Overview
FCB-EH6500(GB) A-EEP-100-11(1)
Software
Use of the demonstration software developed by Sony
Corporation or use of the software with customer
developed application software may damage hardware,
the application program or the camera. Sony Corporation
is not liable for any damages under these conditions.
Operation
Start the camera control software on your computer
after you turn on the camera and the image is displayed.
Operation and storage locations
Do not shoot images that are extremely bright (e.g.,
light sources, the sun, etc.) for long periods of time. Do
not use or store the camera in the following extreme
conditions:
Extremely hot or cold places (operating temperature
–5 ˚C to +60 ˚C (23 ˚F to 140 ˚F))
Close to generators of powerful electromagnetic
radiation such as radio or TV transmitters
Where it is subject to fluorescent light reflections
Where it is subject to unstable (flickering, etc.)
lighting conditions
Where it is subject to strong vibration
Where it is subject to radiation from laser beams
Care of the unit
Remove dust or dirt on the surface of the lens with a
blower (commercially available).
Other
Do not apply excessive voltage. (Use only the specified
voltage.) Otherwise, you may get an electric shock or
a fire may occur.
The CCD image sensor and IC included in this
camera may break if exposed to static electricity.
When directly handling this camera, wear an
antistatic strap, spread a conductive sheet or similar
item under your workbench, and take measures to
eliminate static electricity.
If the unit is occurred the abnormal or malfunction, contact your
Sony dealer.
Precautions
Phenomena specific to CCD image sensors
The following phenomena that may appear in images
are specific to CCD (Charge Coupled Device) image
sensors. They do not indicate malfunctions.
White flecks
Although the CCD image sensors are produced with
high-precision technologies, fine white flecks may be
generated on the screen in rare cases, caused by cosmic
rays, etc.
This is related to the principle of CCD image sensors
and is not a malfunction.
The white flecks especially tend to be seen in the
following cases:
when operating at a high environmental temperature
when you have raised the master gain (sensitivity)
when operating in Slow-Shutter mode
Vertical smear
When an extremely bright object, such as a strong
spotlight or flashlight, is being shot, vertical tails may
be produced on the screen, or the image may be
distorted.
Bright object
(e.g. strong spotlight,
strong reflected light,
flashlight, the sun)
Monitor screen
Vertical tails shown on the
image.
Aliasing
When fine patterns, stripes, or lines are shot, they may
appear jagged or flicker.
Phenomena Specific to Lenses
Ghosting
If a strong light source (e.g., the sun) exists near the
incidence angle of the lens, bright spots may appear in
the image due to diffuse reflection within the lens.
