Compatibility with Output Signals
Because AV signal output from the AV signal
output socket is analog (the same as conventional
video systems), this Movie Camera can be
connected with S-VHS or VHS video or a TV for
playback.
ª
Focus
Auto Focus Adjustment
The Auto Focus System automatically moves
forward and backward the focusing lens inside the
Movie Camera to bring the subject into focus so
that the subject can be seen clearly.
However, the Auto Focus System does not
function properly for the following subjects or
under the following recording conditions.
Please use the Manual Focus Mode instead.
1) Recording a subject whose one end is
located closer to the Movie Camera and the
other end farther away from it
≥
Because Auto Focus makes adjustments at
the centre of an image, it may be impossible
to focus on a subject that is located in both
foreground and background.
2) Recording a subject behind dirty or dusty
glass
≥
Because the focus is on the dirty glass, the
subject behind the glass will not be focused.
3) Recording a subject in dark surroundings
≥
Because the light information that comes
through the lens decreases considerably, the
Movie Camera cannot focus correctly.
4) Recording a subject that is surrounded by
objects with glossy surfaces or by highly
reflective objects
≥
Because the Movie Camera focuses on the
objects with glossy surfaces or on highly
reflective objects, the recording subject may
become blurry.
5) Recording a fast-moving subject
≥
Because the focus lens inside moves
mechanically, it cannot keep up with the
fast-moving subject.
6) Recording a subject with little contrast
≥
Because the Movie Camera achieves focus
based upon the vertical lines of an image, a
subject with little contrast, such as a white
wall, may become blurry.

White Balance Adjustment
Depending on the type of light source, the colours
recorded by the Movie Camera may be affected.
In some cases, images may be recorded with
bluish or reddish hue. To minimize the effect of
light on the subject’s colour, what is called White
Balance Adjustment becomes necessary.
White Balance Adjustment
White Balance Adjustment recognizes the colour
of light and makes adjustment so that the white
colour will become pure white.
Automatic White Balance Adjustment
This Movie Camera stores settings that are
optimal for several kinds of general light sources.
The Movie Camera determines the hue of light
that it receives through the Lens, thereby judging
the recording condition, and selects the closest
hue setting. This function is called Automatic
White Balance Adjustment.
However, since white balance settings for only
several kinds of light sources are stored, the Auto
White Balance Function does not operate properly
when recording occurs under light that is out of the
range of the setup values.
ª
Time Code
Time Code signals are data that indicate time
measured in hours, minutes, seconds, and frames
(25 frames per second). If this data is included in a
recording, an address is assigned to each image
on the tape.
≥
The Time Code is automatically recorded as a
part of the sub-code at each recording.
≥
When a new (previously unrecorded) Cassette is
inserted, the Time Code automatically starts
from zero. If a recorded Cassette is inserted, the
Time Code picks up from the point where the
last scene was recorded. (In this case, when the
Cassette is inserted, the zero display
[0h00m00s00f] may appear, but the Time Code
starts from the previous value.)
≥
The Time Code cannot be reset to zero.
≥
Unless the Time Code is continuously recorded
from the beginning of a tape, accurate editing
may not be possible. To ensure that the Time
Code will be recorded with no breaks, we
recommend the use of the Blank Search
Function
