1-3-7. Chroma key adjustments
How the chroma key is to be defined can be adjusted.
Before proceeding with the adjustments, select "Chroma" as
the key type using the menu item below.
When ON has been selected as the sample marker
setting, "Chroma" is automatically selected as the key
type.

1. Key Type
As the chroma key, a key signal is created using a specific
hue as a reference.
For instance, the key signal is created by detecting the
colour of the background from the image of a person
standing in front of a specific background colour, and
another background is combined.
This unit uses an area system whose area is designated
by a rectangular frame. The result of averaging the colours
of the pixels inside that area is used as the chroma key
reference colour (key reference), and the maximum
deviation from the average value is used as the radius of the
chroma key oval.
Chroma keys faithful to the chroma space sample (area
in the figure) can be generated.

Press the OSD/TIME dial to sample the hue components of
the area selected by the sample marker.
When sampling is completed, the image obtained by
combining the chroma key with the PVW image is output.
(Set the PVW function of the key to ON.)
While the sample marker is displayed, direct operations
using the USER buttons and OSD/TIME dial are enabled.
Refer to "2-5-6. Direct operations using the USER
buttons and OSD/TIME dial" (<Basics> Operating
Instructions).
