STD-R709 Gamma Curve
E2.2 HG
Hypergamma. These advanced gamma curves are
designed to capture a wider dynamic range than the
standard gammas with only a small reduction in on
screen contrast (normally the higher the cameras capture
dynamic range the lower the on screen contrast will be).
This is achieved through careful addition of a gradual
highlight roll o. The dierent curves oer dierent
dynamic ranges and as a result should be exposed slightly
dierently to standard gammas for the very best results.
