Thank you very much for purchasing the multi-purpose digital
camera.
Preface
This camera employs new 2/3q 1 million-pixel IT CCD [1280(H)k720(V)], realizing a com-
pact light-weight system including the optical system.
Also, the newly developed CCD having an IT configuration suited for higher picture quality
and the development of low-noise, high-speed amplifiers have enabled the realization of
high sensitivity, high S/N ratio, and wide dynamic range.
With the newly developed digital signal processing LSI mounted on the camera head, it
performs signal processing such as GAMMA, KNEE and DTL matrix, and CCD flaw correc-
tion based on a new system, intending to improve the maneuverability with multi-function,
high-quality, and high stability peculiar to a digital system.
Making the best use of the features of a small-sized self-contain camera, it is accommo-
dated in the camera housing and able to provide high-quality HD pictures as an multi-pur-
pose digital camera.
Features
New 2/3q 1 million-pixel CCD is employed.
[1280(H) k720(V)]

compact and light-weight.
≥ High sensitivity, wide dynamic range and
low smear are realized by CCD most
suited for high-quality pictures.
The camera section is equipped with a
high picture quality digital signal pro-
cessing LSI.
≥ High response and high resolution are re-
alized by driving H-CCD at 74 MHz.
≥ 10 Bit, 74 MHz high picture quality digital
processing after the process circuit.
≥ New type CCD flaw correcting function.
≥ High reliability, multi-function, and im-
provement of maneuverability are real-
ized.
≥ Max. +62 dB gain-up is possible.
(Memory addition, CCD pixel addition
mode included)
Multiple functions
≥ Multi-function DTL such as high-lumi-
nance DTL and skin DTL.
≥ Two HD-SDI output lines.
≥ Capable of coping with various variable
frames including 24P (option).
≥ Right and left, top and bottom picture re-
versing function.

Precautions
DON’TS
DO’S
≥ Do not attempt to disassemble the cam-
era or other units. In order to prevent elec-
tric shock, do not remove screws or cov-
ers. There are no user-serviceable parts
inside.
≥ Refer any servicing to qualified service
personnel.
≥ Handle the camera with care.
≥ Protect the precision made lens by plac-
ing the lens cap over when the camera is
not in use. If the lens is not installed, pro-
tect the surface of the prism by placing
the body cap into the lens mount hole.
≥ Do not abuse the camera. Avoid striking,
shaking, etc. The camera contains sensi-
tive components which could be damaged
by improper handling or storage.
≥ Use a mild blower or lens cleaning tissue
designed for coated lenses, to clean the
surface of the lens or prism in the event
that it should become dirty.
≥ Do not let the lens remain uncapped when
the camera is not use. If the lens is not
installed, do not leave the lens mount hole
uncovered.
≥ Use a dry cloth to clean the camera if it is
dirty. In case the dirt is hard to remove,
use mild detergent and wipe gently.
≥ Do not touch the surface of the lens or
prism.
≥ Do not use strong of abrasive detergents
when cleaning the camera body.
≥ Use caution when operating the camera
in the vicinity of spot lights or bright lights,
as well as light reflecting objects and sur-
faces.
≥ Do not aim the camera toward the sun,
no matter whether it is turned on or not.
≥ Do not expose the camera to rain or mois-
ture, and do not try to operate the equip-
ment in wet conditions. Do not operate the
camera if it becomes wet.
≥ Take immediate action if ever the camera
should become wet. Turn the power off
and have the unit checked by an autho-
rized service facility.
≥ Do not operate the camera outdoors dur-
≥ Follow normal safety precaution to avoid
ing a lightning storm.
personal injury.
≥ Do not use the camera in an extreme en-
vironment where high temperatures or
high humidity exist.
≥ Use the camera in an environment where
the temperature is within 32°F – +104°F
(0°C – +40°C), and the relative humidity
is within 30% – 90% (no condensation).
≥ Do not leave the camera turned on when
not in use. Do not unnecessarily turn the
camera power on and off repeatedly. Do
not block the ventilation slots.
≥ Always turn the power off when the cam-
era is not going to be used. Operate the
camera only when there is adequate ven-
tilation.
≥ Do not cover the port otherwise block ven-
tilation during operation. Internal heat
buildup can cause a fire.
≥ Cooling fan
There is internally provided a cooling fan.
Since the cooling fan is a consumable part,
replace it after about 50,000 hours of op-
eration.
(Be sure to ask the dealer for the replace-
ment.)

6
Adjust the black balance.
≥ This adjustment is needed when the
camera is used for the first time or af-
ter leaving unused for a long time.
≥ The adjustment is necessary when the
ambient temperature is greatly changed
or at the change of season.
≥ After adjusting the black balance once,
re-adjustment is not needed under the
same condition.
Properly adjust the light for the ob-
ject.
3
Adjust the flange back of the lens, the
iris and the focus.
≥ Flange back must be adjusted when
the camera is used for the first time or
after replacement of the lens.
Start shooting.
(After shooting, be sure to turn off the
power of each equipment connected.)
4
Adjust the white balance.
≥ This adjustment is needed when the
camera is used for the first time or af-
ter leaving unused for a long time.
≥ The adjustment is necessary when the
lighting condition or brightness is changed.
≥ After adjusting the white balance once,
re-adjustment is not needed under the
same condition.

How to Adjust
_ Flange back adjustment (for zoom lens)
The adjustment is to adjust the focus in all the range from the maximum zoom to the
widest angle of the zoom lens.
1 Shoot a dark object to open the iris.
2 Adjust the distance from the object to 6.6 ft. (2 m) at least, then loosen the flange back
fixing knob of the lens.
3 Set the lens to the maximum zoom and adjust the focus by turning the focus ring.
4 Set the lens to the widest angle and adjust the focus by turning the flange back adjust
ring.
5 Repeat adjusting the focus ring and flange back adjust ring until the focus is adjusted
within the zooming range.

How to Adjust
_ White balance adjustment
Adjust the white balance after shooting a white object by at least 50% of the screen.
NOTE: If the white signal level is over 100% or less than 50%, the white balance may not
be normally adjusted.
_ Color temperature and while balance adjustment (reference)
When carbon is burnt, it develops vari-
ous colors of light depending on the tem-
perature. Natural light can be specified
by color temperature reflecting to the
color developed when carbon is burnt.
The light of 3,200K (K=Kelvin, j273°C
equals to absolute zero temperature OK)
represents the same value (color) as
what develops when carbon is burnt at
3,200K (2,927°C). The relationship be-
tween the color temperature of the light
source and weather condition is indi-
cated in the right figure. Let’s study the
difference of shooting an indoor object
from shooting one outdoors. Studios are
usually lighted with incandescent lamps
and the color temperature of a white
object in a studio is around 3,200K. The
color temperature of a white object out-
doors is around 6,500K. The former may
look a little yellowish while the latter ap-
pears somewhat bluish when they are
shot by a camera. However, the human
eye does not recognize color differences
among these objects even under differ-
ent ambient lighting conditions, because
of their adaptability to light.

Color temperature values
The video camera reproduces color differences with high fidelity and the color of an
object somewhat different from what appears to the human eye.
Therefore, there is a need to adjust the white balance in order to correct differences
between color temperatures.
NOTE
Color temperature outdoors may vary depending on weather conditions.
16
How to Adjust
_ Black balance adjustment
≥ Adjust it with the lens closed.
When the motor drive lens is controlled from the camera, adjusting the black balance
causes the lens to be automatically closed.
_ Gen lock adjustment
When multiple cameras are used or the camera is combined with other equipment, it is
necessary to adjust the phase for phase matching by external synchronization.
≥ Horizontal phase adjustment
Observe the waveforms of externally synchronizing signal input (black burst signal)
and video signal output by a two-phenomenon oscilloscope, and make the horizontal
phase according to the camera menu.
Adjustment with H.PHASE of
SETTING menu
1 Roughly adjust the synchronizing
signal input and video signal output
phases by H.PHASE-COARSE.
2 Finely adjust the synchronizing sig-
nal input and video signal output
phases by H.PHASE-FINE.
