What do manufacturer documents say about the vectorscope 'skin tone' line, and where is it documented or not documented?
Partially verified: the curator re-read none of the cited sources; S10, S11, S8, S2 rest on the producer's pinned reading. Of the first-party documents retrievable here, only the Blackmagic SmartScope manual describes the line: keep warm skin saturation along a line 'approximately' at 10 o'clock on the vectorscope, called the 'fleshtone line', which it says is based on blood colour and applies to all pigmentations. That is a vendor statement; this candidate records no independent test of it. Tektronix WFM5200, 1740A and the Tektronix application note have no skin/flesh text, the ITU Recommendations read have none, and the Resolve 19 guide only adds a Skin Tone vector to ColorSlice (not a scope marker). The Resolve reference manual and Leader manuals were unavailable.
