With the PMW-350 now starting to ship I thought I would dig out the settings I used when I did my 350 review. I created two scene files and the details are as follows:
File One: Aimed at giving high latitude with deep almost crushed blacks and the image well saturated and slightly warmed up.
Detail: ON Aperture: ON Detail Level: -15 Aperture Level: -10 Detail Frequency: +24
Matrix: ON Matrix (User): ON Matrix (Preset): ON Matrix (Prst) Sel: 6
R-G 1, R-B 12, G-R 2, G-B 11, B-R 0, B-G 0
Gamma: ON Gamma Table: STD Gam Table (STD): 5
Black Gamma: ON Black Gamma Range: HIGH Master BLK Gamma -24
Knee: ON Knee Point: 85.2 Knee Slope: -14
White Clip: ON White Clip Level: 109.0 (If will be graded) 104 (if not graded or for broadcast)
Master Black: -2
File Two: Aimed at giving maximum latitude with deep but not crushed blacks and vivid slightly warmed up colours.
Matrix: ON Matrix (User): ON Matrix (Preset): OFF Matrix (Prst) Sel: 1
R-G 8, R-B 10, G-R 0, G-B 15, B-R 5, B-G 6
Gamma: ON Gamma Table: HG Gam Table (HG): 4
Black Gamma: ON Black Gamma Range: H.MID Master BLK Gamma -28
White Clip: ON White Clip Level: 109.0 (If will be graded) 104 (if not graded or for broadcast)
Master Black: -3
Detail: ON Aperture: ON Detail Level: -15 Aperture Level: -10 Detail Frequency: +24
These settings were created on a pre-production PMW-350 so it would be wise to try them and look at them before using them in anger. All other settings are default or 0.
