5-4. Expressing the gradation of an image (Knee, Gamma)
5-4-1. KNEE control
Due to bright sunny weather or lighting, “blown-out highlights” can sometimes occur, where bright
areas look completely white with little to no detail visible. This is a phenomenon caused by the
luminance signals that are out of the camera’s Dynamic Range (processing range). In order to
put such high-brightness input signals within the camera’s Dynamic Range, Knee function can be
used to compress the gradations.
