Panasonic Support
Panasonic cameras do not support LANC. The
r-THREE
system will allow for basic operation of such cameras, but
many of the advanced features just cannot be supported
given this limitation of the camera. Below is a list of
limitations that you need to be aware of if you are using a
Panasonic camera.
♦
Panasonic cameras must be powered on manually.
The PWR button on the
r-THREE
Control Head
will have no effect and the STATUS Lights will
always be off.
♦
Panasonic cameras must be set to auto focus on
the camera itself. The Zoom/Focus Joystick will
only Zoom (up & down); Focus (left & right) will
have no effect.
♦
Only SYS MODE and Time Code Mode are
supported as the CAM MODE feature requires
LANC support which Panasonic cameras do not
provide. If you attempt to select CAM MODE
when using a Panasonic camera, the system will
go to the next mode (either SYS MODE or Time
Code Mode).
♦
When in Time Code MODE, the
r-THREE
Control
Head Display will show
PANA
instead of the Time
Code for Panasonic cameras.
♦
When a supported Panasonic Camera is attached
to the Pan Tilt Head, the
LANC PANASONIC
switch
