1. INTRODUCTION

1-1 Precautions for Proper Use

● Supply voltage

Make sure that the power is between 11 V and 15 V DC. If the power voltage is too low, abnormal colour and increased noise may occur. Do not exceed 15 V DC in any case, or the unit could be damaged.

● Allowable ambient temperature and humidity

Be sure to use the unit within the allowable temperature range of 0°C to 40°C and a relative humidity of 30% to 80%. Using the unit at a temperature or humidity outside the allowable ranges could result not only in malfunction but the impact on the CCD elements could be serious as small white spots may be generated. When storing the GY-DV5000 for a long time, the storage temperatures should be –20°C to 60°C.

● Strong electromagnetic waves or magnetism

Noise may appear in the picture or audio and/or the colours may be incorrect if the camera is used near a radio or television transmitting antenna, in places where strong magnetic fields are generated by transformers, motors, etc., or near devices emitting radio waves, such as transceivers or cellular phones.

● Use of wireless microphone near the camera

When a wireless microphone or wireless microphone tuner is used near the camera during recording, the tuner could pick up noise.

● Avoid using or placing the unit in places;

• subject to extreme heat or cold;

• with excessive dirt or dust;

• with high humidity or moisture;

• subject to smoke or vapour such as near a cooking stove;

• subject to strong vibrations or on an unstable surface.

• also do not leave the unit for long hours in a parked car under direct sunlight or near room heating equipment.

● Do not leave the unit where it is subject to radiation or xrays or where corrosive gasses occur.

● Protect the unit from being splashed with water

(especially when shooting in the rain).

● Protect the unit from being wet when shooting on a beach. In addition, salt and sand may adhere to the camera body. Be sure to clean the camera after use.

● Protect the unit against penetration of dust when using it in a place subject to sandy dust.

● Optical performance of lens

Due to the optical performance of the lens, colour divergence phenomena (magnification chromatic aberration) may occur at the periphery of the image. This is not a camera malfunction.

● Noise may appear in the viewfinder when switching between the playback picture and the EE picture.

● Use the unit in an upright position.

If placed on its side, heat release efficiency will deteriorate, adversely affecting the tape transport. Depending on circumstances the tape may also be damaged.

● Vibrations

Colors may fail to appear and/or the image and sound may be disturbed during VTR playback in locations subjected to strong vibrations.

● Precautions for transportation

Do not drop or hit the unit against a hard object.

● Remove the videocassette before transporting the unit.

● Do not insert an object other than a videocassette in the

cassette insertion slot. Be sure to close the cassette cover when the unit is not to be used for a long period.

● Do not set the POWER switch to OFF or remove the power cable during recording or playback. Otherwise the tape may be damaged.

● The sensitivity level of the provided microphone is set lower than the reference input (- 60 dBs) setting.

● When the unit is not in use, be sure to set the POWER switch to OFF in order to reduce power consumption.

● Cleaning the body: Wipe body with a dry, soft cloth. When it is extremely dirty, soak the cloth in a solution of neutral detergent, wipe the body with it, and then use a clean cloth to remove the detergent. To prevent deformation of the body , etc. and to avoid operation hazards, do not allow volatile liquids such as benzine and thinner to touch the body, and do not wipe it with a cloth soaked in such a liquid.

● The camera may not show stable pictures in the period immediately after the power is turned on, but this is not a malfunction.

● If a tape containing recorded NTSC signals is played back, “NTSC INHIBIT” is displayed and correct playback will not take place. If this happens, remove the videocassette so that the unit returns to its normal state.

● When turning on the power with the tape inserted or after loading a tape, the built-in head cleaner will emit a sound while operating. However, this is not a malfunction of the unit.

● The LCD screen and the viewfinder screen are manufactured using high-precision technology. Black spots may appear on the LCD screen and the viewfinder screen, or red, blue, green and/or white spots may not turn off. However, this is not a malfunction and these spots are not recorded on the tape.

● Do not insert fingers or foreign objects into the cassette insertion slot as this may result in personal injury or damage to the mechanism.

CAUTION :

● Do not point the lens or viewfinder directly at the sun or

other strong light source.

• Eye damage could result.

• If the lens or viewfinder is left pointed at the sun, rays may collect inside the unit and cause damage or a fire.

● When carrying the camera, be sure to hold the carrying handle. Holding the lens or viewfinder may result in damage.

1. INTRODUCTION

1-2 Routine and Periodical Maintenance

The GY-DV5000 incorporates precision mechanical parts, which will collect dirt, wear out and deteriorate as the unit is used. After the unit has been used for a long period even in a normal environment, the heads, drums and tape transport mechanisms also collect dirt. Especially , dust which penetrates the inside of the VCR section during outdoor use will promote the wear and deterioration of mechanical parts by causing poor contact between tape and heads or failing to maintain the video and audio quality at high levels. To prevent wear and deterioration, clean the mechanical parts using a head cleaning tape as routine maintenance. However, cleaning with a head cleaning tape alone is not enough for cleaning the entire tape transport mechanism, so it is also recommended to apply periodical maintenance (inspection) to prevent the sudden occurrence of failure. As the replacement, adjustment and servicing of parts require advanced skill and equipment, please consult the person in charge of professional video equipment at your nearest JVC-authorized service agent.

Head Cleaning

● To maintain beautiful pictures and sound, be sure to use a head cleaning tape to clean the head periodically. (Read the “Precautions for Use of Head Cleaning Tape”.) If head cleaning is not performed periodically , a type of mosaic noise called block noise may appear in the picture or sound may be interrupted.

Block Noise

● Please use cleaning tape produced by JVC. Do not use head cleaning tapes other than specified. Read the precautions and instructions for use of the head cleaning tape.

● When dust adheres to the heads, the warning message “HEAD CLEANING REQUIRED!” is displayed on the LCD monitor and in the viewfinder during playback, edit search, and recording check using the RET button on the lens section.

Periodical Maintenance

Yardstick for use 1 to 2 times 1 to 2 times 1 to 2 times of cleaning tape every 5 hours every 20 to 30 hours every 5 hours

Note 1) When used in a low humidity environment, head cleaning

should be conducted at intervals half of those given in the below chart.

Note 2) If an ME80 tape is used immediately after head cleaning,

the “HEAD CLEANING REQUIRED!” indicator may remain on. In this case, let the tape run as the indicator will turn off after the tape has run for a while.

Note 3) Use the cleaning tape in the room temperature (10˚C to

35˚C).

Note 4) The cleaning tape case contains instructions for use of

the cleaning tape. However, some of these instructions differ from the contents of this sheet. When using the cleaning tape, please follow the instructions of this sheet.

1-4 Videocassette to be Used

● Use JVC’s videocassette tapes marked with the “ ” or

” symbol.

“

Standard DV videocassette: LA-DV276, LA-DV186, LADV124 Mini DV videocassette: M-DV63PRO, M-DV60, M-DV30 * Do not use M-DV80.

● Videocassettes cannot be used upside down.

● Avoid storing a videocassette with its tape not being

completely wound, as this may damage the tape. Rewind it to the beginning before placing a cassette into storage.

● Store videocassettes in a place with little humidity and good

ventilation where mould does not form.

● After a videocassette tape has been used repeatedly,

it becomes unable to maintain full performance due to an increase in noise caused by dropouts, etc. Do not continue to use a dirty or damaged tape, as this will reduce the rotary head life.

● Videocassette tapes with the “ are provided with a switch on the back to prevent accidental erasure.

● Slide the switch to SAVE to protect the required recording in the tape from being overwritten.

● To record on the tape, slide the switch to REC.

■For recording and storing videotapes in the best condition

Observe the following instructions for the best recording and storage of videotapes.

● Take care of the conditions of handling videotapes. It is recommended that you record and store videotapes in the environment below.

Storage

Recording Short period Long period

Temperature 17°C to 25°C15°C to 23°C15°C to 19°C Humidity 30% to 70% 40% to 55% 25% to 35% Hourly temperature change Hourly humidity change

Less than 10°C –– Less than 10% ––

(Up to 10 years) (Over 10 years)

● Do not leave the videotapes neglected for a long period. If videotapes are left wound for a long period of time, it may result in distortion of the tape. Also it may cause tape-totape adhesion (known as blocking). It is recommended that videotapes be unspooled and rewound once a year for refreshing.

● When tapes are not in use, store them in cases and on end. Storage cases protect videotapes from humidity, dust and ultraviolet light. Keep tapes in cases and do not store them lying flat. When housed in a horizontal position, pressure from other tapes can cause distortions and deformations of the tape edges.

●

Battery holder: Anton-Bauer QRQ27 For details on how to mount the battery holder, see page

35.

1-6 Condensation

●

If the unit has been cooled down in a cold place and is then carried to a warm place, the moisture contained in the warm air may adhere to the head drum or tape guides and be cooled into water droplets. This phenomenon is referred to as condensation (dewing). When this occurs, the head drum and tape guides are covered with droplets allowing the tape to be stuck to them, leading to tape damage.

●

Condensation occurs in the following cases:

• When the unit is suddenly moved from a cold place to a warm place.

• When a room heater has just started or when the unit is exposed directly to cold air from an air conditioner.

• When the unit is placed in a very humid place.

Do not leave the videocassette inserted when moving the camera under conditions where the temperature environment changes. After moving the unit, do not use until the internal parts have stabilized.

Head drum

Video tape

1. INTRODUCTION

●

“CONDENSATION ON DRUM” is displayed on the LCD monitor and in the viewfinder when condensation occurs in this unit.

Keep the power on until the warning message disappears.

●

Pay attention to condensation even before the condensation indication appears.

• As condensation forms gradually, the condensation indication may not appear for the first 10-15 minutes after condensation has formed inside.

• In an extremely cold place, the condensation could freeze and turn into frost. In such a case, it takes an additional 23 hours for the frost to first melt into condensation and then to be dissolved.

●

T o prevent condensation when moving the unit from one place to another where the temperatures are greatly defferent, first remove the videocassette, place the unit in a tightly sealed vinyl bag, and then move it to a new environment. To ensure no condensation occurs, allow the temperature of the unit in the bag to reach that of the new environment before using it.

WARNING0201

CONDENSATION ON DRUM

1-7 Characteristic CCD Phenomena

Smear and Blooming

Due to the physical structure of a CCD it is possible to induce vertical streaking (called “smear”) when shooting an extremely bright light source. Another effect is the expansion of light around a bright light or object (called “blooming”). The CCD employed in this unit is characterized by inducing very little smear or blooming. Nevertheless, please take note that smear or blooming may be indured when shooting a bright light source.

Smear (Vertical pale streaking appearing at high luminous object)

High luminous object (Electric light, sunlight, etc.)

Blooming

Monitor screen

(Blurring in highlight)

Moire or Aliasing

Shooting stripes or fine patterns may cause a jagged effect or a banding in fine mesh patterns.

White dots

High temperatures can cause CCD sensor pixels to produce the effect of white dots in the image. This condition is conspicuous especially when gain is applied. This is a characteristic of the charged-coupled device (CCD). As far as possible, use the unit under conditions where the temperature of the unit does not increase.

The built-in, rechargeable backup battery retains the date and time and the time code data. The built-in battery is constantly being charge whenever the GY -DV5000 is connected to a power supply, but it gradually discharges while the GY-DV5000 is disconnected from a power supply. The battery will be fully discharged when the GY-DV5000 is not used for about three months, in which case the set date and time and time code data are reset. In this case, recharge the built-in battery and then set the date and time and time code data again. However, it is possible to use the GY-DV5000 even if the bulit-in battery is discharged but the date and time and time code data cannot be recorded.

Set the following switches.

● Set the POWER switch to ON.

● Set the OUTPUT switch to CAM-AUTO KNEE.

● Set the IRIS mode switch of the lens to A (Auto).

Set the FILTER knob according to the current lighting.

Set the WHT.BAL switch to A or B.

Place a white object near the centre of the screen under the same lighting conditions as the target subject and zoom in to fill the screen with white.

Tilt the AUTO WHT./ACCU FOCUS switch upward (to AUTO WHITE) once and release it. “AUTO WHITE A, B OPERATION” is displayed in the viewfinder while the auto white balance adjustment circuit operates. When correct white balance is obtained, the approximate colour temperature is displayed together with “AUTO WHITE A, B OK” for about 5 seconds.

Error messages

If the adjustment ends abnormally, an error message, as described below, blinks for about 5 seconds.

● NG: OBJECT (Improper object)

Displayed when there is not enough white colour on an object or the colour temperature is not suitable. Replace the colour temperature conversion filter or use another white object and re-adjust the white balance.

● ERROR: LOW LIGHT (Insufficient illumination)

Displayed when the illumination is dim. Increase the illumination and then re-adjust the white balance.

● ERROR: OVER LIGHT (Excessive illumination)

Displayed when the light is excessively bright. Decrease the illumination and then re-adjust the white balance.

CAUTION:

● The FAW (Full-time Auto White balance) function cannot provide optimum white balance with a subject outside the FA W adjustment range, for example when it contains only a single colour or not enough white colour.

● The accuracy of the FAW (Full-time Auto White balance) is inferior to that of the manual white balance.

● When the power is turned on with the FAW mode selected, it takes about 10 seconds for the FAW adjustment to be completed. Do not shoot within this interval.

About the QUICK REC START Mode

If the VTR trigger button is pressed immediately after the videocassette is inserted, the mode becomes the QUICK REC START mode that enables quick start of recording. However, when shooting starts in the middle of the tape, a blank space appears as the new scene will not be linked smoothly with the previous image. Also, the time code does not continue. (Some overlap may also occur.)

CAUTION:

● The unit enters the stop mode automatically at TAPE END. If this mode continues for 3 minutes, the mode switches to the tape protect mode. ☞ See “LONG PAUSE TIME item on the OTHERS (1/2) menu screen” on page 80.

● If the VTR trigger button is pressed very quickly and repeatedly , or the POWER switch is moved immediately after the trigger button is pressed, the viewfinder REC indicator lamp may blink and the GY-DV5000 may not enter the record mode. To remedy this condition set the POWER switch to OFF and wait for 5 seconds or more before turning the power on again.

● A neat transition to the next recorded scene cannot be guaranteed if a recording is ended by turning the POWER switch or DC power supply OFF, or by removing the battery pack.

● Trial-shooting is always recommended before recording important events to confirm the recording is satisfactory.

● The microphone may pick up the sound of the lens’ iris if the iris is changed abruptly or the iris is manually moved abruptly

during recording. If the sound is found annoying, please purchase an optional microphone in order to move the microphone away from the lens or ensure that the iris is not changed abruptly during shooting.

䡲 Outline

The following operation allows the alignment of the shutter speed of the camera with the variable scanning rate of a computer monitor or display. When a computer monitor screen or display is shot with the camera, a bright horizontal line indicating excessive exposure is displayed in cases when the scanning rate of the monitor is faster than the shutter speed of the camera. A dark horizontal line indicating insufficient exposure is displayed in cases when the monitor’s scanning rate is slower than the camera’s shutter speed. The scanning frequency of a monitor varies due to various reasons during the computer operation. Adjust the scanning rate to obtain a stable image while observing the image in the viewfinder or LCD monitor.

䡲 Variable Scan [V.SCAN]

• Basic operation

Set the SHUTTER item on the CAMERA OPERATION menu screen to VARIABLE. Then rotate the SHUTTER dial upward or downward to change the shutter speed. (The speed is displayed in the viewfinder or LCD monitor.)

GAIN SWITCHING

GAIN switch

CAUTION:

When gain is set to “ALC”, gain is boosted automatically as the illumination becomes darker. However, noise will increase a little because the screen becomes brighter as the ALC (Auto Level Control) function boosts the gain more than in the case of manual adjustment.

This switch allows the gain to be boosted when the illumination of the subject is insufficient.

Switch Position Factory-Set Gain

L 0dB

M 9dB

H 18dB

When the GAIN switch is switched, the newly set gain is displayed for about 3 seconds on the Status (0, 1, 3) screen in the viewfinder or LCD monitor. Set it to L (0 dB) in normal use.

■The gain set for each of the switch positions can be changed with “GAIN” on the CAMERA OPERATION menu screen. It is also possible to use the ALC function that varies the gain automatically. A setting at –3dB corresponds to a decreased sensitivity equivalent to the brightness of a 1/2 filter.

☞ See page 71 for details.

■The gain transition can be made smoother by selecting

“SMOOTH TRANS” on the CAMERA OPERATION menu screen. ☞ See page 71. However, note that the SMOOTH TRANS function is not available if gain is set to ALC.
