  HDX900 Zebra Issue

  Posted by Jeff Regan on October 9, 2008 at 11:27 pm

  My HDX900 has zebra 1 set for 70%, zebras come in at the correct 70 IRE, however, they everything above 70 IRE also has zebras. Zebra 2 is off. I normally have it set to 100%, but I’m not getting the different zebra pattern and because everything above 70 IRE has zebras
  anyway, they overlap.

  Has anybody seen this before with an HDX900?

  Thank you,

  Jeff,

  Zebra set only has one level, that at which the zebra’s appear. They do not have an upper “limit” so that any thing above your 70% setting will show zebra. This is proper, and the reason why I, and many others, set our zebra setting to 98 or 100, so that we essentially use the indicator as a warning of impending clip and overexposure.
