogram option, waveform can also be displayed by the same option. For example, selecting Post RGB, camera will also use processed RGB data from RAW data loaded with monitoring LUT to calculate waveform;
NOTE: When over 100% on the waveform of Post RGB, images do not mean overexposure definitely, only over 100% on the waveform of RAW RGB, images must be overexposed.

!
2.2.2 Tick mark of histogram
There are two vertical lines of histogram: one is grey and the other is white. They mean:
! Grey vertical line: the grey vertical line will overlap the peak in the histogram if 18% Grey card is placed in the scene and
Iris number, Shutter Speed and ISO value match standard exposure (can be set by exposure meter), in the current situation
of lighting; ! White vertical line: the white vertical line will overlap the peak in the histogra m if 90% White card is placed in th e s c en e
and Iris number, Shutter Speed and ISO value match standard exposure (can be set by exposure meter), in the current
situation of lighting;
2.2.3. Zebra
Zebra strip is a very straightfoware way to indicate where is overexposed in the image.
Zebra threshold can set in different value:
CONFIG" Liveview " Zebra
The default is 90%: it means that it will display zebra when the light exceeds 90% of the maximum range.
NOTE: For Kine camera, the zebra calculation is based on RAW data: RAW data is almost to be over exposed, as it is up to 90% when the zebra appears. So observe zebra carefully to avoid unintentional over-exposure in most cases. Overexposed RAW data is the "dead white" in the post workflow.
NOTE: Zebra of Kine camera may appear as pink strips, or black strips, not necessarily the traditional black and white zebra.

2.3 ACTIVE EF MOUNT AND ELECTRONIC EF LENS
As long as Kine cameras is camera body with native EF mount, or KineMOUNT + Active EF mounting adaptor, Kine cameras support the iris control of Canon EF lens which are in the white list of compatibility.
2.3.1 Enable or Disable Iris Control
Kine cameras enable the iris control. It can display and control iris of EF lens which are in the white list of compatibility if EF lens is attached well based on the quick guide.
WARNING: DO NOT attach the lens with all metal at its end, else it may damage the irs control system of Kine cameras. This kind of EF lens are often configured from other mount lens to EF lens.
If have to use such EF lens, follow the instruction to disable the iris con trol, and turn active EF mounting adaptor or EF mount into passive one.
CONFIG"Shoot" EF Iris Conrol"Disable
Just set is as [Enable] if want to enble the iris control.
2.3.2 Iris number a n d Ir is tu ning
It will show maximum Iris number in the liveview display after attaching EF lens onto EF mount for first time, like 1/2.8, 1/1.8.
NOTE: The maximum Iris number may not be same with the nominal number marked on the lens, may be lower 1/3 f-stop. The max Iris number shown in the liveview display is the number told by Lens to Kine camera, NOT the value set by camera. Sometimes, it would change to be same number with the nominal number on the lens after a few times of Iris operations.
Press Multifunction Wheel"RIGHT once;
! Iris Shortcut List will pop out; try to choose the available Iris num be r with the step of 1/3
f-stop by rotation of Multifunction Wheel, as shown. Th e iris n u mber is tuned in real-time.
! If Iris Shortcut List does Not pop out, but LUT Shortcut List: it means Lens is not recognized by camera:
# Make sure attach EF lens to EF mount in right way: please refer to Section of Quick Guide – attach lens. ;
# Make sure the EF lens is compatible with Kine cameras: please refer to Section 2.3.3, EF lens white list;
# Make sure the iris control enabled: CONFIG"Shooting"EF Iris control;
# Make sure Active EF mounting adaptor assembled well if camera body is version of KineMOUNT: please refer to
quick guide-assemble mouting adaptors. Press CONFIG, it will show [EF sys 8] at the bottom o f co n f ig ur atio n lis t.
NOTE: The lens Iris changes from max Iris number to specific number chosen by user: the image changes from brightest to responding level set by specific number. This is most accurate way to set Iris number of electronic EF lens.

2.4.3 KineMAG and 3rd party SSD
KineMAG™ is born to match Kine cameras: it can handle high bandwidth True RAW recording and also both RAW recording, with Reliability and Long life because KineMAG™ is built based SLC flash which endures much longer than SSD with MLC flash which often used in cheap SSD.
It has different capacities as 120GB and 240GB . If reco rd 2 4f ps, the reco rd time over different codecs and d iff er en t resolutions are shown as follows:
Record Format

NOTE: 4K Cineform RAW can not recorded in KineMINI for over 10 seconds, while 4K KineRAW and 4K CinemaDNG have no such limits.
Certified Compatibility: KineMAG™ is born to match Kine cameras: it can handle high bandwidth True RAW recording and also both RAW recording. It has different capacities as 120GB and 240GB. Bandwidth of 4K CinemaDNG at 30fps is around 400MB/s. KineMAG can handle the speed, and also for KineRAW codec, Cineform RAW codec too.
Reliability and Long life: Kine Cameras need to write data sequentially to KineMAG™ SSD, and zer o tole ra b le to d ata e rro r/m is sin g frame over various situation, so it demands KineMAG™ SSD w orking reliably and long-life. KineMAG™ is built on SLC flash which endures much longer than SSD with MLC flash which often used in cheap SSD.
Kine cameras do not prohibit users from using third-party SSD. Users could try to use third-party SSD, but generally speaking, third­party SSD are consumer-type, often using MLC flash memory chip even TLC memory chip. As known, MLC and TLC suffers from stability and much lower durance, compared to SLC Flash. KineMAG employs high qu ality SLC flash m em ory chip. On ly KineMAG SSD is recommended.
NOTE: Performance on data spec are guarantied by KineMAG SSD. There is no technical support or help on recording issues such as frame drop or data loss if using third-party SSD.

2.5. Audio
KineMINI supports audio input (MIC-IN) to record the synchronous (mono, not stereo) audio, but it does not support the MIC of phantom power 48V. MIC-IN port is located at front of the camera with jack of 3.5m m . It w ill gene rate tw o unc ompressed audio files when recording with the external microphone inserted MIC-IN port. The audio track will be packa g e d in to a Cineform mov file directly if the record codec is Cineform RAW mov or transcoded by KineStation if project fps equals to sensor fps.
There is 3.5mm headphone socket which can be used for audio monitoring by earphone.
2.5.1 Use general/ consumer-type MIC
General/Consumer-type MIC, such as SONY ECM-DS70P, headset of computer; Insert the Consumer-type MIC at first and then power on the camera. VU meter will show the audio volume in liveview. This indicates that KineMINI can record audio through the external MIC; press the record butto n , th e n KineMINI records audio/sound into SSD together with video/images.
The sound quality of Consumer-type MIC is not very good, but it still could be used as the sync sound for post workflow.
NOTE: You MUST insert the MIC before powering on the camera, else KineMINI can not recognise the MIC, thus can not record the sound at all.
2.5.2 Use professional MIC
For professional MIC, such as NTG1/NTG2/NTG3 from Rode, most of them needs phantom power of 48V. If the MIC must require phantom power of 48V, it can not be used with KineMINI directly.
In addition, for professional MIC powered by internal 5# battery, it also needs to be inserted into MIC-in port of KineMINI before powering on the camera, otherwise KineMINI still is unable to detect sound.
The sound quality may be not good and noise level is relatively high when conn ec te d to K in e MINI, because of impedanc e m is match. You may need line-out of audio recorder to KineMINI if you want professional MIC to get better audio quality.
2.5.3 Use audio recorder
If you want to get the better in-camera audio quality, you need the help of recorder. For the professional or semi-professional audio recorder , such as Tascam DR60, H4N a nd othe r reco rde rs, no t only they ca n r ec o rd th e au d io f ile o f h ig h q ua lity in to re c o rd in g m e d ia of themselves, but also it can output Line-Out to KineMINI to make KineMINI record the in-camera high quality audio.
When using the professional MIC such as NTG3 connected to DR60, the Line-Out or Phone-Out of DR60 connects to the MIC-IN of KineMINI by an audio cable with 3.5mm plug. By this way, DR60 can output the high quality audio to KineMINI so that KineMINI can record high quality audio as in-camera recording at the same time.
You can also use the DR60 to record a high quality audio file in DR60 directly when feeding the Line-Out of DR60 to KineMINI, and then match the images recor de d b y KineMINI in the post workflo w.

!
Operation Sequence:
1. Use an open-ended audio cable with 3.5mm
plug or a general MIC to connect to the MIC-IN of KineMINI at first.
NOTE: the other end of audio cable do e s NOT connect to the Line-Out of recorder;
2. After booting camera, you can see that
VU meter will show the audio volume in liveview, Do not power off the camera and connect the other end of audio cable to the Line-Out of recorder; you can also pull out the MIC, and plug in the Lin e-Out of recorder to MIC-IN of KineMINI;
3. If the recorder is on, the VU of KineMINI
will display the range of audio level from the recorder.
Use earphone to monitor the audio level of KineMINI: if the noise level is high, you can tune down the analog gain audio in CONFIG–>audio–>Gain; At the same tim e , y o u may need to increase the output v o lu me of recorder until the audio qua lity is suitable.
NOTE: You may need to connect the external MIC to the right channel/CH2 input if you use th e ex te rn a l MIC like NTG3, because the Line-Out is MONO OUT generally.
NOTE: If you can not detect the audio in KineMINI, you m ay try to ins ert to left channel/CH1, or change another audio cable.
NOTE: If using a headset, KineMINI has audio level, bu t N ot w he n u sing the L ine-Out from recorder, please follow above operation
sequence, or you need to check the VU of recorder whether it works.
NOTE: When using wireless mic, such as SONY UWP-D, you need to boot camera with open-ended audio cable or ordinary headset at first, and then connect the wireless mic after power on, otherwise KineMINI can not detect the wireless MIC.

2.5.4 Tune gain of MIC and volume of headphone
There is a VU meter to show input level of MIC at the left corner in the liveview display. There is 3.5mm headphone socket which can be used for audio monitoring by earphone. What you hear by earphone is what to be recorded as in-camera audio.
For the input level of audio, you can tune the gain of audio in-camera, besides tuning external level of a u d io de v ic e :
CONFIG"Audio"Capture(dB)
The default value is 15dB.
The volume of headphone are two types:
! For liveview: what will be recorded when recording video, the default value of 0dB: CONFIG"Audio"Live(dB): ! For playback: what is recorded when recording video by camera, the default value of 0dB:
CONFIG"Audio"Playback(dB).
2.5.5 Audio, project fps and sensor fps.
When recording quick-mo and slow-mo, and Sensor fps is not equal to Project fps: When you transcodes from KRW or DNG into 4K Ciniform RAW mov in KineStation or record 2K Cineform RAW mov in-camera directly, the recorded audio will be copied directly into clip folder, Not embeded in to mov files.
2.5.6 Beeper and Pilot
The beeper in Kine cameras has two usages:
! Camera will make a tone of 1KHz and 2KHz respectively when beginning to shoot and stop shooting, to give signal to
crew in the field. You can disable the beeper by: CONFIG"SYNC" Beeper out; ! Camera will record the tone of 1KHz and 2KHz at the beginning of the video and end of the video when beginning to
shoot and stop shooting, as pliot for post-workflow. You can disable the function by: CONFIG"SYNC" Record Beeper.

2.6 KineGrip: Multifunction Sidegrip with power supply
KineGrip Side Handgrip with Multi-Function Control and Powering. The existence of KineGrip turns camera into a handheld camera, like DSLR. KineGrip provides not only power to camera, but also provides full control. The dials and buttons on KineGrip can control Iris (if EF lens), ISO directly, and other camera parameters .
2.6.1 KineGrip’ s buttons and dials
! Zoom Focusing: Full/1:1/1:2/1:8; ! ISO Dial: Direct tuning ISO by dial control; ! Record/Stop; ! Lower Power Switch(it may be used to switch
lower power or normal state in future firmware) ! Iris Control Dial: Direct tuning Iris by dial
control (when electronic EF lens mounted); ! Multi-function navigation buttons with Full screen
button. ! 1/4’ screws for installing Grip to Kine camera
Body.
2.6.2 KineGrip Function
The great thing of KineGrip for camear can use industry standard 18650 batteries with protection. KineGrip with New Battery Holder must use three 18650 batteries with protection at the same time. New Battery holder which is printed by 3D tech for three protected 18650 batteries can be easily operated for batteries replacement. KineMINI 4K can work up to 60 mins if using new Panasonic 18650 batteries with 3400mA capacity.
The dials and buttons of KineGrip can replace the most of buttons at the left the camera body, and are easy for handheld. And the battery voltage and warning threshold will be shown on the UI.
UPS function: when connected with external power source like broadcast battery, or AC-DC power. So that you change broadcast battery or sidegrip battery without power down camera.

2.6.3 18650 batteries
As of 18650 batteries which KineMINI uses, guidelines are following:
! Must use 18650 battery with protection: Strongly recommend to employ 18650 batteries with 3MOS protection circuits.
3MOS protection circuits: it can protect 18650 Li batteries effectively when voltage of battery drops much;
! Must use three batteries as triplet: charging, usage, storage; ! Never rip off the thin film around the 18650 batteries: these film are to solid the protection circuits with batteries. ! Do Not charge batteries with large current: avoid charging current over 1A. Recommend NiteCore I4 charger from
Kinefinity Store. It takes around 4~6 hrs if charging a 3400mA battery to full state. ! We recommend Sanyo 2600mA 18650 battery with 3MOS protection, and Panasonic 3400mA 18650 battery with 3MOS
protection.
2.6.4 Achieve long durance for handset
To achieve long durance as possible, when using only KineGrip to power camera:
! Turn off SDI output: CONFIG"System"Settings"SDI Power"Disable; ! Turn off WIFI: CONFIG"System"Settings"WIFI Power"Disable; ! Set Display resolution to 720p: CONFIG"Liveview"Display resolution"720p.
After the above settings, and restart camera, you could get longer durance than 1 hour.

2.7 KineStation
KineStation is the core of Kine camera system. KineStation and Kine camera consist of hybrid digital cinema system to cover serious filmmaking and quick post workflow. Kine Cameras captures light and images which are RAW and remain native information as possible at frontend, while KineStation™ transcode the RAW images into the specific format based on post workflow which may suit for this shot or this team, at backend.
2.7.1 Features of KineStation
KineStation can run on Windows and MAC OS platform. It can transcode CinemaDNG/KRW sequence, timecode, audio and LUT into Cineform RAW m o v /C in ef o rm RGB 444 mov so that yo u c a n u se C in e fo r m workflow:
! If recorded clips are Cineform RAW mo v, N o ne ed to use Kin eS tation ; ! If recorded clips are KRW(non HiSpeed m od e), can use KineStation to transcode into :
$ Cineform RAW mov or
$ Cineform RGB444 mov or
$ Uncompressed CinemaDNG(is exactly same with uncompressed CinemaDNG recording in -camera). ! If recorded clips are KRW(HiSpeed mode), can use KineStation to transcode into Cineform RGB444 mov; ! If recorded clips are CinemaDNG, can use K ine S tation to transc od e into :
$ Cineform RAW mov or
$ Cineform RGB444 mov ! It provides three Debayer options when transcod ing into C ine form RGB444: Simple, Normal and Details. ! Fast trancoding speed: For transcoding into Cineform RAW from CinemaDNG or KRW, KineStation process it with very
high efficiency, faster than copy speed if you use USB 3.0 port. It only takes around 15 mins to transcode 64GB
KineMAG SSD footages on i3 laptop, and 5 mins running on la te st MBP with i7 CPU.
For future of KineStation, it would support more output codecs like ProRes, H265, DPX for different post-workflow and different requirements on project. And Clip Manage m en ts an d m a rk, pla yb ac k, da ily.
There is a hardware fingerprint in the clip recorded by Kine cameras, so that KineStation can recognise it when transcoding.
It is free for KineMINI, KineMAX and Kine R A W -S35, but charge on KineRAW-MINI users.
NOTE: Windows OS users can download KineStation from official site, while MAC OS users need to apply it by email to sales@kinefinity.com.

2.7.2 How to use KineStation
To work with KineStation, you need to install following software:
! GoPro Cineform Studio (free) or GoPro Cineform Studio Premium; ! Quicktime7.
Operation Steps:
1. Choose Source path of your clips: generally choosing SSD or the folder which contains clip folders.
2. Choose Destination path of transcoding;
3. Set number of process of transcoding;
4. Set Debayer Option if you choose target codec as Cineform RGB444;
5. Click OK after above settings are done.
6. There is progress log in the KineStation to show what happen to your clips when transcoding.
# If original clip is Cineform RAW mov, KineStation will copy it to destination folder;
# If original clip is KRW at HiSpeed mode, KineStation will transcode it into Cineform R G B 4 44 auto m atica lly. A nd
Debayer option does not take effect on it.
7. After transcoding, there will be new folders inside of destination folder, and structure of folder is exactly same with
original one.

2.7.3 FAQ of KineStation
1.##Why#does#anti/virus#software#on#my#windows#regard#KineStation#as#Trojan#horse?#
Don’t worry about that; just ignore the warning. Your anti-virus software makes warning because KineStation has an encrypted shell to protect intellectual property.
2.#KineStation#support#MAC#OS?#
Yes. Only difference between Windows and MAC OS is:
! Windows version of KineStation can be downloaded from our official website; and MAC version NOT. Just write an
email to Kinefinity/Kinefinity distributors for it after you get your KR-MINI and buy KineStation; ! New function may run on Windows at first, two months head of MAC version.
3.#Why#does#KineStation#report#error:#Can#not#find#clips?#
You may need choose root folder containing all clips as source path, Not choose one single clip folder as source path. For example,
! If KineMAG SSD is
E:/, then choose E:/. It will list all clips under E:/.
! If you achieved all clips into
F:/WeakEgg/GreatShots/, then you need to choose F:/WeakEgg/GreatShots/ as source path.
4.#Why#does#KineStation#report#error:#Can#not#generate#new#mov#file?#
Possible reasons:
! Did not install Quicktime mov; ! Destination path needs to be English path, especially MAC version; ! Volume label of Destination path needs to be English word, such as GreatKine;
Please change a PC or MAC to try it if you already fix above items, because your PC may contains so many codecs or plugins to be conflicted.
NOTE: Please take care of any warnings in the KineStation log. If some clips drop frames, KineStation will only make a Cineform mov with not full length.

3. SETTINGS AND ADVANCED OPERATIONS
3.1 UNDERCRANK OR OVERCRANK (QUICK-MO OR SLOW-MO)
3.1.1 Two types of fps
Sensor fps: It is the capturing fps of sensor. Sensor fps could be defined to any value between minimum fps (6fps, in current firmware) and the maximum sensor fps, su c h as 1 8 , 2 7 , 2 4, 48 or 59.
Project fps: It is the fps which used by playback clips, editing clips or delivery. Typical project fps are 23.976, 24.000, 25.0 00 , 2 9 .9 7 or 30.000. You can choose one of them based on your need. For example: 24fps for movie, and 25fps for TV release (PAL).
When the project fps is set to 24fps, whatever you set your sensor fps (Undercrank 20fps/10fps or Overcrank 60fps) in shooting stage, clips will be played at 24fps in post production or in-camera playback. For example: We usually choose 22fps S e n so r f p s for sho oting action movies, but choose 24fps for playback. This kind of way is called o v e rc ra n k /un d er cr an k in se rio u s filmaking which makes the actions seems more fast.
The factory setting of project fps is 25fps for TV-PAL.

3.1.3 User-defined Sensor FPS
For regular fps, like 23.97624.00025.00029.7630.000, can be ch o se n in F P S Shortcut List, while sensor fps could be defined to any value between minimum fps (6fps, in current firmware) and the maximum sen s o r fp s , su c h as 1 8 , 27, 24, 48 or 59. Accuracy can be 0.001fps.
CONFIG"Shoot"Sensor FPS
You can set three user-defined sensor fps in this dialog.
For example, Sensor fps is defined to 8fps, then the 8fps will be added into the Sensor fps shortcut list at all resolutions; Sensor fps is defined to 48fps, then the 48fps option would not appear at S35, 1080p and 2K resolutions, but will be added into the Sensor fps menu at S35 HiSpeed, 720p and S16, 1080p/2K resolutions if buy HiSpeed option.
You can delete the customized Sensor fps by modify it to 24.000.
To change the project fps of camera,
CONFIG"Shoot"Project FPS
NOTE: The audio track will be packaged into a Cineform mov file directly if the record codec is Cineform RAW mov or transcoded by KineStation if project fps equals to sensor fps, else it just two uncompressed audio files in the clip fo ld er.

3.2 COLOR TEMPERATURE AND AUTO WB
The color temperature is tuned by directly adjusting RGB channels of sensor to change original RAW data, rather than apply a digital LUT. Although you can modify white balance of RAW data or change color temperature by post processing, all the modifications are based on the data you shoot previously. In order to minimize the distortion in post processing, it is important to gain as accurate color temperature as possible in shoo tin g sta g e .
3.2.1 Two White Balance Lists
The camera has two types of color temperature list for white balance: Simple List and Complete List.
! Typical List: List most of the typical color temperatures such as 2800K, 3200K, 4300K, 5500K, 5600K, 6400K and
UserWB. Among them, UserWB is user-defined valule, which is automatically generated when do the Auto WB manually. ! Complete List: List fairly complete color temperatures according to the portfolios of color temperatures (in accordance
with the 50K for a step) and lighting types. You can simply choose the one which matchs with your shooting conditions.
To change the color temperatures in the white balance lists,
CONFIG"Liveview"Color Tempearture List
3.2.2 Auto WB
For most cases, the Complete List of color temperature can meet the need for most of cases.
However, if the color temperatures listed in the built-in lists are not enough to meet complex shooting lighting conditions, you can use a gray card or white card to do Auto WB to achieve your specific color temperature. To do the Auto WB:
1. Put a gray card at front of the camera;
2. You may use Zoom function to make the image shown in the monitor full of grey, or white card;
3. CONFIG"Liveview"Auto WB . The camera corrects the white balance parameters, and write the color temperature
value to the UserWB. Once the UserWB is set, it can be used at any time later.

3.3 HISPEED MODE/SPORT MODE
HiSpeed Mode or Sport Mode is a special working mode of CMOS sensor for Kine cameras. When related to HiSpeed or Sport mode, they are same thing for operation. For HiSpeed Op tion, it provides more high FPS for HiS peed M od e and S1 6m m Mode.
HiSpeed mode is used for shooting quick movement or actions, especially when camera on shoulder, handheld, fast panning, or documentary-style shooting. CMOS rolling effect will be greatly reduced at HiSpeed mode, and you may have an experience of global shutter shooting when capturing quick movement.
However, the picture quality will be slightly degraded at HiSpeed mode as the latitude will be lower one f-stop than the normal S 35 mode. And you may find jagged edg e o r m o ir é.
NOTE: Recommended ISO settings are 320 or 200 at HiSpeed mode, to get lower noise.

3.3.2 Set HiSpeed Mode
Two ways for swtiching HiSpeed between normal mode:
! CONFIG" Shoot" Image Format "HiSpeed to choose HiSpeed Options; ! Or in LIVEVIEW mode, press Multifunction Wheel"DOWN (3 push-button) twice to pop up the Preset list , and choose
specifc preset has HiSpeed. (Preset can be saved for current parameters: CONFIG"Shooting"Save parameters to, some
preset)
For HiSpeed mode, the codec can only be KRW. So you need transcode into Cineform mov by KineStation for post-workflow:
! Transcoding by KineStation from KRW into Cineform RGB444 mov . T h e Cineform RGB444 mov lik e Cineform RAW
mov, can be playback and edit, graded in most DI and NLE software; ! Output format is RGB444, there is no color loss due to transcoding.

3.4 ANAMORPHIC LENS SUPPORT AND 3K RECORDING
Camera supports 3K recording and 4:3 anamorphic mode (M4/3 Frame) if purchased 4K RAW recording option, there will be more three resolutions at 3K:
Format

3K HD Wide
2880x1208*
60
For shooting at 3K resolution, it will gain much better 2K images with downconversion in post-workflow; and it can get an acceptable 4K images with upconversion in post-workflow too.
Aspect ratio of 4:3 matches anamorphic lens with factor of 2, so that it will gain CinemaScope frame as 8:3(2.66:1). With the process in post-workflow, it can reach up to 5760x2160 (6K) CinemaScope .
For monitoring when shooting at 4:3 with anamorphic lens, you can de-sqeeze the images into normal image by setting anamorphic lens factor in CONFIG m e n u . F o r e x ample, anamorphic lens factor is 2 , s e t the f ac to r in camera to 2, then you can get normal view of 6K CinemaScope, not squeezed image by lens.
Set the ratio:
CONFIG"LiveView"Anamorphic
Choose the ratio.

3.5 SENSOR FORMAT SIZE
Kine camera supports different sensor format size for recording, like S35mm and S16mm. The type of camera sensor is 4K S35mm CMOS.
3.5.1 Sensor Format Size and Mount Type
As we all know, the effective sensor format size determines the mount and lens to be chosen.
! For S35mm mode, which is equivalent to APS-C format, and as well as S35mm size in movie, you can choose to use
movie lens or lots of SLR camera lens; ! For S16mm mode, the sensor format size is about 2/3 inch. The S16mm Cine lens or B4 lens can be also used at S16mm
mode.
S16mm mode is the crop mode of 4K S35mm sensor, so you can achieve S16mm format size at the resolution is exactly 2K.
3.5.2 Features of S16mm Mode
For S16mm mode, the 4K S35mm Sensor captures videos by setting the effective sensor format of 2K S16mm in the middle. At S16mm mode, there are several advantages:
! Supports S16mm Cine lens.
Note: most of the mount of S16mm movie lens are PL mount, just attach lens to PL mount of Kine cameras; ! Supports B4 mounting lens: Large zoom range, large aperture;
NOTE: Not all B4 mounting lenses can be attached into 2/3 inches camera s. S o me B4 mount lenses are used in 1 /2 in ch even 1/ 2.5 inche cameras. If these types of lens are attached on Kine cameras at S16mm mode, there are black corners;
! If you still use S35mm lens , such as canon Zoom lens o r S 3 5 mm Cine lens, the equvilent focal length automatically
becomes double, like turning into a long focus lens in one second;
! Sensors can realize overcrank by working on higher shooting speed, like 60fps@2K/1080p; ! Rolling effects would be reduced significantly.
NOTE: As S16mm format size by cropping and using the middle part of the sensor, which leads to latitude drop down by two f-stops, and equivalent noise increases two f-stops, so you need to lower ISO. For example, you use ISO 640 at S35mm mode, then you may need to lower your ISO to 160 at S16mm mode to get the same degree of noise.
3.5.3 How to Set S16mm Frame Two ways to set S16mm mode:
! CONFIG"Shooting"Sensor Format Size"S16mm; or ! In liveview, press “9. Multi-functional Rotary Button”Down (3 pus h -button) twice, pop up the Preset Shortcut List, and
choose S16mm option.(Preset can be saved for current parameters: CONFIG"Shooting"Save parameters to, some preset)

3.6 LUT
The in-camera monitoring LUT control how the monitor image will look, the convert the wide range True RAW sensor data into something that fits into the smaller range a monitor can display well, and ad ju s ts th e lev e ls f o r 9 0 % white and 18% gray to meet the signal targets that are normal for a monitor image that looks correctly exposed.
3.6.1 Three in-camera LUT for monitoring
For Kine camera, the images in the field is the RAW files loaded with some monitoring LUT. For example, Kine709 LUT as default one; or choose KineLOG to show all the latitude, it helps cinematograher make judgement on lighting. For post workflow, you can choose the LUT to playback when shooting, automatically, or choose other LUT, or grade o n Logged clips directly.
The three in-camera monitoring LUT:
! Kine709: which simulates the TV and Broadcast standard signal levels to make a broadcast ready image that does not
require further grading if the in camera exposure wa s acc ura te. Th e K in eR A W™ cameras have live waveform and
histogram displays to help you get the exposure accurate, and there are tick marks on the histogram for the 18% gray and
90% white card target values so you can always use those as a reference to a card or a white shirt and such to set the target
exposure then make small adjustments using the zebras and monitor image to compensate for back light and
cinematographers preference. By default the Kine709 ™ output results (using the 3D-LUT made by the camera) are set to
ITU 601 limits. ! KineLOG: which simulates the Cineon™ Log film density curve that Kodak ™ invented for use with their film scanners,
you can take the KineLOG ™ results and open them in any standard work-flow that is currently working with 16mm or
35mm film scans and get ‘on target’ levels for 90% white and 18% gray when the camera expsoure has been made at the
EI ISO assigned to each in camera LUT, that EI ISO is selected with the ISO button and displays on the camera’s
viewfinder along with the monitoring LUT name to remind you which LUT you have selected. ! KineColor: which gives full range output and somewh a t lo w e r c o n tra st th a n Kine709 ™ for shooting pro jec ts w e re y o u
would rather have a monitor viewable result and not need to use a monitorin g L UT in your post production too ls like y o u
need to with KineLOG ™. The use of full range images that are close to final grade makes work-flow somewhat simpler
and can reduce mistakes that might happen using film log work-flow for people that have been using video post
production tools rather than film scan post production tools.
3.6.2 KineColor2 LUT and 3rd party LUT
KineOS3.2 does not support loading 3rd-party LUT into camera, and even does not support KineColor2 as in-camera monitoring.
If you want to use KineColor2 and 3
rd
-party LUT, you need to load them in DI or NLE software. Refer to Section 4 footages and post-
workflow.

3.7 EI/ISO MODE
The latitude of real world is very large, and human eye can discern very subtle difference on it. CMOS sensor of camera can not cover all of them. It requires reasonable configuration for Sensor of Camera: EI / ISO is a g rou p of setting s to c aptu re ligh t on the Sensor.
NOTE: Before not well understood EI and ISO, it is recommended to use ISO, rather than EI. Use of EI may cause footages underexposed.
EI / ISO is displayed at the upper right corner of the main interface, and Kine camera provide two ways to set it: ! ISO mode: nominal value of ISO is IS O ASA, will affect the RAW data, similar to the ISO meaning of Canon C300, as well as
DSLRs. $ The default mode is ISO mode configuration. ISO640, Highlight level(Highlight, that is 18% gray to ADC Clip) is 3.6 f-
stops, which corresponds to Headroom (Headroom, that is 90% white to ADC Clip) 1.3 f-stops;
$ Setting to ISO below 800, does not affect latitude, while the ISO highe r th a n 8 0 0 , latitu d e degrades. $ When Highlight number unchanged, lower ISO, dynamic range of CMOS Sensor tend to move to shadow, smaller noise,
more shadow detail, the picture looks more clean. On the contrary, in the case of external light source is not enough, you
need to increase ISO: it improves the Sensor sensitivity, but the noise increases, the highlight detail will be reduced;
$ When changing the ISO, Highlight level will not change, but remains at 3.6 f-stop. $ Highlight f-stops can be set at ISO mode. CONFIG"Shooting " Highlight level(ISO), choose from the 3.3 to 6.3 f-stops.
Headroom is equivalent to 1 to 4.3 range. When setting high light gear, ISO of available will be limited, such as high light
gear as 3.6, the lowest ISO is 200, when Highlight level is 4.3, IS O least 320, and so on.
NOTE: Use default Highlight level of 3.6 f-stops, to make exposure of clips in post-workflow same with monitoring.
$ As the name suggests, ISO in the same case, highlight level bigger,the sensitivity of the sensor will be reduced , and thus
retain more highlight detail, and fewer shadows. Less shadows means more noises.
! EI mode: like RED and Alexa, value of EI will not affect the recording of RAW data no matter it increases and decreases, but its
LUT is different. If the cinematographer is familiar with shooting RED / Alexa and lighting, EI mode can be set. In the case of big budget on the lighting and film, EI is preferred.
$ Set EI 640/800, Sensor has max dynamic range. If lighting not enough, increase the aperture a n d or add more lighting ; If
lighting is too much, add ND filter or try to reduce source of lighting. $ To recover the same brightness of image in the post-workflow, the monitoring LUT mus t be loaded on clip when EI is
used.

3.12 HOW TO SHOOT REAL 3D
Camera supports real 3D shooting, what you need are only:
1. Two cameras with 3D shooting options;
2. One 3D SYNC cable.
Connect two cameras firstly by SYNC cable. Can set one of the cameras as Master and the other as Slave in three second. The two cameras’ sensors are almost completely synchronized: time code synchronization, frame synchronization and scanning synchronization with less than 5us mismatch.
3.12.1 Steps for setting two cameras.
To shoot 3D:
1. Power off two cameras, and connect two "16. 3D synchronization (Sync)" ports of
cameras with special 3D SYNC cable;
2. Set shooting parameters of the two cameras to the same, such as: shutter, sensor fps,
project fps, resolution, ISO, highlights, etc.;
3. Define the clip name. CONFIG" Shoot"Slate. Please set the Lens number of Master
to 0001 , and slave one to 0002, which represent the left e ye clips and the right eye
clips. All the other clip parameters must be set exactly the same, except clip name;
4. Do Auto WB with grey or white card for two cameras respectively, so that gain
consistent color temperature;
5. For Master Camera, CONFIG" SYNC"3D Master;
6. For Slave Camera, CONFIG" SYNC"3D Slave; the n A sync con firmation pops up,
to Connect Master camera;
7. The Confirmation disappears once Connection is confirmed.
# Master Camera: Master in Green font appears on the upper left corner of the
screen;
# Slave Camera: Slave in Green font appears on the upper left corner of the screen;
Press "15. REC Record" button, two cameras will shoot fully consistent clips which match the left eye and right eye respectively.

3.12.2 Playback and Exit 3D Shoot
In current firmware version, Playback is not sup po rted in 3D yet, a n you can only playback in 2 D mode. So you have to exit 3D settings firstly:
1. Press "11. CONFIG" button or "8 playback" button on Master or Slave camera to pop up Confirmation, Select [Disconnect
3D Sync];
# If you choose to disconnect 3D synchronization on the MASTER camera, the MASTER camera turns into 2D
/Single operation mode, and the SLAVE enters SYNC mode: Yellow SY NC shows on the slave camera to indicate the sla v e came ra enters a special intermediate state. If you want to re-enter 3D shooting mode again, only to select 3D Master in MASTER camera while the SLAVE camera do nothing;
# If disconnected from the SLA VE camera, the SLAVE camera turns into 2D /Single operation mode, and the
MASTER enters SYNC m ode. If you want to re -enter 3D shooting m ode again, need to config both MASTER and SLAVE camera again.
2. Press 8. Playback, then playback clips you choose;
3. Press “8. Playback” again, MASTER OR SLAVE will turn into 2D/Single operation mode.
3.12.3 Clip Name for Post Workflow
The clip names for two cameras, like following if y o u s et th e 3 D cameras appropriately:
! PRJ-0002-003-A1-5D8B.mov ! PRJ-0002-003-A2-5D8B.mov
They represent the Left eye clip and Right eye clip. You can copy both left eye and right eye clips into one folder without naming conflicts, and all the right eye clips are adjacent to the corresponding left eye clips naturally.
For the naming of clips in details, please refer to Section 4.1.

3.13 CONFIGURE CAMERA
Kine camera can set timecode working mode, body fan speed, warning of battery and shutter mode, etc.
NOTE: Turn on camera with any USB storage device plugged into USB socket of camera.
3.13.1 In-Camera Presets
In-Camera Presets are a set of parameters for recording and shooting:
! Resolution; ! FPS; ! Record Format;! ! Frame Size;
And there are four in-camera presets, and it provides quick switch for these presets: Multifunction Wheel"DOWN (3 push-button) twice to pop up the Preset Sh or tcu t lis t.
It is very convinient for shooting 4K and 2K HiSpeed, for different codecs.
The four presets of factory settings are following:
Resolution

3.13.2 TimeCode
Timecode is one of features of cinema camera. It shows time code in the LiveView and playback state:
! Timecode will be written into recorded clips. For Cineform RAW, the mov file contain a single timecode track; For KRW
and CinemaDNG, every single frame contains a specific timecode, and the generated mov will contain the timecode track
if you use KineStation to trans co d e th em.
! Besides, camera support two types of timecode:
$ Free run: TimeCode runs all th e tim e , n o matter recording or not, and the timecode will be emb ed ed into re co rded
clips;
$ Record run: TimeCode runs only when recording; and does Not run if liveview. Suggest s e t tim e c o d e to z e ro when a
new project begins.
Setting timecode mode:
CONFIG"System"Setting"TimeCode
Setting different timecode mode and initialize the timecode if chooing Record Run.
KineMINI does not support input of timecode.

3.13.3 Camera Fan and Core Temperature
1.#Core#Temperature#
Core Temperature is the real-time temperature of core processor, not the body te m p e ra tu re . It is show n in th e livev iew an d b otto m of CONFIG menu, so that it can be monitored by users. For KineMINI,
! If the core temperature reaches up to 70 degrees, the temperature in dic a to r will turned into yellow number. ! If the core temperature reache s up to 80 degrees , it will alarm and turn into red. It strongly recommend to cool camera
body or even turn off camera for safety, else it may bring permenant damage to camera body.
2.#Setting#Fan#Speed#
There are two fans inside the camera:
! One is core fan cooling the Core Processor; the fan runs quietly for most of time, and can NOT be set manually. ! The other is body fan cooling the whole camera body; the body fan can be set manually.
You can adjust the body fan speed (factory set to 30%): it can be adjusted from 15% to 100% according to the outside temperature, even turn off the fan.
CONFIG"System"Setting"Fan Speed
3.#Setting#Fan#Stop#if#Rec o rd #
If you enable this option, camera will turn off body fan if recording, and turn on body fan if stop recording automatically.
CONFIG"System"Setting"Fan Stop when Recording
For indoor interviews, and other quiet place required, it is very useful.
NOTE: When this feature is enabled, pay attention to core temperature in the UI, when recording.

3.13.4 Power Supply and Warning Indicator
1.#Power#Supply#and#Voltage#Threshold##
Since camera can be powered by:
! KineGrip: Replaceable Battery as 18650 battery; Durance time is around 60mins; ! Broadcasting Battery like Rolux 14.4V 130Wh Battery, through Power Cord: Durance is around Six hou rs ; ! AC adaptor power as 19V.
Camera can automatically recognize into two types power voltages:
! Battery Voltage: for KineGrip powering; Power voltage is less than 12V; ! DC voltage: for Broadcasting battery powering and AC adaptor powering, in case power voltage is over 12V.
Camera will monitor the power voltage all the time, and give warning (Red Voltage number, like 8.2V) if out of power, based on Threshold Voltage:
! Battery Threshold Voltage: If KineGrip power is less than it, like 8.5V, the camera w ill b e p o wered off at any time to
protect the battery. Factory set for the threhold is 8.5V; ! DC Threshold voltage: If DC power is less than it, like 12V, the camera will be powered of f at any tim e if powered by
Broadcasting large batteries. Factory set for the threhold is 12V;
WARNING: If recording Cineform RAW mov, and out of battery, the recorded clip will be corrupted probably.
You can set the the two threshold voltages based on your batteries, because useable voltage batteries change when using.
CONFIG"System"Setting"Bat Threshold Voltage or DC Threshold Voltage
2.#Dual#Power#Supplies#and#UPS#
Camera can detect two types of power supply, and show what power supply used, if two power supplies applied at the same time:
! If only KineGrip powering or only external broa dca sting ba tteries: camera use the only power supply. The voltage number
shown in the UI will be the power voltage at real time; ! If two power supplies at the same time: KineGrip powering and Br o ad c a stin g b a tter y. The camera will use the
Broadcasting battery power. And voltage number shown is the Broadcasting battery power voltage at real time.
NOTE: if dual power supplies at the sa me time, the KineGrip acts as UPS: can hotswap external Broadcasting battery.

4. FOOTAGES AND WORKFLOW
To remove SSD for post workflow: If you have to remove SSD when power on, press Multifunctional Wheel"UP (1 push-button) twice, and choose SSD management"Deactivate SSD to remove your SSD at first. Please ensure the SSD status is [id le (yellow) ]then get out the SSD fro m SSD Slot.
WARNING: We highly recommend you to power off your camera when insert or remove SSD.
To access Clips from SSDs on PC or MAC, a SATA to USB3.0 reader is needed to connect S S D and workstation or laptop:
! For MAC platform: access/copy/playback the clips in SSD directly, because SSD file format is HFS; ! For Windows platform: you need to install system plug-ins, such as HFS+ for Windows, MacDrive.
To playback Cineform mov files, you need to install:
! Quicktime7 can support Cineform no rendering real-time operations, which is better for you to use; ! Cineform Studio or Cineform Studio Premium must be installed to playback Cineform RAW files.
Always format SSD in-camera, not on MAC or Windows workstation.
4.1 SSD NAMING AND CLIP NAMING
4.1.1 SSD Naming
SSD stores the folders which includes clips and other accessory files. The folder name matches the setting of camera for shots in slate. The SSD will be named like A002_6D09A6 after SSD is formated in-camera. The name of SSD means:
! A: camera number; ! 002: Reel Number; ! 6D09: four char of camera SN; ! A6: two random numbers.
NOTE: Set scenes, reel number and take number to be 1. The reel number will be incremented after formating every SSD. And the reel number will be marked into the name of SSD.
When DIT, backup clips to RAID or TB disk, suggest make a new folder with same name as SSD name, and copy all the clips into the new folder, so that the reel number can be recognized easily.

!
4.1.2 Clip Naming
The folder name is nearly the same with clip name, just no file extention: for example, PRJ-0002-003-A2_5D8B:
! PRJ: Project name of clip. Default name is PRJ which can be renamed by CONFIG"Shooting"Slate; ! 0002: Number of Scenes; ! 003: Number of Takes; ! A: Number of Camera Group; ! 2: Number of Shots ! 5D8B : Random Number from time stamp and camera SN.
If record format is:
! Cineform RAW mov, then clip name is PRJ-0002-003-A2_5D8B.mov; ! KineRAW(.krw), clip contains a sequence o f fr ames, like PRJ-0002-003-A2_5D8B _ 0000001.krw; ! CinemaDNG(.dng), clip contains a sequence o f fr ames, like PRJ-0002-003-A2_5D8B _ 0000009.dng;
4.1.3 Other accessory files
Other accessory files:
! 0.bmp: a snapshot for clip, as the first fram e , 1 /2x 1 /2 re so lu tio n ; ! ***.look: monitoring LUT when reco rd in g th e c lip . It is .lo o k file which fits for Speedgrade, Cineform Firstlight; ! ***.cube: monitoring LUT when rec o rd in g th e c lip .

L01.wav, L02.wav: uncompressed aud io f ile; For KineMINI, they are same because KineMINI MIC is mono. ! Slate.txt: slate information which contains most of in f o rmation when shooting the clip, lik e sh u tte r sp e e d , IS O, highlight,
color temp, etc. ! 0.mt: internal camera information w h e n re co r din g .
Please send slate.txt and o.mt to Kinefinity if clip files shows abnormal.

4.2 KINERAW(.KRW) CODEC
KineRAW (.krw) codec, cinema-level codec is d e v elo p e d b y Kinefinity with great efforts and re so u rc e s:
! Average compression level is 3:1, lossless compression algorithm: it remains whole information of original image, there is
no color sampling and loss. The 240GB KineMAG SSD could record around 45 minutes 4K RAW clips with its date rate
close to ProRes422HQ; ! It can be transcoded into Cineform RAW mov by KineStation V0.6 or above if recorded clips are not HiSpeed mode, for
Cineform workflow; ! It can be transcoded into Cineform RGB444 mov by KineS ta tio n V0.6 or above if recorded clips ar e HiSpeed mode, for
Cineform workflow; ! It can be re stored to CinemaDNG by K in eS taiton V0.7 or abo ve if recorded clips are not HiSpe ed mode. So it fits for
CinemaDNG workflow; ! It really fits 4K, 5K, 6K recording and HiSpe ed reco rdin g, sa ves m uc h m o re sto rag e roo m , fo r easier d ata b ack u p.
KineRAW(.krw)codec may be supported by NLE or DI software directly in the future, with the increase of more Kine cameras.
KRW can be transcoded into following industry level codec(KineStation V0.7):
Cineform RAW
Cineform RGB444

4.3 CINEFORM BASIC OPERATION
No matter recording Cineform RAW directly, or recording lossless compressed KineRAW(.krw), even uncompressed CinemaDNG(.dng), you can use Cineform in post-workflow by trancoding function of KineStation.
The Cineform is cinema-level codec, as compressed raw using very high quality wavelet compression: visually lossless, and making work-flow much more efficient.
2K Cineform RAW/RGB444 footage can be always online meaning you edit your CineForm master files with your favourite post­production software tools – no proxy files, no conforming, and no specialised hardware.
4K Cineform RAW/RGB444 footage requires on workstation much more than 2K footage. For 4K re al-time debayer, it consumes much CPU and RAM of workstation. Generally, you may need offline/proxy files to edit 4K footages.
4.3.1 Cineform mov
To work with Cineform, you need install following software:
! GoPro Cineform Studio (free) or GoPro Cineform Studio Premium; ! Quicktime7.
Then you can playback, edit, grade Cinefomr RAW/RGB444 clips on nearly all NLE softwares like FCP, Premire Pro, Edius, Vegas and DI software like Davinci Resolve, Spee d g ra d e a n d S c ra tch.
Even ignore many unique and useful features of Cineform, Cineform mov files could be treated simply as H264 mov shot by DSLR or ProRes mov by Arri Alexa, because they share the same video container, when processed in post-workflow.
Mov video files do not mean a specific codec format, but means only video files capsulated QuickTime developed by Apple. Codec formats are not related to file exention like mov. Typically,
! Mov files shot by DSLR: codec as 8bits 420 H264; ! Mov files shot by Arri Alexa: codec as 10bits ProRes; ! Mov files shot by Kine Cameras (or transcoded by KineStation): codec as Cineform RAW or RGB444.
Cineform RAW or RGB444 clips shot by Kine Cameras (or transcoded by KineStation) are with gamma of KineLOG, like ARRI Log-C: the images show flat, low saturation if no LUT loaded.

4.3.2 Cineform Real-time Color Correction by Active Metadata
Cineform clips feature Active Metadata which is one of great features of Cineform codec.
It can realize non-destructive, real-time primary color correction for Cineform clips plus text, LUT, and tools overlays. Cin e fo rm Studio/Cineform Studio Premium works in parallel with your editing and effects software, and maintains color adjustments and image framing as Active Metadata with your media – all processed in real time so you never need to render, and c o n se q u en tly y o u never clip highlights. Cineform Studio/Cineform Studio Premium color adjustments are immediately visible in any application that calls a GoPro-CineForm file.
For Cineform RAW clips, debayer options can be applied in real time too; but Cineform RGB444 can not be applied debayer options, because RGB444 is debayered already from RAW data.
For fast workflow, you can do primary color correction, set debayer option and load LUT in Cineform studio , a n d g et th e re su lt in real-time in NLE software, th e n rend ers output in NLE software directly.
You can access official website (http://www.kinefinity.com/tutorial-cineform-raw-3/) to watch the tutorial.
NOTE: for operations on clips in Cineform Studio/Cineform S tu d io P r emium (Firstlight), you can use CTRL+C to copy one specific operation on one clips (like adjusted exposure, color tem p er a tu re , d eb a y e r o p tio n s, e tc .), th e n C T RL+V to apply the same operation on other clips.

4.4 PLAYBACK CINEFORM WITH LUT AUTOMATICALLY
One of very useful features of Cineform clips: When playback the cineform RAW clip, it can load the LUT automatically in workstation when recording by Kine cameras or KineStation, because there is LUT mark in the Cineform mov when recording.
That means you get two kinds of clips:
And you could also set the playback option without the LUT, then the clips comes back to clips with maximum latitude for more grading.
! Clips with LUT when recording: What You See on workstation is the same with What you saw on the mo n ito r when
recording. If you did right white balance and g ot rig ht e xp osu re, y ou do not need to grade the clips for quick workflow; ! Log Clips with maximum latitude which is also easy to be graded, if you set the playback option without th e L UT.
To realize the feature, it is different in Windows from MAC OS.
Windows OS#
You need to register the LUT at first in Windows to playback the Cineform clips with LUT:
! Double click the .look or .cube;
! Choose Lookinstaller App to install the look or cube file as the following image.
Do not need to register again for same LUT. Then playback the Cineform mov again, it will take effects on Quicktime 7 and any NLE software when editing.
If not playback with LUT, you can set playbac k op tion s as fo llow in g:
1. Right click the Cineform L OGO, pop up menu,;
2. Active Metadata–>Looks(3D-LUTs):
3. Marked to playback with LUT, Unmarked to playback without LUT (KineLOG image).

(*G!69:)! ! ! ! ! "#$%;#$#.<!'$=5! R-C%])!A!EF!
!
#MAC OS!
There is direct way to register LUT files into Cineform system on MAC. You need to install Cineform Studio Premium for register LUT.
1. Install Cineform Studio Premium;
2. Drag Application
!
Cineform/Firstlight to Dock;
3. Drag the LUT in the clip folder to Firstlight LOGO on the dock. Then it registers
the LUT to MAC. (Igno re th e F irs tlig h t if it o p e ns; an d d o n o t n ee d to re g iste r again for same LUT files)
NOTE: Cineform links the monitoring LUT when recording. When it playbacks on the workstation, it loads the LUT automatically if the LUT is registered before. Cineform RAW mov will not load LUT when playback if not registering LUT. It shows KineLOG image.
If not playback with LUT, you can set playbac k op tion s by clicking the Cine fo r m LOGO to choose LOOK option on the status bar on MAC.
If you did right white balance and got right exposure w h en sho oting , yo u ca n u se th e LUT to render outputs in NLE software directly. It requires monitoring with Kine709 or KineCo lor L U T w he n sh oo ting .
The following image is comparison between KineLOG image (Left) and image with LUT of KineColor2 (Right).

4.5 CINEFORM DEBAYER/DEMOSAIC OPTIONS
4.5.1 RAW and Debayer
Most RAW format cameras are single-sensor and use Bayer color filter arrays to create color. Bayer data cannot be viewed natively, so there is a key process as debayer/demosaicing to produces color images and details.
There is an option in the Cineform decoder (in Cineform Studio/Cineform Studio Premium) for users to choose debayer/demosaic option when it plays Cineform RAW into RGB444 video. The wonder of Cineform RAW for different Debayer option is that it is real­time, no rendering when ch o o sin g d iff e ren t Debayer options.
Generally speaking, Auto/Default debayer is a very simple, fast demosaic filter suitable for real-time playback and editing work, so the video seems not sharp an d n o t m u c h d e tails . S o it is NOT suitable for final rendered output. During editing, it is best to use simple or default Debayer option just because it requires the least CPU and RAM resource.
Think of the progression of Debayer/Demosaic options from Auto to CF Advanced Detail 3 as providing additional sharpening detail in your output RGB444 video. For rendering output after editing work, Advanced Details 1/2/3 as Debayer options are reommended to get more details and sharper.
For MAC, you have to set the debayer option in Cineform Studio Premium/Firstlight.
NOTE: For your own experimentation, evaluate different Debayer/Demosaic options during rendering to see what level of sharpening is best for your needs.
4.5.2 How to set Debayer Option
It is different to set debayer options in Wind o ws from MAC OS.
1.#Windows#
For windows, right click the Cineform icon in the windows system status bar;
Find the Cineform icon in the system status bar of Windows,
1. Right click the Cineform icon in the windows system status bar (Char C in red or blue color);
2. Pop up Cineform menu "Decoder Settings"Demosic Type"Advanced Details 1/2/3.

(*G!69:)! ! ! ! ! "#$%;#$#.<!'$=5! R-C%]]!A!EF!
!
2.#MAC#
You have to use Cineform Studio Premium (Firstlight) to set the Debayer option like setting LUT of Cineform.
1. Import the clips into Firstlight;
2. Set Debayer option to Advanced Details 1/2/3 in Debayer Filter box in Firstlight.
Then it takes effects when playback in Quicktime or NLE software.
NOTE: Debayer options only are effective on Cineform RAW clips, no effect on Cineform RGB444 or YUV422 clips. That means for clips recorded in HiSpeed mode and transcoded into Cineform RGB444 mov by KineStation, can not the Debayer options.

!
4.6 LOAD LUT IN DI SOFTWARE
Cineform clips can be loaded with LUT in three ways:
! Cineform clips playback with monitoring LUT automatically in workstation, because there is LUT mark in the Cineform
mov when recording; ! Besides the automatic LUT, you can also load other LUT or custom LUT onto Cineform clips in Cineform Studio
Premium(Firstlight) or Cineform Studio; ! Load 3rd-party or custom LUT in DI software, like Davinci Resolve.
4.6.1 Load LUT in Davinci Resolve
The path of LUT used by Davinci Resolve in Windows is following:
C:\ProgramData\Blackmagic Design\DaVinci Resolve\Support\LUT
In MAC system, the path is:
/Library/Application Support/Blackmagic Design/DaVinci Resolve/LUT
1. Make a new folder named like Kine, and
2. copy the LUT with extention of .cube into the Kine fold e r,
then restart Davinci.
3. Selection the clip, and choose the LUT shown in left
illustration.
4.6.2 Load LUT in Adobe™ AfterEffect™ CS5(or Above)
For CS5 AE (or Above),
1. Apply effect: Effect"Utility"Apply Color LUT, as shown;
2. Add LUT in popup dialog;
3. Load LUT added in the effect panel, as shown.

4.7 TYPICAL WORKFLOW OF CINEFORM
In short, you can process Cineform clips with max grading room, and but also the video you can use for quick workflow. Here we suggest five workflows, based on your platforms and the nee d s o n the f in al o u tp u ts .
1.#Quick#Workflow#using#LUT#or#Primary#Color#Correction#by#Cineform#Studio#
Platform: Windows or MAC.
1. Import clips into NLE software, and set LUT as monitoring L U T w he n rec ord ing ; and also yo u ca n u se Cineform Studio or
Firstlight to do primary color correction, or load other custom LUT: it takes effect in real time;
2. Set Debayer option to Advanced level after editing work, and render outputs.
NOTE: for operations on clips in Cin e fo rm Studio/Cineform Studio P re mium (Firstlight), you can use C T R L+C to copy one specific operation on one clips (like adjusted exposure, color temperature, debayer options, etc.), then CTRL+V to apply the same operation on other clips. And Firstlight also support FCP project.
2.#Typical#RAW#Workflow:#Conform#and#XML#netlist#
Platform: Windows or MAC; like RED RAW r3d workflow.
1. Import clips into NLE software like FCP;
2. Export XML netlist after editing job is done. XML links the original clips according to timecode in the same media pool for
grading software;
3. Import XML netlist generated from NLE software into DI so ftw are, the n g rad e the RAW clips from the same media library;
4. Rendering out to get final output.
NOTE: Davinci Resolve does not support active metadata and debayer option of Cineform.
3.#ADOBE#Suite#
Platform: Windows or MAC.
1. Import Clips into Premere Pro of CS6 or CC directly;
2. Using AE or Speedgrade of CS6 or CC to grade these edited clips, no need to generate an XML netlist as swap list.
NOTE: Adobe supports active metadata and debayer option of Cineform to get sharper images. And You can also use denoise plugin like DarkEnergy for AE to get most clean images, at the same time.

(*G!69:)! ! ! ! ! "#$%;#$#.<!'$=5! R-C%]F!A!EF!
!
4.#Based#on#Intermediate#Codec#PRORES#
Platform: MAC; Intermediate as ProRes.
1. Import Clips into NLE software like FCP to edit clips; (All NLE so ftw ares sup po rt A ctive m etad ata)
2. Export ProRes444 and ProRes422HQ after editing job is done.
3. Import the ProRes video into DI software, and grade it.
Actually, it is same with other ProRes workflow after it is converted into ProRes file. You can choose debayer option advanced details when exporting to ProRes to get sharper images.
5.#Based#on#Intermediate#Codec#Cineform#RGB444#or#YUV422#
Platform: Windows or MAC, Intermediate as Cineform 12bits RGB444 or 10bits YUV422.
1. Import Clips into Premere Pro of CS6 or CC directly ;
2. Use DarkEnergy plug-in in AE to do de-noise and output Cineform RGB444 or YUV422. (At same time, you could set
debayer option advanced details when rendering by DE), so that you get sharper and cleaner RGB444 video;
3. Grade the RGB444 video in DI software.
This workflow is intended to TVC with high requirements on image quality, but with low budget for front-end shooting. RGB444 is very close to RAW in the terms of grading room.
Note: you need to purchase Cineform Studio Premium to output Cineform 12bits RGB444, else 10bits YUV422.

It is normal for monitoring when panning, but reco rde d clip s do no t drop an y fra m e if us ing Kin eMAG SSD. ! Skipping frame on monitoring: monitoring signal from Kine camera is based on 25f p s p ro g re ss iv e (o r o th e r CMOS sensor
fps), not 50i; ! Skipping frame when playback on workstation: if recorded clips are 25fps, less than 30fps, the clips will show it. If
recording 50fps, and playback at 50fps, it will be much better.
