When they\u2019re used indoors and \u2018on-camera\u2019 at lower brightness, it can result in an unavoidable reduction in effective bit depth, leading to visible artefacts like banding and loss of detail, especially in dark areas of the image.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">UP TO 78 BITS PER PIXEL COLOUR PROCESSING<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Dark Magic helps to alleviate these issues by processing the video signal at up to 26 bits per channel (78 bits per pixel) within the Tessera R2+ receiver card.<a href=\"https:\/\/www.bromptontech.com\/features\/dark-magic\/false\"><\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-media-text is-stacked-on-mobile is-vertically-aligned-center\" style=\"grid-template-columns:44% auto\"><figure class=\"wp-block-media-text__media\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"698\" height=\"639\" src=\"https:\/\/www.futureevents.gr\/foc\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/darkmagic-brompton-candle.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-1717 size-full\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.futureevents.gr\/foc\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/darkmagic-brompton-candle.png 698w, https:\/\/www.futureevents.gr\/foc\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/darkmagic-brompton-candle-300x275.png 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 698px) 100vw, 698px\" \/><\/figure><div class=\"wp-block-media-text__content\">\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The effective bit depth of the output can then be increased, resulting in a clearer, smoother image with enhanced detail in darker areas, even when the LED panels are at very low brightness.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Compare the two photographs of identical LED panels displaying a low-brightness image.
