Tips for Reproducing Vivid Colors
Under a Bright Environment
Preface
When shooting a bouquet using a spotlight,
the bright areas of the image can be overexposed and washed out on the screen.
This phenomenon can be eliminated using the camera s KNEE function, keeping the image s brightness (luminance) of objects within the video signal s dynamic range
(the range of the luminance that can be processed).
However, in some cases the KNEE proc-
ess can cause the image color to look pale.
This is because the KNEE function is also applied to the chroma signals, resulting in a drop in color saturation. For example, as shown in the Before setting image below,
the colored areas look paler than they actually are. In such situations, the bouquet can be reproduced more naturally by using a separate KNEE process for the chroma signals (R-Y/B-Y).
KNEE SAT LEVEL in the
