Midtone Detail: When this parameter is raised, the contrast of regions of the image with
high edge detail is raised to increase the perception of image sharpness, sometimes
referred to as definition. When this parameter is lowered to a negative value, regions
of the image with low amounts of detail are softened while areas of high-detail are left
alone. 0 is unity. The range is –100 (minimum) through +100 (very high).
Lift: Adjusts the black point of the media, raising it or lowering it while scaling all
midtone values between it and the white point. Regardless of how you adjust this
control, all image data is preserved and can be retrieved in subsequent adjustments.
The range is –100 to +100.
Gain: Adjusts the white point of the media, raising or lowering it while scaling all
midtone values between it and the black point. Regardless of how you adjust this
control, all image data is preserved and can be retrieved in subsequent adjustments.
0is unity. The range is –100 to +100.
Contrast: Raising contrast reduces shadows and raises highlights, while leaving
midtones at 50 percent unaffected. Regardless of how you adjust this control, all image
data is preserved and can be retrieved in subsequent adjustments. 0 is unity. The
range is –100 to +100.
Use Camera Metadata
The most elemental camera metadata settings for exposure and color that are available.
Color Temp: Only available when White Balance is set to something other than As Shot.
Designed to alter the “warmth” of the image. Adjustable in Kelvin. Lower values correct
for “warmer” lighting, while higher values correct for “cool” lighting. +6500 is unity.
Therange is +2000 to +50,000.
Tint: Only available when White Balance is set to something other than As Shot.
Designed to alter the green to magenta balance of the image, for images with fluorescent
tinting. Lower values add green to compensate for magenta lighting, while higher values
add magenta to compensate for green lighting. 0 is unity. The range is –150 to +150.
Phantom Cine
The Phantom line of high-speed digital cinema cameras record wide latitude, high-gamut media
using the Cine Raw format.
Master Settings
These parameters let you choose the decode quality, white balance, color space, and gamma
that raw Phantom Cine clips will be transformed to use when debayered.
Decode Using: The option you select determines whether all Phantom Cine media
throughout the project is decoded using the original Camera Metadata settings (the
default selection), using Project settings in which you choose custom settings to be
applied to all clips, or using the Cine default settings.
Timecode: There are four types of timecode that Phantom Cine files can be set to use:
Set to zero: Camera timecode is ignored, instead using a simple frame count with
the first frame considered 0.
Time of day (Local): Time of day timecode recording.
Time of day (GMT): Time of day timecode recording based on Greenwich Mean Time.
SMPTE: Standard SMPTE timecode.
