Editing the RAW video file
Important notes on
RAW output options
• Upon receiving RAW video output functionality, camera firmware will also be
updated to the latest available version.
• After the RAW video output is activated, other camera features will continue to
function normally.
• Some RAW video output specifications are subject to change with future firmware
updates.
• ISO sensitivity can be set from ISO 800 up to ISO 25600 with the Z 7II and ISO 51200
with the Z 6II.
• The following compensations are not applied to the RAW video file: Electronic
VR, Picture Control, Active D-Lighting, high ISO NR, vignette control, diffraction
compensation, auto distortion control and lateral chromatic aberration
compensation.
• The image is displayed on the camera monitor during recording, regardless of the
monitor mode setting. No viewfinder image is available.
• N-Log color is applied to the image displayed on the camera monitor. This does
not affect the video being output to the Video Assist 12G.
• The image displayed on the Video Assist 12G monitor also has in-device color
correction applied, and does not match the look of the final image after color
grading. Please refer to the Video Assist 12G manual for details.
• The “zoom in” function on the camera monitor is not available during RAW video
recording. It is possible to zoom in using the Video Assist 12G monitor.
• During RAW video recording, the image areas (angle of view) displayed on the
camera and the Video Assist 12G monitor differ. The image area displayed on the
Video Assist 12G monitor is equivalent to the recorded video.
• Available frame sizes, frame rates and image areas differ between the Z 7II and the Z
6II.
• Still images cannot be taken by pressing the shutter-release button during RAW
video recording.
• RAW videos can only be recorded to the Video Assist 12G. They cannot be recorded
to the in-camera memory card.
• If you experience any problems with other companies’ products such as the Video
Assist 12G, please contact the manufacturer.
For post-production, optional third-party software is required.
