For example, thanks to the histogram you can see if the image values are within the legal range, or if there is going to be clipping (clipping) in highlights or lowlights, thus losing the detail of the highlights. <\/p>\n<p>The audio meter comes with the &#8220;peak hold&#8221; function, with which we can adjust the audio levels for channels 1 and 2 whether we are using a built-in microphone or external audio sources.<\/p>\n<p>In addition, we have the indicator of the remaining recording time on the disc, which is automatically updated to ensure an accurate value even when the frame rate or codec is changed. When the disc is getting full this indicator turns red. <\/p>\n<p>According to the Blackmagic forums, camera sensor calibration has also been improved, with several reports indicating improved noise reduction patterns.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><a href=\"http:\/\/709mediaroom.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/blackmagic-4k.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-10701 aligncenter\" src=\"http:\/\/709mediaroom.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/blackmagic-4k.jpg\" alt=\"blackmagic-4k\" width=\"378\" height=\"212\"><\/a><\/p>\n<p>With this release, the company has lived up to its promise to release updates more often; and not only that, but it has also promised that in the coming weeks we will see these &#8220;heads up displays&#8221; on other camera models.<\/p>\n<p>Software version 1.9 is completely free and can be downloaded via <a href=\"http:\/\/www.blackmagicdesign.com\/support\/family\/professional-cameras\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">this link<\/a>.
