Safety Precautions

When the equipment is installed in a cabinet or on a shelf, make sure that it has sufficient space on all sides to allow for ventilation (10 cm (3-15/16") or more on both sides, on top and at the rear). Do not block the ventilation holes. (If the ventilation holes are blocked by a newspaper, or cloth etc. the heat may not be able to get out.) No naked flame sources, such as lighted candles, should be placed on the apparatus. When discarding batteries, environmental problems must be considered and the local rules or laws governing the disposal of these batteries must be followed strictly.
The apparatus shall not be exposed to dripping or splashing and that no objects filled with liquids, such as vases, shall be placed on the apparatus.
Do not point the lens directly into the sun. This can cause eye injuries, as well as lead to the malfunctioning of internal circuitry. There is also a risk of fire or electric shock.
CAUTION!
The following notes concern possible physical damage to this unit and to the user. Carrying or holding this unit by the LCD monitor can result in dropping the unit, or in a malfunction. Do not use a tripod on unsteady or unlevel surfaces. It could tip over, causing serious damage to the unit.
CAUTION!
Connecting cables (Audio/Video, etc.) to this unit and leaving it on top of the TV is not recommended, as tripping on the cables will cause the unit to fall, resulting in damage.
Si le matériel est installé dans un coffret ou sur une étagère, s’assurer qu’il y a un espace suffisant sur tous les côtés pour permettre la ventilation (10 cm (3-15/16") ou plus sur les deux côtés, au dessus et à l’arrière). Ne pas boucher les orifices de ventilation. (Si les orifices de ventilation sont bouchés par un journal, un tissu, etc., la chaleur peut ne pas s’éliminer.) Aucune source à flamme nue, telle que des bougies allumées, ne doit être placée sur l’appareil. En jetant des batteries aux ordures, les problèmes d’environnement doivent être pris en considération et les réglementations locales ou la législation concernant le rebut de ces batteries doivent être strictement respectées.
L’appareil ne doit pas être exposé à de l’eau ou à des éclaboussures et les objets remplis de liquide, tels que des vases, ne doivent pas être placés sur l’appareil.
Ne dirigez pas l’objectif directement vers le soleil. Vous pourriez vous abîmer la vue et l’appareil pourrait être endommagé. Il y a aussi risque d’incendie ou d’électrocution.
Attention!
Les remarques suivantes sont destinées à protéger l’utilisateur et le caméscope contre des dommages éventuels. Ne pas transporter ou saisir le caméscope par l’écran LCD, car il pourrait tomber ou s’endommager. Ne pas utiliser de trépied photographique sur des surfaces irrégulières et inclinées. Il pourrait tomber et le caméscope pourrait être sérieusement endommagé.
Attention!
Avec des câbles (Audio/Vidéo, etc.) raccordés, il est recommandé de ne pas laisser le caméscope sur le dessus du téléviseur, car tirer sur les câbles pourrait faire tomber le caméscope, causant des dommages.

Main Features

A variety of wired and wireless interfaces to support various network connections
Introduction
In addition to the USB host terminal for wireless LAN and LTE USB adapter connections, this camera recorder is equipped with a variety of interfaces such as wired LAN terminal and built-in wireless LAN antennas u v to support various network connections.
Three full HD 2/3-inch CMOS image sensors for high sensitivity of F12, low noise high quality recording
This camera recorder is equipped with three 2/3­inch 2.20M pixels full HD CMOS image sensors. It delivers high sensitivity of F12, low noise high quality recordings.
2/3-inch B4 lens mount system equipped with B4 lens mount and 4­position optical ND filter
This camera recorder comes with a 2/3-inch B4 lens mount system equipped with B4 lens mount and 4-position optical ND filter. A wide range of B4 mount lenses can be used. Furthermore, when a B4 lens with chromatic aberration compensation data is installed, chromatic aberration can be corrected on the camera recorder. By switching the 4-position ND filter (CLEAR, 1/4, 1/16, 1/64), the amount of light can be adjusted according to the brightness during shooting.
High 4:2:2 sampling
High quality signal processing that delivers rich gradation expression and color reproduction of video signals is possible by means of 10-bit, 4:2:2 sampling.
Various
The recording codec supports two types of formats that are compatible with the 4:2:2 10-bit formats widely used by broadcasting stations, namely MPEG-4 AVC/H.264 and MPEG-2. All file formats are compatible with QuickTime (MOV).
