Redo White and Black Balances

14. In this order perform a new white balance, black balance and white balance again. Note, if

AWB is not working, make sure WB is not on Preset. Select memoryA or B on the toggle

switch.

Confirm Low, Mid and High Settings

15. Confirm your Low, Mid and High settings in the Paint Menu. This sets the setting related to

the Low, Mid and High toggle switch positions. Matrix tableA and B are set to the same

settings. So, if you use tableA, B can serve as a back up if table A settings were changed and

you want to go back.

Gamma Settings

16. The Default Gamma is set to HD with master gamma set to .45.

17. You can change the gamma as desired using the Gamma menu found in the Paint menu.

18. For example, you want to match a VariCam V-Look, you can use one of the Filmlike Gammas

found in the gamma menu. Note, you can also adjust Gamma by using the master gamma

control. Higher number adds contrast, lower number lowers contrast. Note, this not the same

as a Filmlike gamma.

7

Knee Settings

19. If you shoot with HD Gamma, note that Knee has been turn off in this scene file. If you use

Knee control, make sure to turn it on and adjust as desired.

Matrix and Color Correction

20. If for some reason you want to turn off the matrix and color correction that was applied by the

scene file, this can be disabled in the Paint menu under Matrix and Color Correction.

Chroma Level

21. Chroma Level found in the Paint menu is a great tool for on-the-fly minor adjustments. For

example, if your talent is looking a little pale, add a touch of chroma to make them look better

on camera. It is also handy for MultiCam matching.

MultiCam Matching

22. While the provided scene file is designed to match with the VariCam and LT, other factors for a

good match is the gamma settings (contrast), chroma level, white balance and exposure. If all

of these settings are done correctly, then a very close match can be expected between these

different camera models. Happy Shooting☺
