- Dynamic Range Stretcher: Suppresses blocked shadows and blown highlights to achieve a visually wide dynamic range.
- Advanced Flash Band Compensation.
- Select from 7 Gamma curves.
- Image adjustments include: H Detail, V Detail, Detail Coring, Skin Tone Detail, Chroma Level, Chroma Phase, Master Pedestal, Knee, Matrix (NORM1/NORM2/FLUO/CINE-LIKE), High Color, White Clip.
- The Scan reverse function allows you to horizontally or vertically flip your recording/display.
- 2x/4x digital zoom
- Slow shutter and Synchro scan function

AVC-ULTRA Codec Family
AVC-Intra: An intra-frame compression method that is highly suited to image production, AVC-Intra100/50.
AVC-LongG: An intra-frame compression method that is ideal for providing on-air content direct from the shooting location and for workflows that use content transferred over the internet. Three bit rates are available: AVC-LongG50/25/12 Mbps. AVC-LongG25 provide 10 bit/4:2:2 quality at a bit rate of approximately 25 Mbps
AVC-Proxy: Low-bit-rate, high-resolution, high-sound quality proxy video (Quick Time/H.264) includes metadata for efficient offline editing that can later be used to conform that original master files.
