False Color Modes: Video

To enable, go to Menu > Overlays > Tools > False Color and select Video from the False Color drop-down menu.

The Video tool displays a color overlay that indicates the video level of the RGB monitor path (calibrated to the SMPTE test signal). When enabled, the “V√” indicator displays in the Lower Status Row.

Colors are based on the RGB levels of the video out signal (that is, the “cooked” look, and not RAW data). The RGB settings affect the Video indicators.

The Video indicators represent the following IRE values (at all other values, the desaturated image represents the luminance value of the ISO adjusted image):

• Purple: IRE 0–4
• Blue: IRE 5
• Teal: IRE 10–12
• Green: IRE 41–48
• Pink: IRE 61–70
• Straw: IRE 92–93
• Yellow: IRE 94–95
• Orange: IRE 96–98
• Red: IRE 99–100
