Setting the Gain
If the gain of the video amplifier of the unit is to
be switched using the gain switch of the RM-
B150 Remote Control Unit, the gain values for
the corresponding switch positions must be
specified in advance.
Use the <GAIN ASSIGN> page of the Camera
>USER (OPERATION) menu.

Setting
GAIN [L]
Gain value corresponding to the L
position of the gain switch
GAIN [M]
Gain value corresponding to the M
position of the gain switch
GAIN [H]
Gain value corresponding to the H
position of the gain switch
SHOCKLE SS
Shockless gain on or off
GAIN
Any of –6, –3, 0, 3, 6, 9, or 12 dB can be set for
each of the L, M, and H positions, in any
sequence.
Note
The gain value is fixed to 0 dB in Cine-EI mode.
Relationship between dynamic range and gain
The dynamic range determined by the gain setting
on the unit is the same for all formats at 460% for
0 dB or lower and 800% for 6 dB or higher.

luminance. In such cases, however, the S/N (noise
in dark areas) will decrease due to the inverse
relationship between the dynamic range and the
S/N. If you want to prioritize the S/N, configure
the gain setting so that the dynamic range is
460%.
