Hi video tecnician...... Please help me fast i'm tired !!!!!! Ok! Let me explain.... Shooting with a classic Sony PD-170 is always a technical adventure... For this....Pd 170 is Digital OK ! but my monitor is a classic tube analog... I have to calibrate the monitor and I use an SMPTE signal OK ! But when I SET-UP my camera (o or 7.5) I remember this.... 0 IRE is the real black for digital world....7.5 real black for analog world. In the pd 170 menu this is not IRE but % ( o or 7.5 ). If I understand the signal on the ccd is DIGITAL but the signal from the RCA output ... is.... analog on my monitor !!! CONFUSION.... What is the best SET-UP ??? 0 or 7.5 ???. Looking at many books about digital cameras , the manufacturer (Sony) add 7.5 IRE to their analog output !!!!! Whats is the best SET-UP for shooting whit tis camera and whst is the best way to calibrate the analog monitor ?????? Thank you everyone Gabriel Rochette Canada, Québec

In low budget production witout weeks of test ...trial and error it,s a problem...BUT My trick is to put a magnificion glass (kind a magnifificion glass for retro projector system) between windows and actor. It,s verry good for sure but you have to find 2 of them cause the rain will be inverse if you use only one.. Conclusion... 2 magnifying glass ..and ...thats it... Gabriel Québec Canada

Thanks Michael.. I do some test this week Gabriel

If you looking carefully in the pd 170 set-up you will find the 7.5 and the 0 calibration..Thats ok!!! 7.5 is the standard for right broadcast black ...... and 0 is for stretch black...

What thats ????????????? OK... IRE ara IRE but the pd 170 set up indicate % not IRE... Please help me Gabriel Rochette Québec Canada
