Reference
. Lens le is used for compensating the deviation generated by switching the lens extender from OFF to
ON and for compensating the difference in the characteristics between lenses. This le is stored in the
camera. For electrical adjustments, mount the lens that is actually used.
. The reference le stores the custom paint data adjusted by the video engineer. This le is stored in the
camera and memory stick. Therefore, store this data in the memory stick rst before starting adjustment,
and restore this data from the memory stick after adjustment.
. OHB le is used for adjustment for the CCD block maintenance. This le is stored in the camera.
3-1-4. Maintaining the Grayscale Chart
It is preferable to use an 89.9%-re ective grayscale chart for electrical adjustments.
If a re ective chart is not available, use a well-maintained pattern box and a transparent grayscale chart
for adjustments.
Before beginning adjustment, set the illumination of the light source (or the luminous intensity on the
chart surface) properly proceeding as follows and set the color temperature to 3200 K exactly by adjusting
light.
