Switchable between 16:9 and 4:3 aspect
ratios
A simple menu operation provides instant switching
between the 16:9 and 4:3 aspect ratios. In 4:3 mode, a
screen equivalent to a 4:3 screen is obtained through
digital processing of the 16:9 video signals produced
by the WS CCD.
Wide-aspect ID signals
A menu setting is available to add wide-aspect ID
2)
signals to 16:9-mode video signals.
Automatic aspect ratio switching in
viewfinder
When the supplied viewfinder (DXF-701WS/
701WSCE) is used, the viewfinder scan size (16:9 or
4:3) automatically switches in accordance with the
aspect ratio selected for the camera.
For details, see pages 15 and 16.
White balance setting for color
temperature of 3000 K
Preset white balance settings are provided for color
temperatures of 3200 K and 5600 K. In addition, a
menu selection allows use of a preset white balance
setting for 3000 K. This feature facilitates shooting
under low color temperature light from for example,
incandescent lamps. It also facilitates color balance
coordination between this camera and those cameras
from other manufacturers whose preset white balance
values are only for relatively low color temperature.
See page 15 for instructions on how to use the menu to
select the preset white balance setting for 3000 K.
