Setting the S-Log
Gamma and Monitor
Image
When you install a CBK-RGB01 RGB and SLOG Output Option on a camcorder whose
software version is 1.1 or higher, you can use the
S-Log gamma and MLUT (Monitor Look Up
Table) features.
For details on the installation procedure, refer to the
Operating Instructions supplied with the CBKRGB01.
Using the S-Log Gamma
Sony-Log (S-Log in subsequent text) enables
imaging in abundant layers from shadow detail to
highlight by enhancing the dynamic range up to
800% to reduce blocked-out shadows and blownout highlights.
In conventional video shooting, image creation is
performed while observing the master monitor
screen on the spot. However, in recording on
negative film, the exposure is decided using a
light meter, and color correction is performed in
post-production for final image creation. The
wide latitude of negative film makes it possible.
While inheriting such workflow with negative
film, S-Log achieves the “Digital-Negative”
workflow optimal for digital processing.
S-Log EI (Exposure Index) mode
S-Log EI mode is a vailable with a camcorder with
software version 1.20 or higher.
This mode permits you to perform shooting by
selecting the ISO sensitivity in the range of 800 to
3200, using a light meter.
As the master gain of the camera is fixed in this
mode, increasing the sensitivity darkens images
for output signal. In the same manner as in
sensitizing recording with film cameras, the gain
is increased to the appropriate level in postproduction for images recorded dark. Although
the HD-SDI Dual-Link or 3G-SDI output images
become dark, recording with an appropriate level
is enabled by applying an LUT to the HD SDI
output, LCD panel indications, and images to be
recorded on an SxS memory card, depending on
the settings in EI mode.
Setting the S-Log Gamma and Monitor Image
17
Page 18
Increasing the gain in post-production makes the
S/N worse with high sensitivity, but the dynamic
range for highlight areas can be enhanced. As this
camcorder has superior S/N characteristics,
image creation with low noise is possible even in
high-sensitivity recording. While the S-Log
gamma of the camcorder is designed for
recording with ISO800 as the proper exposure, SLog EI mode is quite effective when placing a
higher priority on highlights.
To set to S-Log gamma
Select one of the following settings under “DualLink & Gamma Select” of the VIDEO SET menu:
—1.5G YPbPr422 & S-Log
—1.5G RGB444 & S-Log
—3G YPbPr422 & S-Log
1)
1)
—3G RGB444 & S-Log
1)
Available with a camcorder with software version
1.30 or higher.
Limitations of using S-Log gamma
• The S-Log gamma output is a special setting for
shooting, which is different from the video
gamma output. This setting is applied to all
videos to be recorded on the SxS memory card
inserted into the camcorder and those to be
output from all output connectors, including
Dual-Link output connectors.
• When S-Log gamma is selected, the following
functions are set to off:
— TLCS (AGC, Auto Shutter), ATW, Offset
White, Flicker Reduce, flare compensation,
linear matrix, Multi Matrix, Detail, Skin
Tone Detail, Knee.
• When S-Log gamma is selected, white balance
is fixed to Preset White, and auto white-balance
adjustment cannot be executed.
• When S-Log gamma is selected, the following
items are fixed to a specified value:
—Preset White: 3200K (switching between
3200K and 5600K with the 5600K CC filter
is possible)
—Black (master black level): ±0
—Black Gamma: ±0
—Low Key SAT: ±0
2)
The “S-Log White ADJ (R Offset, B Offset)” items of
the CAMERA SET menu permit you to adjust
individual variability of preset white (Software
version 1.20 or higher).
2)
Setting the Monitor Image
As an image using S-Log gamma has low
contrast, it may be unsuitable for image checking
at the shooting location. MLUT (Monitor Look
Up Table) converts the contrast of the image
recorded on the camcorder and the output image
except Dual-Link output (image output from the
HD/SD SDI, HDMI OUT i.LINK, or VIDEO
OUT connector) to produce an image suitable for
checking. Use MLUT when you shoot images
using S-Log gamma without any adjustments, on
the assumption that the images will be output as
Dual-Link output and recorded on an external
device to be processed to post-production.
Notes
• If the setting of “S-Log LUT Select” of the
VIDEO SET menu is other than “Off,” MLUT
is applied to images recorded on the camcorder.
• MLUT conversion does not affect Dual-link
output.
• MLUT can be used only for the output with SLog gamma.
The camcorder is provided with four preset
LUTs. In addition to the preset LUTs, LUTs that
the user has created independently can be loaded.
A user LUT must be created with
CvFileEditor
via an SxS memory card.
For details, refer to “CvpFileEditor V4.20 User
Guide.”
You can download the latest version of
CvpFileEditor from the“eCSite” software
download site for the professional and business
products of Sony Corporation.
Note
The camcorder supports user LUT data of RGB
10-bit format. LUT data of 12-bit format or
having different RGB values cannot be managed
by the camcorder.

Output formats of the VIDEO OUT connector
The VIDEO OUT connector outputs HD-Y
signals (when the SDI OUT or HDMI OUT
connector output is HD) or analog composite
signals (when the SDI OUT or HDMI OUT
connector output is SD) of the same format as that
for the SDI OUT or HDMI OUT connector.
When playing a clip recorded with PAL system when “Country” of the OTHERS menu’s “System”
is “NTSC Area” or “NTSC(J) Area”
Some frame may be repeated when the frame rate is converted.
However, a simplified playback signal is output
when playing a clip recorded with the system
different from that set with “Country” under
“System” of the OTHERS menu.
