Chapter 4 Adjustments and Settings for Recording — Flash band compensation (FBC) function
Flash band compensation (FBC) function
The camera is equipped with a function for compensating and reducing band-like interference (called “ash band”) that occurs due to the MOS pickup
device when shooting in environments where ash strobe light such as that from still cameras is present.

Setting the ash band compensation function
Assign the ash band compensation function to the <USER> buttons (<USER MAIN>/<USER1>/<USER2>).
By pressing the <USER> buttons (<USER MAIN>/<USER1>/<USER2>) that are assigned with the ash band compensation function, the function turns
on, and ash strobe from a still camera, etc. can be detected and compensated.
For details, refer to “Assigning functions to <USER> buttons” (page 56).

NOTE
t When the ash strobe lights, the following phenomena may occur. These are due to the ash band compensation function and are not malfunctions.
- Moving subjects look as if they have stopped suddenly.
- The resolution when the ash strobe light drops.
- Horizontal lines appear in the video when the ash strobe lights.
Using the ash band compensation function
The ash band compensation function is activated when there are large changes in brightness at the bottom of the screen regardless of whether there
is ash strobe light. The ash band compensation function may be activated depending on the shooting environment such as where a bright window has
zoomed in and then out. So, we recommend use of this function in shooting environments where ash strobe lighting is anticipated.
Even if ash strobe lighting occurs, sufcient ash band compensation function effect may not be obtained in some shooting environments.
Flash band compensation function operation conditions
fThe ash band compensation function can be used under the conditions that the camera is in 59.94i, 59.94P, 50i, or 50P mode and neither of the scan
reverse, digital zoom, and digital super gain functions is operated.
fEven if the ash band compensation function is enabled, the ash band compensation function is forcibly disabled if the camera is changed to a mode
where the ash band compensation function cannot be used.
To use the function again, return to a mode where the function can be used, and press the <USER> buttons (<USER MAIN>/<USER1>/<USER2>) to
turn on the ash band compensation function.
The ash band compensation function is disabled once the power is turned off.
