The CMOS image sensor of the PMW-F55
includes a frame image scan function that allows
you to shoot clear images without rolling shutter
distortion or flash band phenomenon that occurs
with a traditional film camera. The camcorder
adopts a color filter that emphasizes color
reproduction compatible with wide color area
(exceeding that of color film), allowing for near
human vision image representation capability.

Wide latitude, low noise

The camcorder has a 14-stop latitude that can
reproduce images captured by the CMOS sensor
with smooth gradation of black to white.
Exmor Super35 CMOS technology provides low
noise levels, even with 4K resolution and 14-stop
latitude maintained.

A wide variety of recording functions

The camcorder has the Interval Rec function that
allows you to record frames specified at regular
intervals and the Cache Rec function that allows
you to begin recording a specified number of
seconds in advance of the time that can be used
for variety of situations.

Video signal processing

4K/HD simultaneous recording and high-speed
recording with unlimited recording time is
possible with single LSI chip processing of both
camera signals and baseband video signals.
Single-chip design provides stable, high-speed
4K 59.94P baseband video processing, low power
consumption, and compact design.

Gamma curves corresponding to various
situations

The camcorder has a variety of gamma curves
corresponding to various situations.
S-Log2 and S-Log3 are equipped to cover wide
latitude of the camcorder.
The camcorder also has user gamma and hyper
gamma.
The user gamma can install and use the gamma
curve that is made by CvpFileEditorTM V4.2.
The hyper gamma can display the wide dynamic
range images in smooth contrast without using
the knee function. The PMW-F55/F5 provides the
following six hyper gamma choices:

Available hyper gamma choices

* Name format: “HG” + 3 digits of dynamic range value

+ the unit digit of white limit + “G” + video output
value with 18% gray card

You can select dynamic range from among 325%,
460%, and 800%. You can select 109% or 100%
for the maximum value of video output (White
Limit). You can select the video output value with
18% gray card from two values.

Compatible with the next generation wide color
range standard, ITU-R BT.2020

PMW-F55 is compatible with the next generation
wide color range standard, ITU-R BT.2020, and
you can select this when recording using XAVC
4K or QFHD.
As the above, you can select the SDI output of the
4K/QFHD signal.

Monitor LUT on/off function for each output

By dividing the video output signal (including the
internal recorded signal) into 3 types, you can set
Monitor LUT to on/off for each type
independently.
The camcorder has 5 types of gamma curve and 4
types of Look Profile for Monitor LUT preset.
You can also use any user LUT file that is created
by RAW Viewer.

Intuitive user interface

This camcorder has the color LCD panel on the
inside panel, and direct access menu that assigns
the commonly-used settings to 6 buttons.
Displaying the setting information large, makes
visibility better.
By switching four screens (CAMERA, FILE,
AU/TC, VIEW), you can perform setting speedy.
A LOCK switch allows you to prevent changing
settings by accident.
By using the supplied IFU-WLM3 USB wireless
LAN module, you can operate the camcorder
from a Wi-Fi compatible device such as a tablet,
with the wireless transmission.
