Display Modes: Zebras
Use Zebra mode to enable and adjust the upper and lower values for two (2) independent zebra indicators. Use Zebra 1 for highlight exposure, and use Zebra 2 for mid-tones or shadows. Zebras are visible in Magnify mode and are disabled by default.
The camera offers two (2) zebra types:
- Video: IRE-based mode; evaluates based on the current ISO and Look settings, and not the RAW image.
- RAW: Evaluates based on the RAW image.
For more information, see the Exposure with RED Cameras: False Color & Zebra Tools article.
