3.2.3 Waveforms
Waveforms, zebra stripes and histogram help cinematographers determine
the exposure of images. Waveform indicates the brightness of images over
the horizontal direction, while histogram shows the statistical information
on the brightness of the whole image.
The Waveform matches the images by default and shows the LUT NeutM.
Waveform will change according to the different LUT. Waveform without
LUT can also be checked by the menu operation.
You can choose different displays for waveforms:
LUT:
The waveform information displays the distribution of RGB,
which bases on RAW data after the processing of monitoring LUT
loaded.
LOG:
The waveform information display R/G/B three color channels
distribution based on the RAW data with KineLOG.
You can also choose a short waveform or complete waveform on the screen.
NOTICE
When over 100% on the waveform of LUT, images do not mean
overexposure definitely. The images are sure to be overexposed
only over clipping line on waveform with LOG.
When choosing to monitor the LUT, even if the waveform exceeds
100%, it may not be overexposed because the LUT is loaded.
NOTICE
Use [Zoom] button to check the exposure. Other functions can be
used normally when waveform is on.
The waveform remains when you use the [Zoom] button to check the exposure or use other functions.
3.2.4 Zebra Pattern
Zebra strip is a very straightforward feature to show the overexposed area in
an image.
For Kine cameras, the zebra calculation is based on RAW data: RAW data is
overexposed when the zebra stripes appears. So observe carefully to avoid
unintentional over-exposure in most cases, as it will be pure white in the post
workflow.
