Richard Burton Posted March 19, 2009 Share Posted March 19, 2009 I haven't worked with a 1500 for a while and couldn't find my notes on the hyper gammas. Can anyone give me the file names and what they represent? I think the order is #1 high con TV #2 Low con TV #3 High con film #4 Low con film, but I'd like to be certain. Thanks, Richard Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks, Richard Hi Richard, I haven't got the manual for the 1500 but this is from the PDW700 Manual (Same head as the 1500) GAM TABLE(HG) 1 to 4 Selects the hyper gamma type. 1: 325% to 100% 2: 460% to 100% 3: 325% to 109% 4: 460% to 109% TV being 100% and "Film"being 109% Highlights 2 or 4 lowlights/shadows 1 and 3......... actually I'm just starting to look a the best way to use this, do you find that HG washes out image particularly the blacks and therefore needs to be graded? Cheers, Brad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Richard Burton Posted April 2, 2009 Author Share Posted April 2, 2009 Sorry it took a while to respond. You're right, but to put it a little more simply: 1# Low contrast lighting TV 2# High contrast lighting TV 3# Low contrast lighting Film 4# High contrast lighting Film They do need to be graded, but you'll get much more range at both ends than shooting non H.G..
