Digital Vision, is showcasing, at NAB2005, the newest version of its Valhall Colour Grade system, V2.0, a complete realtime color correction system, with full primaries and secondaries, machine control and an ergonomic work surface. The Valhall control software also supports all Digital Vision DVNR options, including the new line of ME motion-compensated image processing systems.
The Valhall Colour Grade system is used in facilities all over the world to do restoration work and color correct TV shows, feature films and commercials. It is particularly well suited to environments that do not require telecine control, including restoration of library materials and processing of video-originated (electronic capture) program material, including sitcom, feature film, documentary or dramatic footage shot with the latest generation of 24P cameras.
It runs on a Windows XP Platform, and is a highly configurable, low cost and high quality environment for a wide variety of color correction, image restoration and enhancement applications, as well as provides a highly ergonomic, user-friendly interface that each operator can easily customize and manage.
Valhall Colour Grade supports the following image formats: 4:2:2 YUV, 4:4:4 YUV and 4:4:4 RBG in 525i, 625i, 1080i, 1080P and 1080PsF.
Version 2.0 new features include waveform monitor and vectorscope, three layers of primary color correction, true layer handling, user definable transfer functions (curves) and a dedicated vignette layer.
