High And Low Key Function - Sony PXW-FS7 Manual

High and Low Key Functions
The MLUT cannot show you everything that the camera is seeing, the camera is recording 14
stops of dynamic range where the MLUT can only show you a small amount of that.
The high and low key function can help with that but it must be assigned to a button. To assign a
button go to Menu > System > Assignable Button > Button 2 Auto Iris (change this as auto iris
does not work in CineEI mode)
Press assign button 2 once and the image darkens to show the highlight areas to check they are
not over exposed.
Press assign button 2 a second time and the image lightens for the shadows to check for under
exposure.
