Kona LH monitoring question
I’m color correcting a doc shot mostly in DV.
When done,I plan to take my drive to a post house
and master onto Digibeta.
When I choose options from the AJA Control Panel, there are
Component SMPTE
Component Beta
Which do I use to monitor my color correct?
Also in set up there is the options for Analog Black level.
7.5 IRE
0 IRE
Which do I use to monitor my color correct?
Thanks for your help. -

According to what I’ve read on other Cow threads regarding component-SMPTE or component-Beta, Beta is what’s used 99.99% of the time. Sony BVM (and some PVM) CRT monitors have a corresponding menu setting for component input type, i.e. SMPTE or Beta.
As for 0 or 7.5 IRE black level, the rule is:
NTSC (USA) = 7.5 IRE
PAL and NTSC (Japan) = 0 IRE

Thanks Alan.
Bob used to be set up all the gear years ago at a facility I worked for in NY.
He’s always been whacked in the best way.
