[Avid-L2] Re: JVC DT-V24G1E gamma settings for Rec709

 

Go 2.35. That is the European standard. For more pain inducing information on the subject:

"Rec. 709 is written as if it specifies the capture and transfer characteristics of HDTV encoding - that is, as if it were scene-referred. However, in practice it is output (display) referred with the convention of a 2.4-power function display [2.35 power function in EBU recommendations]. (Rec. 709 and sRGB share the same primary chromaticities and white point chromaticity; however, sRGB is explicitly output (display) referred with an average gamma of 2.2.)"

From: <<http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rec._709>>

And if you want yet more pain, you can always go to Charles Poynton:
