Sony HDW 900 Montage- und Bedienungsanleitung

Colorimetric and Resolution requirements of cameras

Alan Roberts

ADDENDUM 1 : Sony HDCAM, HDW900

In boxes with numeric settings (e.g. –99~99), the values indicate the range, and zero means factory setting,

not zero effect, and no scales are given. For each item, the set value is given (if set), then the range offered

by the camera. Where two values are given, they are for film- or video-look, e.g. ON {f} OFF {v}.
