Adjustments and Settings for Recording
When there is no time to adjust the white balance
Set the WHITE BAL switch to PRST. The white balance
will be set automatically according to the filter settings.
About white balance memory
The white balance values stored in memory will be
preserved even when the camera power is turned off.
There are two white balance memories, A and B. When the
AUTO W/B BAL switch is pushed to the WHT side, the
white balance will be adjusted automatically according to
the filter settings. The adjusted value will be stored in the
selected memory. Each memory can store up to five
adjusted values, for a total of 10.
Setting the Electronic Shutter
This section explains the different modes which can be
used for the electronic shutter, and gives the procedures for
setting the shutter mode and shutter speed.
When a camera control unit or a remote control device,
such as MSU-900/950 and the RCP-700-series Remote
Control Panel, is connected, the electronic shutter is
controlled from the external control device and control on
the camera are disabled.
About the shutter modes
The different shutter modes which can be used with the
electronic shutter of the camera, and the shutter speeds
which may be selected, are as follows:
1) The values in the table are those with 60i/59.94i. With other formats, the
available values may be different.
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 at the power supply frequency. This
phenomenon is known as “flicker”. When using the
electronic shutter under these lighting conditions, there are
certain cases in which the flicker is more noticeable. In
particular, color flicker is evident when the power
frequency is 60 Hz. In areas where the power frequency is
50 Hz, setting the shutter speed to 1/100 second will
reduce the flicker.
Selecting the shutter mode and speed
The shutter mode, and the shutter speed in standard mode,
are set using the SHUTTER switch.
Setting the shutter mode, and shutter speed in
standard mode
1
Push the SHUTTER switch from the ON position to
the SEL position.
The current shutter setting will be displayed in the
setting change/adjustment progress message display
area of the viewfinder screen for about three seconds.
Example: “Shutter: 1/250”
2
Push the SHUTTER switch to the SEL position again
before the display disappears. Repeat this action until
the desired mode or speed is displayed.
When all modes and speeds are displayed, they will be
displayed in the following order:
