any particular set of batteries actually will provide the service life indicated. Low temperatures
shorten battery life.

• Battery life varies with brand.
Continuous recording values show the number of shots without using the flash. The number of

•This camera does not have a separate battery to power its clock. Clock settings are cleared whenever power to the camera is
cut off (by batteries going dead while the camera is not connected to an AC power outlet with the AC adaptor) for about 24
hours. After power is resumed, either by loading fresh batteries or connecting to an AC power outlet, you will have to set the
correct time and date again.
•The liquid crystal panel built into this camera is the product of precision engineering, with a pixel yield of 99.99%. This also
means, however that 0.01% of the pixels can be expected to fail to light or to remain lit at all times.

Note: Help command on adjustment window cannot be used as it uses Japanese system.
3-1. Color adjustment data writing
1. Summary
(1) QV-3000EX is a high quality digital camera and makeshift adjustments cannot cover the quality of the
camera's picture.
Therefore, we have prepared set of lens ass'y that is adjusted precisely in the factory and a floppy disc
containing the lens'es adjustment data as spare parts.
(2) These adjustment data are stored in the EEPROM on PCB D.
2. Repairs
It is necessary to write color adjustment data for the replacements of the following units.
(1) Lens ass'y
(2) PCB D (when EEPROM contents can be read)
(3) PDB D and lens ass'y (when EEPROM contents cannot be read)
3. To replace the lens ass'y
(1) Connect AC adaptor and PC link cable to the camera.
Note: Connect the link cable to serial port COM1.
(2) Turn the camera on to set it on PLAY mode.
(3) Boot adjustment program ADJ716.EXE.
At this time, each adjustment data are 0.
— 11 —
(4) Read the adjustment data of before repairs.
Click the Receipt button. “receive OK” will be indicated and adjustment data are shown.
Reference: At this time you can save the adjustment data in your PC.
File (F) ➜ Save as (A)
Select the drive and name the file then save it.
(Note: Do not forget to put extension code ".ADJ".)
(5) Write down the following numbers.
agc-6ab
strobe-pwm
(6) Replace the lens ass'y.
(Adjusted in the factory and comes with adjustment data)
(7) Connect AC adaptor and PC link cable to the camera.
(8) Turn the camera on and set it on PLAY mode.
(9) Boot the adjustment program (ADJ716.EXE).
— 12 —
(10) Insert the floppy disc containing adjustment data of the lens ass'y in your PC and read the data.
File (F) ➜ Open (O)
Select FDD
Select adjustment data file with extension code .ADJ.
* Adjustment data file name: 9999999.ADJ
* 9999999 is the 7-digit number written on the seal stuck on the side of the lens unit.
(11) Change the following data with the number you have written on step 5 (data before replacing the lens
unit).
Caution: Never change the other data.
Agc-6db
Strobe-pwm
(12) Add the sum of three numerals agc-6db:206, white-Rgain, and white-Bgain on the checksum.
(Example)agc_6db : 206
+
white_Rgain : 78
+
white_Bgain : 163
