[BT.709 Normal / BT.709], [BT.709 Standard / BT.709]
Combination of gamma curve and color space settings that affects the overall look and color space of
the image.
Gamma curve
[Canon Log 3]: Logarithmic gamma curve that keeps the characteristics of the [Canon Log] setting
while expanding its dynamic range. Requires image processing in post-production.
[PQ]: HDR (high dynamic range) gamma curve compliant with the PQ standard defined by ITU-R
BT.2100.*
[HLG]: HDR (high dynamic range) gamma curve compliant with the HLG standard defined by ITU-R
BT.2100.*
[BT.709 Wide DR]: Gamma curve with a very wide dynamic range. Optimized for playback on BT.709
compliant monitors. Equivalent to the [Wide DR] setting in previous camera models.
[BT.709 Normal]: Gamma curve that produces darker dark areas and reduced contrast in the
highlights, compared to the ITU-R BT.709 standard. Optimized for playback on BT.709 compliant
monitors. Equivalent to the [Normal1] setting in previous camera models.
[BT.709 Standard]: Gamma curve that meets ITU-R BT.709 standards, for playback on BT.709
compliant monitors. Equivalent to the [Normal 3] setting in previous camera models.
* ITU-R BT.2100 is a standard for a color bit depth of 10 or 12 bits. When the video
configuration is set to one of the 8 bit color options, the gamma curve is approximately
equivalent to this standard.
Color space
[C.Gamut]: Color space developed by Canon based on the specific characteristics of the camera’s
imaging sensor. It covers a wider color gamut than that of BT.2020.
[BT.2020]: Color space that meets ITU-R BT.2020 standards, which defines parameters for ultra-
high-definition television (4K/8K).
[BT.709]: Standard color space that is compatible with sRGB specifications.
[Color Matrix]
1
[Neutral], [Production Camera], [Video]
The color matrix affects the overall color tonality of the image.
[Neutral]: Reproduces neutral colors.
[Production Camera]: Reproduces colors more suitable for motion picture production.
[Video]: Reproduces colors with a contrast suitable for TV broadcasting.
[Look File]
1
[On], [Off]
Image quality adjustments set in the Look File will be applied.
[Look File Setup]
1
[Register] Registers a Look File (.cube format) to a custom picture file.
[Delete] Deletes a Look File registered to a custom picture file.
[HLG Color]
1
[BT.2100], [Vivid]
Changes the quality of color reproduction when using the hybrid log gamma (HLG). This setting is
only available when [Gamma/Color Space] is set to [HLG / BT.2020].
[BT.2100]: Color reproduction according to ITU-R BT.2100 specifications.
[Vivid]: More saturated color reproduction according to the 'Traditional Colour' approach in ITU-R
BT.2390.
