Introduction

Features

The AJ-HDC27H is a camera-recorder that supports

the SMPTE-296M 1280a720 scanning standard.

Integrated in this single unit are an HD color video

camera featuring a 1-million pixel IT-CCD unit with on-

chip lens as the pickup device, and a DVCPRO HD

format VTR incorporating the latest compression

technology.

The camera unit supports a variable frame function

and film tone gamma function, and it also supports the

Ultra Prime lenses for 35 mm film cameras as a

standard feature.

Featuring a 100 Mbps recording rate for the VTR as

well, this unit is capable of recording images with an

extremely high picture quality to achieve the highest

performance and most sophisticated functions as an

integrated camera-recorder for electronic field

production (EFP) applications.

Furthermore, it is compact and lightweight, has low

power consumption, and excels in achieving a high

level of picture quality, sensitivity, and mobility, and is

extremely dust-proof and moisture-proof. These are

all attributes which enable the unit to be used for

electronic news gathering (ENG) applications as well.

Since digital signal processing is provided in both the

camera unit and VTR unit, the picture quality is further

improved while the unit’s stability is also enhanced.

SD memory cards meeting global standards can be

used for the camera and VTR setting data as part of a

system which can accomplish data management.

Features of the camera unit

The camera unit of the AJ-HDC27H has the

following features.

O High sensitivity: 2000 lx, F11, 24P mode, shutter

speed set to 50% of frame rate

O Frame rate: 4 fps (frame/sec.) to 60 fps

O High signal-to-noise ratio: 54 dB (standard)

O Low smear

O Low flare

O Scan reverse

O Switchable frame frequency: 59.94 Hz or 60.00 Hz

O 12-bit analog-to-digital converter incorporated

O Two HD SDI output lines

Variable frame rate

Frame-drop (under-cranking) shooting and high-speed

(over-cranking) shooting, which are special film

shooting techniques, have been achieved for the first

time in a video camera.

The variable frame rate function can be set as desired

from 4 fps (frame/sec.) to 60 fps.

The shutter speed can also be set from 0.8% of the

frame rate (aperture angle: 3 degrees) to 97.2%

(aperture angle: 350 degrees), enabling full use to be

made of many different presentation techniques.

Along with continually recording at 60 fps, the VTR

unit enables specific effective frames alone to be

marked with time codes so that off-line editing using a

conventional DVCPRO HD VTR is possible. This

makes it possible to construct a 24 fps production

system with minimal equipment investment.

Film tone gamma function

In the beginning, the first and foremost aspect defining

the manifold powers of expression that only the

medium of film could achieve was the extent of a

film’s latitude (reproduction range). What Panasonic

did was to use its resources to develop an exclusive

gamma curve for reproducing film tones by means of

the CCDs, and this led to the capability of expressing

natural gradations and reproducing a rich variety of

colors—something that was beyond the means of

conventional video cameras. The AJ-HDC27H

incorporates a total of three gamma curves—two cine

curves (for films/for videos) and the conventional

video gamma curve—and it enables the curve that

best suits the application at hand to be selected. The

powers of expression achieved as a result are

comparable to those provided by film. The high

sensitivity that is simply superior to film cameras

delivers an excellent balance between brightness and

high picture quality: indeed, the kind of sensitivity that

corresponds to ISO640 enables shooting with the

same kind of feel as ultra-fine-grain films.

When the conventional video gamma curve is to be

used, set the unit to the video mode using the CAM

MENU SEL item on the OPTION screen of FILM

(CAM) MAIN MENU 4.

When one of the cine curves is to be used, set the unit

to the film mode using the CAM MENU SEL item on

the OPTION screen of FILM (CAM) MAIN MENU 4,

and then select the desired curve by setting the CINE

GAMMA SEL item on the GAMMA screen of FILM

MAIN MENU 1.

Features (continued)

Features of the camera unit

Prime lens mode

Not only the lens that does justice to the sensitivity

equivalent to a film but also the various devices and

equipment that are peripheral to the camera combine to

play roles which are so critical that they cannot be

divorced from the technical skills of the person operating

the camera. Using an HD lens adapter made by

Angenieux, this unit supports the ultra-prime lenses used

for film cameras as a standard feature. What’s more,

Panasonic has achieved an industry first by incorporating

as a standard feature, a scan reverse function, which

cancels out image reversal occurring when the adapter is

used, and switching can be easily accomplished by a

menu setting.

The unit also supports slide bases, matte boxes and

other film camera equipment which users may have been

using for years.

A full range of long viewfinders, small LCD monitors and

other options available from related manufacturers is

available, and the maximum can be derived from formats

ranging from films to HD with the same ease afforded by

simply changing the main camera unit.

Film user menu

Panasonic does its best to cater to film camera users not

only on the functions and performance front but also in

terms of operation.

For instance, it has provided a cinema image menu

(FILM USER MENU) which brings together on one page

the setting items that are frequently used in location

cinema shooting.

Along with the gamma curve selection and scan reverse

ON/OFF functions, the settings for the hard and soft

texture adjustments, gradation settings for the shadow

areas, latitude adjustments, and tungsten lighting

(3200K) type or daylight (5600K) type can be selected

just like with films on one menu screen.

Digital signal processing

Analog signals are converted into digital signals through

12-bit A/D conversion at a sampling frequency of

74.1758 MHz (59.94 Hz)/74.25 MHz (60.0Hz).

This processing not only enhances the picture quality,

stability and reliability but it also enables the viewfinder

screen displays and many of the adjustment and setup

items to be configured in a menu-driven format.

4-piece filter disc sets available as standard

accessories

The filter best suited to the subject’s brightness and color

temperature can be selected. Two independent sets of

filter discs, one for CC and one for ND, each with four

filter discs, are provided as standard accessories.

Camera unit equipped to capture a wide range of

image creation activities from cinema production

to broadcasting applications

O A sensitivity of F11 (2000 lx) achieved by the three

highly sensitive CCDs.

The minimum subject brightness is 0.7 lx.

O Gamma curves (switchable) for reproducing film

tones.

O Not only a natural choice like 24 fps (frame/sec.) for

films but also any number of shooting frames from

4 fps to 60 fps can be set.

O Digital setup for controlling image production using

numerical values and for simple operation using the

jog dial and gradation menu.

O Cinema image menu provided for film producers.

O Setup data in up to 8 files can be stored on an SD

memory card.

O Built-in high picture quality circuits including auto

knee, many different detail functions, shading

compensation, 12-axis color compensation circuit

and masking circuit.

O Built-in 2-level zebra pattern and spot zebra

functions.

O 3 values among the 10 possible settings from –6 dB

(–3 dB in film mode) to +30 dB allocated to the gain

selector; also, the gain can be increased up to +36

dB by the super gain function.

O The following functions can be allocated to the

USER1 and USER2 buttons: super iris, super gain,

super black, black stretch, audio CH1/CH2 input

front/rear switching, recording start/stop, return

switch, and Y GET (output luminance level

measurement), frame rate switching.

O An electronic shutter with a variable function

over and above the 6 shutter speeds.

O Tungsten lighting (3200K) type or daylight (5600K)

type can be selected just like with films on one

menu screen. Two sets of ND&CC optical filters

Features of the VTR unit

Digital system

The pictures are compressed by a component digital

recording system that uses the latest compression

technology while non-compression PCM recording

featuring excellent signal-to-noise ratio, frequency

band, waveform characteristics and reproduction of

detailed areas is employed for the sound. The result

is an even higher picture and sound quality.

Power saving management (SAVE REC) function

When the VTR unit is used for recording, the playback

system circuitry can be shut down, making it possible

to perform operations with a lower power

consumption.

Scene-to-scene continuity

Simply by pressing the VTR START button or lens

VTR button, continuity between the scenes is

obtained at a precision of 0 to +1 frame.

Rec review function

The last 2 to 10 seconds of a recording are

automatically rewound and played back to enable the

user to quickly check what has been recorded.

Playback function

This function enables the playback picture (in black

and white) to be viewed on the viewfinder screen.

Color playback pictures can be output from the HD

SDI MON connector.

Built-in time code generator/reader

The same or separate time code information can be

recorded on the dedicated sub-code track and video

AUX area, and played back.

External locking of time code

The built-in time code generator can be locked to an

external generator. A lithium battery is used as the

backup power supply of the built-in time code

generator to back up the memory data for about a

year even when no power is supplied to the unit.

Tape management information

As the tape management information, this unit

automatically saves the frame rate information on the

shooting speeds, the active frame information on the

first frame where the frame image was switched, and

the active frame count information in the user bits of

the sub-code track area (which used to be the LTC

area).

Built-in DOLBY NR system

The cue audio recording circuitry contains a Dolby B

noise reduction circuit.

Audio functions

O A phantom power supply type of microphone

(optional accessory) with sharp directivity

characteristics can be attached. It can also be

detached from the unit for use as an interview

microphone.

O Other kinds of microphones can also be connected

and, using the model AJ-MH800G microphone

holder (optional accessory), attached to the unit.

NEWS REC function

This function especially supports shooting in the

context of news gathering or documentary filming to

ensure that no opportune shutter opportunities are

passed up.

In other words, by controlling the start key

acknowledgment time, the unit can continuously

record without the user having to interrupt the

recording: this safeguards against the failure to record

those precious moments—a failure that occurs when

recording is resumed after it has been shut down

temporarily.

RETAKE function

This function is for not leaving behind superfluous cuts

when a cut turns out to be no good during the

shooting of news, reports or art programs.

Users should remember to handle this function very

carefully.

If there is enough leeway in the shooting time and a

particular cut is clearly judged to be no good, the tape

is rewound to the start of the cut concerned and the

rec pause (rec standby) mode is established by

operating the MODE CHECK button and lens RET

button. Since recording is now commenced from that

point on the tape, the no-good cut will be deleted. In

order to prevent the cut prior to the no-good cut from

being deleted, a part of the no-good cut equivalent to

ten or so frames is left behind.

By cutting down on the time taken for copying onto the

work tape, for instance, this function is very effective

in achieving economical operation.

INTERVAL REC function

This function makes simple interval shooting possible.

It proves to be very effective when shooting programs

with a nature theme or art programs.

Adjusting the lens flange

If the subject is not focused properly in the telephoto

and wide-angle modes during zoom operations, adjust

the flange back (distance from the lens mounting

surface to the image-forming surface).

Once this adjustment is done, it need not be redone

unless the lens is replaced.

Adjustment method

Attach the lens to the camera.

At this stage, do not forget to connect the lens

cable.

Set the lens aperture to manual and open the

aperture.

Set the lighting in such a way that the appropriate

video output level is achieved at a distance of

about 3 meters away from the chart used for the

flange back adjustment.

If the video level is too high, use the filters and

shutter.

Loosen the screw securing the F.f (flange focus)

ring.

<Note>

On some lenses, this may be marked as F.b

(flange back) ring.

Set the zoom ring to the telephoto position either

manually or electrically.

Shoot the chart used for the flange back

adjustment, and turn the distance ring to adjust the

focus.

Set the zoom ring to the wide-angle position, and

turn the F.f ring to adjust the focus.

Take care not to move the distance ring during this

process.

Tighten the screw securing the F.f ring.

Adjusting the white shading

This unit comes with a function for storing white

shading adjustment values. Up to eight of these

values can be stored in the internal memory.

Alternatively, they can be stored on an SD memory

card.

Using this data, it is possible to quickly reproduce the

appropriate white shading adjustment even after

switching lenses.

<Notes>

O The method below can be used for the white

shading adjustments with most lenses. However,

with some very special lenses, a different

adjustment method may be necessary.

O Even when the white shading has been adjusted,

tinting may occur in the vertical direction near the

lens aperture open position. This is a phenomenon

which is inherent to lenses and optical systems and

is not indicative of malfunctioning.

Storing white shading adjustment values

Adjusting the white balance

Set the switches as shown in the figure.

FILTER control

WHITE BAL: A or B

OUTPUT: CAM

GAIN: Normally 0 dB

Set to a more suitable gain level if it is

too dark.

When the GAIN and WHITE BAL switch settings

are changed, messages advising the user of the

set positions appear on the setting change

message display of the viewfinder screen.

(However, this happens only when “3” has been

set as the display mode.)

Select the FILTER control setting in accordance

with the lighting conditions.

O For examples of the FILTER control settings,

refer to the description of the FILTER control

(page 14) in the “Shooting (recording)/playback

function section.”

When the FILTER control setting is changed, a

message advising the user of the set positions

appears on the setting change message display

of the viewfinder screen. (However, this

happens only when “3” has been set as the

display mode.)

A better picture can be achieved by adjusting the

white balance and black balance in the following

sequence: AWB (white balance adjustment) 5 ABB

(black balance adjustment) 5 AWB.

There is usually no need to re-adjust the black

balance even when the power has been turned off

and back on.

The white balance must always be re-adjusted when

the lighting conditions have changed.

If the display mode is set to “2” or “3,” messages

advising the user of what progress has been made in

the adjustments and what the adjustment results are

appear on the viewfinder screen when the black

balance or white balance adjustment is commenced.

Set the display mode to “1” if these messages are not

to be displayed.

O For details on the display mode settings, refer to

“Display modes and setting change messages”

(page 48).

<Notes>

O ABB must be performed when the MASTER GAIN

levels have been changed on the LOW SETTING,

MID SETTING and HIGH SETTING screens of the

FILM (CAM) MAIN MENU 1, when the super gain

setting has been changed using the USER button,

and when the GAMMA (ON/OFF) has been

switched on the CAMERA SETTING screen.

O With artificial lighting—particularly fluorescent lights

and mercury lamps—the luminance may appear to

be constant but the intensity of the R, G and B

colors will change in synchronization with the power

line frequency. Especially in regions with a 50 Hz

power line frequency, mutual interference arises

between the vertical sync frequency (approx. 60

Hz) of this unit and lighting frequency (50 Hz). As a

result, the hue tends to change with the passage of

time or flickering occurs, making it impossible to

achieve a proper white balance.

It is recommended that the white balance be

achieved using the settings shown in the table

below.

Power line frequency

Shutter speed

Preset white balance

Set the WHITE BAL switch to PRST. The white

Variable frame rate

This camera-recorder enables the frame rate

(shooting speed) to be set from 4 fps to 60 fps.

Since the 720P/59.94 Hz or 720P/60.00 Hz format is

used for recording onto the tape or outputting to the

HD SDI MON connector and the HD SDI EE

connector , users now have the exciting opportunity to

create a whole new dimension of moving images with

clearer slow-motion images and blur effects—a world

which was hitherto confined to the field of film

production—in their own video productions.

This unit automatically stores as the tape

management information both the frame rate

information which indicates the shooting speed and

the active frame information which indicates the first

frame where the frame image was switched in the

user bits of the sub-code track area (this used to be

the LTC area). This information is output from the TC

OUT connector, HD SDI MON connector and HD SDI

EE connector. Further, the active frame information is

stored in the least significant digit of the user bits

while the frame rate information is stored in its lower

third and fourth digits.

Setting the frame rate

There are three ways in which the frame rate can be

set.

Using menu operations

Perform the menu operations (pages 86 to 88),

button

02. 英(P26-88) 05.5.18 10:42 ページ62

Variable frame rate (continued)

<Notes>

In this unit, the frame rate is set by changing the

storage time of the optical signals sensed by the CCD.

Depending on the frame rate setting, the following

problems may arise.

1 White blemish

White blemishes may be seen on the screen on

account of the fluctuations in the dark current of the

photodiodes which make up the CCD picture

elements. This current increases in direct

proportion to the rise in the CCD’s temperature and

storage time in the photodiode.

In short, the white blemish increase in inverse

proportion to the frame rate setting.

When a lower frame rate setting is desired, reduce

the master gain setting and, where possible, avoid

direct sunlight and use the unit in a cool

environment.

When using this unit particularly at a low frame rate

of 11 fps or less, the extremely small white streaks

generated by the CCD are minimized using a

special method. For this reason, when subjects

with extremely small bright spots are shot, these

spots may appear less bright.

2 Delayed response time in automatic processing

When the frame rate setting has been lowered, it

takes longer for the unit to perform the automatic

processing (such as auto white balance, flare

compensation, auto knee and auto iris), possibly

giving the user the impression that something is

odd or wrong.

The response time for automatic processes is

particularly slow at a frame rate of 20 fps and

below.

When the frame rate has been set to 20 fps or

below, it is recommended that the unit be operated

with the automatic processing released.

3 Disturbed images

The images may be disturbed for an instant when

shooting while maintaining the frame-to-frame

continuity of the scenes with the time code set to

the rec run mode and with the frame rate set at 24

fps, 25 fps, 30 fps or 50 fps.

This occurs in order to reset the video signals from

the camera so as to maintain the continuity of the

time code recorded on the tape.

The disturbed images are not recorded on the tape

but they will affect the signals which are output from

the HD SDI MON connector.

Similarly, the images may also be disturbed for an

instant when the time code has been locked to

external signals or preset while the frame rate is set

at 24 fps, 25 fps, 30 fps or 50 fps.

If the time code has been set to the free run mode,

the images may also be disturbed at that instant

when the frame rate is switched to 24 fps, 25 fps,

30 fps or 50 fps.

However, the images will not be disturbed

during recording even if the frame rate is

switched to 24 fps, 25 fps, 30 fps or 50 fps.

Set the TCG switch to SET.

Switch the TC MODE to DF or NDF on the TC/UB

screen of VTR MENU.

Select DF to run the time code in the drop frame

mode or select NDF to run the time code in the

non-drop frame mode.

Set the time code using the SHIFT button, “+”

button and “–” button.

SHIFT button:

This is used to start the digit to be set flashing.

Each time it is pressed, the flashing moves by

one digit to the right.

“+” button:

This increments by 1 the numerical value of the

flashing digit.

“–” button:

This decrements by 1 the numerical value of the

flashing digit.

Select the TCG switch position.

Select F-RUN for running the time code in the free-

run mode or select R-RUN for running it in the rec-

run mode.

Setting the time data (continued)

Time code when the battery is replaced

The backup function works even when the battery is

replaced, and the time code generator continues to

operate for a prolonged duration (approx. 1 year).

<Note>

When the POWER switch is set to ON 5 OFF 5

ON, the backup accuracy of the time code is

approximately ±2 frames.

<Notes>

O When the frame rate is set to 24 fps, this unit will

perform the processing in the non-drop frame mode

in order to maintain the continuity of the frames

even when the time code has been set to the drop

frame mode.

Furthermore, when the frame rate has been set to

24 fps, it will not be possible to set the time code

while recording is in progress since the images will

be disturbed if the advancing of the time code is

discontinuous.

O When the frame frequency has been set to 60.00

Hz, the unit always performs the processing in the

non-drop frame mode.

Set the number of frames per seconds (24, 25 or

30) displayed in the frame digits of the time code

using the TC DISP SEL item on the TC/UB screen

of VTR MENU.

The time code is converted to the number of

frames which has been set here, and displayed.

Externally locking the time code

Set the POWER switch to ON.

Set the TCG switch to F-RUN.

Set the DISPLAY switch to TC.

Supply the reference time code and reference

video signal which are in a phase relationship that

satisfies the time code standard to the TC IN

connector and GENLOCK IN connector

respectively.

<Note>

When the external lock operation is performed, the

time code is instantly locked to the external time code,

and the same value as the external code value

appears on the counter display.

Do not set the unit to the recording mode during the

few seconds it takes for the sync generator to

stabilize.

User bits setting when the time code is externally

locked

When the time code is externally locked, only the time

data is locked to the time data of the external time

code.

This means that the user bits can be set separately for

each unit.

The user bits can also be locked to the user bits of the

external time code. For details, consult your dealer.

To release the external lock

First stop supplying the external time code, and set

the TCG switch to R-RUN.

When switching the power from the battery to an

external power supply while the time code is

externally locked

In order to ensure the continuity of the time code

generator’s power, connect the external power supply

to the DC IN connector, and then remove the battery

pack. If the battery pack is removed first, no

guarantees can be made for the continuity of the

external locking of the time code.

Gen-locking of the camera unit while the time

code is externally locked

While the time code is externally locked, the camera

unit is gen-locked by the reference video signal which

is supplied to the GEN LOCK IN connector.

<Notes>

O When the frame rate is set to 24 fps, this unit will

perform the processing in the non-drop frame mode

in order to maintain the continuity of the frames

even when the time code has been set to the drop

frame mode.

Furthermore, when the frame frequency has been

set to 60.00 Hz as well, the unit performs the

processing in the non-drop frame mode.

If an external time code generator is used, set it to

the non-drop frame mode.

O Use the same frame frequency setting for the

reference time code and reference videos signal as

the unit’s setting.

When the frame rate is used at 24 fps, the image

may be disturbed if the frame frequencies differ.

The built-in time code generator is now locked to the

disconnected. However, the servo lock will be subject

to disturbances if it is connected or disconnected

during recording (REC).

Tape management information

This unit automatically stores as the tape management information both the frame rate information which

indicates the shooting speed and the active frame information which indicates the first frame where the frame

image was switched in the user bits of the sub-code track area (this used to be the LTC area). This information

is output from the TC OUT connector, HD SDI MON connector and HD SDI EE connector. Further, the active

frame information is stored in the least significant digit of the user bits while the frame rate information is stored

in its lower third and fourth digits.

Setting Data Using an SD memory card

An SD memory card (optional accessory) can be used

as a setup card that stores up to eight files of settings

menu specifications.

Use of this data speeds up the process of reproducing

suitable setup statuses.

O The SD memory cards used with this unit do not

comply with the SD standards. Do not use the SD

memory cards formatted with other camera-

recorders.

SD memory cards that have been formatted on

personal computers (NTFS, FAT32) cannot be

used with this unit. They also may not be formatted

on this unit.

SD memory cards with the following capacity (8 MB

- 512 MB) can be used for the unit:

8 MB, 16 MB, 32 MB, 64 MB, 128 MB,

256 MB, 512 MB

How to eject the SD memory card

Open the cover by raising its bottom edge, and eject

the SD memory card.

<Note>

Take care not to touch the connector on the edge of

the SD memory card directly.

How to insert the SD memory card

With the surface bearing the logo facing you, insert

the SD memory card into the SD memory card slot,

and close the cover.

<Note>

Check that the surface bearing the logo is facing you

and the lettering is not upside down before inserting

the card.

When inserting the card, check the direction in which

the card is pointing, and if it does not slide neatly into

place, it means that the card may be pointing in the

wrong direction or that it may be upside down. Do not

force the card into place but check which is the front

and back and which is the top and bottom, and try

inserting the card again.

Bear in mind the following points when using

and saving the SD memory cards.

O Avoid high temperatures and high humidity levels.

O Keep the cards away from water.

O Avoid exposing the cards to electrical charges.

If the unit is in the rec-pause mode, it is possible to

ensure scene-to-scene continuity with an accuracy of

0 up to 1 frame just by pressing the VTR START

button or lens VTR button.

If the unit is in a mode other than rec-pause, the point

at which the scene-to-scene continuity is to be

maintained must be located before recording is

started.

Scene-to-scene continuity

The scene-to-scene continuity timing is located

automatically. However, the time taken until the start

of recording differs depending on the setting of the

VTR SAVE/STBY switch.

O When the VTR SAVE/STBY switch is set to SAVE,

recording commences about two seconds after the

VTR START button is pressed.

O When the VTR SAVE/STBY switch is set to STBY,

recording commences as soon as the VTR START

button is pressed.

During rec-pause

Ensuring scene-to-scene continuity after

the power was turned off while the unit

was in the rec-pause mode

Recording (continued)

Switch the power back on.

Press the VTR START button or lens VTR button

to start the recording.

Proceed as follows either after the tape has been

allowed to run or after the cassette has been ejected

or when ensuring continuity on a tape which has been

recorded only in part.

Ensuring scene-to-scene continuity at

other times

While monitoring the viewfinder screen, press the

PLAY/PAUSE button to play back the tape.

At the place on the tape where continuity is to be

maintained, press the PLAY/PAUSE (or STOP)

button again to stop the tape.

Press the lens RET button.

No playback images are shown, but two or so

seconds later preparations are made for shooting

with scene-to-scene continuity.

To check whether the tape has been cued up to

the place where shooting with scene-to-scene

continuity is to start, press the RET button again.

Press the VTR START button or lens VTR button

to start the recording.

The functions of a VTR START/STOP button can be

assigned to the USER1 or USER2 button on the

unit’s side panel on the CAM SW MODE screen of

FILM (CAM) MAIN MENU 2, and this button can

then be used to perform the start and stop

operations.

02. 英(P26-88) 05.5.18 10:42 ページ83

When the PLAY/PAUSE button is pressed, the

playback pictures can be monitored on the viewfinder

screen.

These playback pictures can be monitored in two

other ways.

Rec review

When recording is temporarily stopped and the lens

RET button is pressed, the last two seconds of the

tape are automatically rewound, and the playback

pictures on this part of the tape appear on the

viewfinder screen. This makes it possible to check

whether recording was performed properly.

After the two seconds of the tape have been played

back, the unit is again set to the recording start

standby mode.

If the RET button is held down, a maximum of 10

seconds of the tape is rewound and played back.

<Note>

The rec review function cannot be used unless

recording lasts for one or more seconds.

Color playback

When an HD color monitor is connected to the unit’s

HD SDI MON connector, color playback pictures can

be monitored.

The playback signals will be output to the viewfinder

even during rewinding (REW) or fast forwarding (FF).

Selecting the audio output of the playback signal and

adjusting the volume are accomplished using the

MONITOR switch control (page 12).

Playback (checking what has been recorded)

Depending on the internal VTR status, the RET button

functions which appear on the viewfinder screen

change as follows.

Lens RET button functions

Other VTR functions

The NEWS REC function is set using NEWS REC

MODE on the VTR MENU “FUNCTION” screen.

By controlling the VTR START button

acknowledgment time during recording (by up to 2

seconds), the time taken for the unit to transfer from

the recording mode to the rec-pause mode can be

delayed.

In other words, by controlling the VTR START button

operation acknowledgment time, the unit can

continuously record without the user having to

interrupt the recording: this safeguards against the

failure to record those precious moments—a failure

that occurs when recording is resumed immediately

after it was shut down temporarily.

NEWS REC function

The RETAKE function is activated by selecting ON for

RETAKE MODE on the VTR MENU “FUNCTION”

screen.

If the lens RET button is pressed while holding down

the MODE CHECK button when the unit is in the rec-

pause mode upon completion of a recording or

subsequently in the STOP mode, the tape will be

rewound to a point near the start point (a position

about 10 frames ahead of the recording start point) of

the final picture which was last recorded, and the unit

will be set to the rec-pause mode.

If there is enough leeway in the shooting time and a

particular cut is clearly judged to be no good,

recording can be started from that point so that the

no-good cut will be deleted.

By cutting down on the time taken for copying onto the

work tape, for instance, this function is very effective

in achieving economical operation.

RETAKE function

This function makes simple interval shooting

(intermittent recording) possible. It proves to be

particularly effective when shooting programs with a

nature theme or art programs.

The INTERVAL REC function is set on the VTR

MENU “FUNCTION” screen.

O INTERVAL REC MODE

This sets the INTERVAL REC function to ON, ONE

SHOT or OFF.

O INTERVAL REC TIME

This sets the recording time (1 cut) for interval

shooting.

O INTERVAL PAUSE TIME

This sets the rec-pause time for interval shooting.

Once the above items are set, the unit is set to the

INTERVAL REC mode, and “i” starts to flash inside

the viewfinder.

When the VTR START button is now pressed, interval

shooting is started, and “iREC” lights in place of “i.”

Also, the time unit (h/min/s/frm) display on the counter

display area starts to flash.

When the unit is set to rec-pause mode upon

completion of the first interval shooting, “iREC” goes

from lighted to flashing inside the viewfinder.

The time unit display on the counter display area

remains flashing.

To forcibly stop recording at any point in time during

interval recording, press the STOP button repeatedly.

Maintenance

The water vapor in the air may form as tiny droplets

on the head drum when the unit is moved from a cold

location to a warm location or used in a very humid

place. This phenomenon is known as condensation,

and running the tape under these conditions is liable

to cause the tape to stick to the drum.

Note the following points:

O Remove the tape when the unit’s operation is to be

started in conditions where condensation may form.

O Before loading the tape, set the power switch to

ON, and check that the HUMID display is not

lighted in the display window.

<Note>

For safety reasons, the HUMID display will flash and

the drum will rotate for 80 minutes after condensation

detection is released.

During this time, the operation buttons cannot be

operated.

Check that the HUMID display

is not lighted.

Condensation

Use the AJ-CL12LP cleaning cassette if the heads

need to be cleaned. Take care to read the

instructions accompanying the cleaning tape since the

video heads may be damaged if the tape is not used

in the correct way.

Head cleaning

O Do not use thinners or any other solvent to remove

dirt.

O Use a lens cleaner available on the market to wipe

the lens.

O NEVER wipe the mirror.

If dirt or dust has found its way onto the mirror,

remove it using an air blower available on the

market.

Cleaning inside the viewfinder

Smear

This phenomenon may occur when very bright

subjects are shot.

The faster the electronic shutter speed, the more likely

that it will occur.

White blemish

This phenomenon is caused by small white spots

when dark places are shot. The lower the frame rate

or the higher the gain, the more noticeable it

becomes.

Phenomena inherent to CCD

cameras

Replacing the backup battery

The backup battery is already installed when the unit

is shipped.

When it has discharged, the “BACK UP BATT

EMPTY” display appears for 3 seconds on the

viewfinder screen when the POWER switch is set to

ON.

Moreover, the time code value of the TCG will be set

to “00:00:00:00” and the backup of the time code

value will no longer be possible: this means that the

backup battery should be replaced.

Consult with your nearest service center, and replace

the spent battery with a new battery (CR2032 or

BR2032).

Backup battery

CAUTION:

These servicing instructions are for use by qualified

service personel only. To reduce the risk of electric

shock, do not perform any servicing other than that

contained in the operaiting instructions unless you

are qualified to do so.
