CCD color filter deterioration

When continuously shooting a bright light source such as a spotlight, the 
color filter in the CCD may become deteriorated and this may cause dis-
coloration  to  the  affected  part.  Even  when  changing  the  fixed  shooting 
direction  after  continuously  shooting  a  spotlight  for  a  certain  period,  the 
discoloration may remain.

Do not expose the camera to any direct intense light source such 
as a spotlight.

The intense light source may 
lead  to  dimming  (mistiness) 
or blooming (vertical lines) of 
the image.

Cleaning the product

Be sure to turn off the power before cleaning to prevent electric shock.
Do not use diluent, benzene or other volatile chemical reagents to clean 
the product; otherwise it may lead to discoloration of the shell.

About synchronous mode settings

The  image  synchronous  mode  of  the  product  is  internal  synchronization 
(INT) only. When a Panasonic system controller is connected, set the mul-
tiplexing vertical drive (VD2) to the off status.

Precautions

Precautions for installation

A brand new high resolution CCD

The newly developed 976-horizontal pixel CCD can achieve the horizontal 
definition 650TV line.
