Gamut Compression
The ‘gamut compression’ setting is enabled by default and allows you to choose whether you
want to compress and desaturate extreme colored highlights to stay within the display color
space as they approach clipping.
This setting will affect the image sent from your camera’s SDI and HDMI outputs as well as the
recorded files. When shooting using Blackmagic RAW the ‘gamut compression’ setting is able to
be adjusted in the RAW decode tab in the color page of DaVinci Resolve.
Turning this setting ‘off’ will allow colors to clip in a more saturated manner but can cause
some color fringing from strong saturated monochromatic light sources like LEDs in some
extreme cases.
File Naming Convention
Clips are always recorded to your USB-C flash disk using Blackmagic RAW. The table below
shows an example of the file naming convention:
A001_08151512_C001.braw Blackmagic RAW Filename
A001_08151512_C001.braw Camera index
A001_08151512_C001.braw Reel Number
A001_08151512_C001.braw Month
A001_08151512_C001.braw Day
A001_08151512_C001.braw Hour
A001_08151512_C001.braw Minute
A001_08151512_C001.braw Clip Number
When you are recording camera ISO files from an ATEM Mini ISO or ATEM SDI ISO model
switcher, the clips’ file name will be determined by the ‘record stream’ palette in ATEM Software
Control. This means that the files can be identified and linked when the ATEM project is opened
in DaVinci Resolve.
For more information, please refer to the ‘ATEM Mini’ or ‘ATEM SDI’ manual which can be
downloaded from the Blackmagic Design support center at www.blackmagicdesign.com/support
Monitor Menu
The ‘monitor’ tab lets you adjust status text, overlays, and other monitoring options for your
camera’s HDMI output.
TIP The SDI output on your Blackmagic Micro Studio Camera 4K G2 is always a clean
feed.
