Filter Configuration Submenu ■ False Colors The V-MD702 has a false color filter to aid in the setting of camera exposure. As the camera Iris is adjusted, elements of the image will change color based on the luminance or brightness values. This enables proper exposure to be achieved without the use of costly, complicated external equipment. To best utilize this feature, you must understand the color chart below and have a basic understanding of camera exposure.
■ Mosquito Filter Use this setting to filter out “Mosquito Noise” – an artifact that appears as specs around edges of objects. This artifact is the result of video that has been compressed at some point. Video sources from DVD-Players, PDA’s, Digital Cable Boxes, Camcorders, etc. often have this artifact.
