How to set the Zebra pattern.

Press [MENU / SET] → [Custom] → [Monitor / Display] → [Zebra Pattern]
  • For Model DMC-GF7: Press [MENU / SET] → [Custom] → [Zebra Pattern]

Zebra Pattern Menu Options

  • [ZEBRA1]
    • Diagonal stripes going towards the upper right that indicate parts that may become overexposed in a zebra pattern.
  • [ZEBRA2]
    • Diagonal stripes going towards the lower right that indicate parts that may become overexposed in a zebra pattern.
  • [OFF]
  • [SET]
    • Sets the minimum brightness level for each zebra pattern.
 

Select a brightness value using [SET]

  • You can select a brightness value between [50%] and [105%]. In [Zebra 2], you can select [OFF]. If you select [100%] or [105%], only the areas that are already white saturated are displayed in a zebra pattern. The smaller the value is, the wider the brightness range to be processed as a zebra pattern will be.
 

Notes

  • If there are any white saturated areas, we recommend compensating the exposure towards negative referring to the histogram and then taking the picture.
  • Displayed zebra patterns will not be recorded.
  • If you assign [Zebra Pattern] to [Fn Button Set] in the [Custom] ([Operation]) menu, each time you press the function button to which the setting is assigned, the zebra pattern toggles as follows:
    • [ZEBRA1] → [ZEBRA2] → [OFF]
    • When [ZEBRA2] is set to [OFF], the setting toggles in the order of [ZEBRA1] → [OFF], allowing you to switch the setting quickly.
