3.7.4 ISO
ISO is a group of settings to capture light on the Sensor. ISO value of TERRA
4K is displayed at the upper right corner of the main interface. The default
setting is ISO 800, Highlight level (Highlight, that is from 18% gray to ADC
Clip) is 4.3 stops. TERRA 4K employs a whole-new, high speed &low noise
CMOS imaging sensor featuring with Dual Native ISO: 3200/800, which means
higher ISO and lower noise. No need to lower ISO when shoot slow motion. It
captures low-noise images with hight dynamic range in regular scenes or low-
light environment easily.
ISO Mode
Nominal value of ISO is ISO ASA, takes effect on the RAW data, and applies
different gain on the CMOS imaging sensor.
Change ISO: sensitivity and the image brightness are changed, while highlight
is unchanged. The dynamic range of 4K and crop mode is 13 stops, and
higher than 13 stops under sub S35 2K.
Highlight Stops
As the name suggests, more highlight stops means less shadows details. Less
shadows may mean more noise. If you want to retain more highlight details,
we suggest increasing to higher than 4.0 stops.
Change highlight Stops: sensitivity is unchanged, the image brightness and
dynamic range remain the same, but highlight and Shadow stops changed.
To set the highlight stops:
[ConfigurationShootingISO Highlight Stops],
choose from 3.3~5.6 stops.
Dual ISO
TERRA 4K is with Dual Native ISO: 3200/800, which allows it to capture low-
noise images with high dynamic range in regular scenes or low-light
environment very easily. When highlight level is 4.3, the native ISO for range
from 320 to 1000 is on 800 base, and on 3200 base for range from 1280 to
higher ISO.
