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.

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

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. Lets 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.

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.
