Set the offset of the focus detection value.
2)
1) Normally, the sensitivity of the indicator is automatically set to the
optimum value in conjunction with the AREA MARKER SIZE set
value. Use this setting when an optimum sensitivity value cannot be
obtained, depending on the shooting environment.
2) Normally, the optimum offset is automatically set in conjunction with
the AREA MARKER SIZE and MASTER GAIN set values. Use this
setting when the optimum offset cannot be obtained, depending on
the shooting environment.
To use the area marker
Setting AREA MARKER to ON displays the detection
area of the focus as a marker on the viewfinder screen.
You can set the size and position of the detection area
with the menu items below.
SIZE:
The size of the detection area can be changed.
(If the area size is too large, both the subject and the
background are included in the area, making the
indicator display may easily deviate from the
subject.)
POSITION:
Roughly set the position of the detection
area.
POSITION H:
Finely adjust the position of the
detection area in the horizontal directions.
POSITION V:
Finely adjust the position of the
detection area in the vertical directions.

is preferentially displayed.
• The area marker and the aspect safety marker cannot be
displayed simultaneously, whichever you set to ON later
is preferentially displayed.
• When displaying the focus assist indicators, check that
the flange focal length has been precisely adjusted.
See “Adjusting the Flange Focal Length” on page 15 for
the flange focal length.
Setting the Flicker-Reduction
Function
With artificial lighting, particularly fluorescent lights and
mercury-vapor lamps, the brightness appears to be
constant, but in fact the strength of the red, green, and blue
components varies with the power supply frequency. This
phenomenon is known as “flicker.” When using the camera
under such lighting conditions, there are certain cases in
which flicker is more noticeable.
The HDCU3300R Camera Control Unit in this camera
system is provided with the flicker-reduction function.
Perform the following settings if flicker is noticeable.
The flicker-reduction function is available only when the
HDCU3300R is connected. This function corrects flicker
noise in 3-times normal-speed video output signals. This
function cannot be applied to the standard-speed output
from the optional modules (if any) in SLOT 1, 2, and 3 of
the CCU. Perform the settings by checking slow-motion
playback picture.
For details, refer to the Operation Manual of the camera
control unit, along with that of the camera.
1
Turn on the HDCU3300R Camera Control Unit and
the camera.
2
Open the front panel of the HDCU3300R then set the
menu control switch on the DTX board to MENU.
The CCU-MENU is displayed on the monitor
connected to the CCU.
3
Move the cursor to <SYSTEM OPERATION>, using
the +/
−
switch on the DTX board, then push the
CANCEL/ENTER switch to the ENTER position
once.
The <OUTPUT-SELECT> page (S00) is displayed.
4
Display the <SSM FLICKER> page (S09), using the
+/
−
switch on the DTX board. Then push the
CANCEL/ENTER switch to the ENTER position once
to determine the selected page.
