1-2 Precautions for Proper Use

●

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.

CAUTION :

●

Supply voltage Make sure that the power is between 11 V and 15 V DC. If the power voltage is too low, abnormal color 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-DV700W 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 colors 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.

●

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, color 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.

●

Setup level The video signal of the unit's video output is provided with a setup level when shipped from the factory. If you want to turn OFF the setup level, please consult the person in charge of professional video equipment at your nearest JVC-authorized service agent. The setup level is never attached to the video signal recorded on the tape.

●

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 during VCR playback in locations subjected to 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.

●

As this camera is for designed for commercial use, the reference recording level is set lower than for consumeroriented DV equipment.

●

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

●

Cleaning the body: Wipe body with a dry, soft cloth. When it is extremely dirty, soak the cloth in a solution of neutral detergent, wring it out and then wipe. 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 be unstable in the period immediately after

the power is turned on, but this is not a malfunction.

●

If a tape containing recorded PAL signals is played back, the

GY-DV700W automatically enters the STOP mode. 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.

●

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

The GY-DV700W incorporates precision mechanical parts, which will collect dirt, wear out and deteriorate as the unit is used. On the other hand, when the unit has been used for a long period in a normal environment, the heads, drums and tape transport mechanisms also collect dirt deposited on them. Furthermore, dust which penetrates the inside of the VCR section especially 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, it is also recommended to apply periodical maintenance (inspection) to prevent troubles that may be caused by 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.

The GY -DV700W can use any of the following battery packs.

●

Flat shape type

●

Anton-Bauer battery pack: Trimpack 13/14 Series

Magnum 13/14 Series Compack 13/14 Series Propack 13/14 Series

An Anton-Bauer battery pack cannot be connected directly to the camera. It is necessary to mount the optional battery holder.

●

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

●

When condensation occurs in this unit, the DEW indicator on the display lights up, and the WARNING LED blinks red. (See page 86) To remedy, leave the unit with the power ON and wait until the WARNING LED stops blinking red and the DEW indicator disappears from the counter display.

1-6 Battery Pack to be Used

To display the remaining battery power accurately, set the VCR Setup Menu item No. 396 BATTER Y TYPE according to the type of the battery pack in use. (See page 69)

1-7 Condensation

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 be careful when shooting a bright light source.

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 malfunction with 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.

● Use JVC’s videocassette tapes marked with MiniDV for this unit.

Please use DVM60 or DVM30 type videocassettes.

● Videocassettes cannot be used upside down.

● Avoid storing a videocassette with unevenly wound tape,

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.

1-5 Videocassette to be Used

● Videocassette tapes marked MiniDV are provided with

a switch on the back for use in preventing accidental erasure.

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

Operating Time with Battery Pack

When the VF-P116W is used as the viewfinder and a fully charged battery pack is attached, the approximate continuous operating time is as follows:

● Battery operating time may differ depending on the number of times the battery has been charged, charging conditions and the operating environment, etc. Use the values in the table on the left for approximate reference times.

● Operating time is reduced in areas with a cold environment.

● Operating time is reduced when the power zoom lens is used

frequently.

PRECAUTIONS FOR THE BATTERY PACK

● When the battery pack is not in use, it must be stored in a cool, dry place. Do not leave the battery pack in a place where it might be subject to a high temperature (under direct sunlight in a car, etc.), this could cause leakage of the fluid or shorten service life.

● When the terminal section of the battery pack gets dirty, the operating time will be shortened.

● If the operating time becomes greatly reduced even immediately after recharging, the service life of the battery pack is nearly finished. Purchase a new battery pack.

Recharging

● Recharge the battery pack after completely discharging it. Repeated recharging with residual charge remaining could result in reduced battery capacity.

● If the battery capacity is reduced by repeating incomplete recharging, or recharging without discharging, once discharge the battery pack completely, then recharge it to restore the battery capacity.

● If the battery pack is recharged with its internal temperature raised immediately after use, recharging may not be performed completely.

6-4 Back Focus Adjustment

It is only necessary to perform this when the lens is attached for the first time or when focusing is not correct in both the telephoto and wide-angle positions. Adjust the viewfinder for sharpness first.

It is easier to adjust back focus when the subject is more than 3 meters from the camera. The optimal subject for this adjustment is a Siemens star chart.

Set the IRIS mode switch to M (Manual).

Set the zoom mode to MANU (Manual).

Open the iris ring. If the illumination is too strong, reduce it or move to a darker place.

Turn the zoom lever until the lens is at the maximum telephoto position.

Bring the subject into focus.

Set the lens to maximum wide-angle.

Loosen the back focus ring retaining knob.

View the same subject and adjust the back focus ring for the best possible focus.

Repeat steps 4. through 8. about three times for fine adjustment until the subject remains in focus in both the telephoto position and the wide-angle position.

Since the color of light (color temperature) varies depending on the light source, it is necessary to re-adjust the white balance when the main light source illuminating the subject changes.

● Do not adjust using any highly reflective objects, such as metal, etc., as this may result in improper white balance adjustment.

WHITE BALANCE ADJUSTMENT

Two kinds of white balance adjustment results can be stored in memories AUTO1 and AUTO2.

 Adjustment procedure

Set the following switches.

• Set the POWER switch to ON.

• Set the OUTPUT switch to CAM-AUTO KNEE OFF.

• 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 the white balance has been adjusted correctly, the approximate color 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 color on an object or the color temperature is not suitable.

Replace the color 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.

FULL-TIME AUTO WHITE BALANCE (FAW)

The FAW function adjusts the white balance value automatically as the lighting condition changes.

This mode is convenient when you have no time to adjust the white balance or when the camera is moved frequently in and out of places under different lighting conditions.

 Setting procedure

The FAW function can be activated with item "FAW" on the OPERATION MENU. This item allows allocation of the FAW function to one of the WHT.BAL switch positions, A, B or PRESET. ☞ See "OPERATION SCREEN" on page 73.

6-5 White Balance Adjustment

When a subject illuminated by a halogen lamp with a color temperature of 3,200K is shot while the color temperature conversion filter setting is set to 5,600K, a proper white balance adjustment and (FAW) Full Time Auto White balance may not be accomplishable. In this case, change the color temperature conversion filter setting to 3,200K and then carry out the white balance adjustment and (FAW) again.

• The F A W (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 color or not enough white color.

• The accuracy of the F A W (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.

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.)

REC

BATT

ALARM

● The unit enters stop mode at tape-end automatically, and if kept longer than 3 minutes or 30 minutes in this mode, SAVE mode is maintained. ☞ See “Menu No. 307: LONG PAUSE TIME” on page 69.

● If the VTR trigger button is pushed very quickly and repeatedly, or the POWER switch is moved immediately after being pressed, the viewfinder REC indicator lamp may blink and the GY-DV700W 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 you end a recording by turning the POWER switch or DC power supply OFF, or by removing the battery pack.

● Before recording a scene that is particularly important, perform test shooting to ensure that normal recording is possible.

● The power consumption can be reduced by setting the LIGHT switch on the display and TALLY lamp to OFF.

● 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 you find the noise 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.

Recording Time Codes by Slave-Locking the Built-in Time Code Generator with the External TCG

The built-in time code generator can be synchronized (slave-locked) with the SMPTE-standard LTC time code signal which is input through the TC IN connector. Once the slave locking has been carried out, the built-in time code generator runs even when the external time code input stops. Even when the power is switched off, it continues to run on the backup lithium battery.

Input the reference video signal into the external time code generator and the SYNC IN connector of this unit.

Input the SMPTE standard LTC time code signal into the TC IN connector.

Display time code on the counter display.

Set the switches in the TC GENERA T OR block as follows.

• Set the PRESET/REGEN switch to “PRESET”.

• Set the REC/FREE switch to “FREE”.

* While the REC/FREE switch is set to “REC”, slave-

locking will not take place.

 Set the related VCR Setup Menus.

• Set the VCR Setup Menu item No. 398 SSF MODE to “OFF”.

* If set to CUE mode or MARK mode, the slave-locking

will not take place.

• Set the VCR Setup Menu item No. 403 U-BIT SLAVE. Set to “TC&UB” when the user’s bits should also be slavelocked with the external time code generator.

• The framing mode will be automatically the same mode as the entered time code (drop frame of non-drop frame). During the non-drop frame mode, the NDF indicator will light on the display. During the drop frame mode, the DF indicator will light on the display.

Set and operate the external time code generator.

➡ The built-in time code generator is slave-locked with the

input external time code data. The SLAVE indicator lights on the display.

* If the external time code generator phase is not genlocked

with the phase of the camera video signals, the “SLAVE” display will flicker.

• Once slave locking has been made, the built-in time code generator keeps on running even when the external time code generator is stopped.

Note :

Do not connect or disconnect slaves during recording as this may disturb the servo lock.

Note :

When the power is switched ON while external sync signal is input, the screen moves in a vertical direction for a few seconds. This is not a malfunction.

10-1 Explanation of the S.S.F. Function

During recording, the S.S.F. function records the time code data at the point of time of a desired recorded scene in the unit's memory. Using the S.S.F. data stored in memory during after-processing of the recorded image allows efficient use of the tape. The S.S.F. function comprises the two modes CUE and MARK. Select the mode using the VCR Setup Menu item No. 398 S.S.F. MODE. When the VCR Setup Menu item No. 398 SSF MODE is set to CUE MODE or MARK MODE, the time code generator’s running method is internally set to the REGEN mode. When shooting in either of the modes, the time code data is stored in the unit's memory when the T AKE button on the front section is pressed. The model ID data, reel number, the number of each scene, and the time code data of IN points, OUT points, and CUE points are recorded as S.S.F. data.

 CUE Mode:

When the TAKE button is pressed at the desired scene during shooting of a given cut, the time code data at that point is stored as CUE data in the unit's memory. The time code data at the time when recording is started or stopped with the VTR TRIGGER button are stored in the unit’s memory as scene data.

 MARK MODE

During shooting of a given cut, press the TAKE button at beginning of a desired scene and then press the TAKE button again at the ending of the scene. The time code data at the point where the TAKE button is pressed first becomes the start point of the scene and time code data at the point where the TAKE button is pressed the second time becomes the ending point, and both are stored in the unit's memory.

• The number of scenes that can be registered is 127, and up to 238 registered scene numbers can be stored in memory. When either of these capacities is reached, the indication showing the number of registered scenes on the viewfinder screen becomes “M: - - -”.

• Up to 253 CUE points can be stored in memory. For each registered CUE point, the scene number decreases by two.

• When recording in the S.S.F. mode, the reel number (cassette number) for each cassette is recorded in the memory of the GY-DV700W and on tape.

• When the videocassette is replaced, new S.S.F. data is generated. S.S.F. data for six videocassettes can be stored in the internal memory. Before recording the seventh cassette in the S.S.F. mode, be sure that necessary data has been transferred from the memory to the non-linear editing controller or other component, or write data to the tape for each recording. ☞ See page 63.

• When recording is not performed in the S.S.F. mode, be sure to set the VCR SETUP MENU item No. 398 SSF MODE to OFF.

• Be sure to record S.S.F. data continuously on the same tape. It is not possible to rewind the tape for overwriting during the recording. If the tape is rewound in the middle of a recording, or after similar operation is performed, be sure to use the Scene End Cue Up function in order to ensure that new data are recorded in continuation of the existing data. ☞ See “About the Scene End Cue Up Function” on page 63.

* In the S.S.F. mode, the STBY/SAVE switch does not activate the VTR save mode. (The save mode is activated by a long

pause.)

Note:

• Leave an interval of at least 5 seconds between memorization of CUE data. If the TAKE button is pressed within 5 seconds from the previous point, the new point is not memorized.

• In the CUE mode, time code log data stored on the camera memory may differ from the actual time code recorded on tape at the time of pressing the TAKE button. This difference may be within 3 frames and it is not a malfunction.

Operation

S.S.F. data stored in the unitís memory can be written to the beginning of tape.

About the Scene End Cue Up Function

 When the CONTINUE button is pressed while the LOG

button is kept pressed in the stop mode, the tape winds to the S.S.F. data’s last OUT point, after which the unit enters the record-pause mode. (Scene End Cue Up) The FF button’s LED blinks during the Scene End Cue Up mode.

Precautions when writing S.S.F. data

• When S.S.F. data stored in the memory of the GYDV700W is written to the beginning of the rewound tape, approximately 5 seconds of recorded video and/or sound will be erased at the beginning. In the case of important recordings, leave 5 seconds or more of the tape unrecorded before starting recording.

• Writing of S.S.F. data should be done with the DC cable disconnected.

Once a tape with recorded S.S.F. data is ejected and then reinserted again, the previous data will be erased if new S.S.F. data are recorded on the tape.

Note:

The S.S.F . data in the memory of the main unit or that recorded at the beginning of the tape can be output via the VTR REMOTE connector using the RS-232C controller. For how to make connections for this, refer to “Connecting to a PC” on page 65.

In the stopped condition, the GY-DV700W answers with the S.S.F . data when it receives the RS-232C command D5h “S.S.F. DATA SENSE” from the PC. (Indication example) START ID NO: 2c97 REEL NO: 1818 SCENE MARK IN MARK OUT CUE 001M 00:00:00:16 00:00:04:19 002M 00:00:06:03 00:00:08:08 003C 00:03:15:17 00:03:57:00 004C 00:03:58:18 00:05:37:24 00:04:00:21 004C 00:03:58:18 00:05:37:24 00:04:07:22 004C 00:03:58:18 00:05:37:24 00:04:18:23 END

 When recording in the S.S.F. mode is completed, and the

cassette tape has not been taken out, the S.S.F. data stored in the memory of the GY-DV700W are output when the RS232C command D5h is received.

 If the tape recorded in S.S.F . mode is ejected and then loaded

again, the GY-DV700W rewinds the tape to the beginning and plays back for about 10 seconds when it receives the RS-232C command D5h. During the playback, the model lD data and reel number recorded on the tape are read. If corresponding S.S.F. data are found in the memory, these data are output. If corresponding S.S.F. data are not found in the memory, the tape is rewound to the beginning once more, and after about 20 seconds of slow playback the stop mode is entered. During slow playback, if S.S.F. data are written at the beginning of the tape, these data are read out, and after the stop mode is entered the S.S.F. data are output. ∗ If S.S.F. data does not exist, the 05h (NOT TARGET)

command is output.

Operation

Page 64

11. USING EXTERNAL COMPONENTS

ADJUSTMENT OF LENS IRIS

The lens iris can be adjusted using any of the following three methods.

• Automatic adjustment

Set the iris mode switch to "A" (Auto). The iris is adjusted automatically according to the brightness of the object.

• Manual adjustment

Set the iris mode switch to "M" (Manual). The iris can be adjusted manually by rotating the iris ring.

• Temporary auto iris adjustment

During manual iris adjustment, the auto iris adjustment mode is activated only while this button is held depressed.

 Changing the auto iris adjustment setup

Under special lighting conditions such as backlight, it is often appropriate to change the value set by the auto iris adjustment. This can be done by the following methods.

• Setting the AUTO IRIS LEVEL switch of the camera ☞ See "SWITCH FUNCTIONS" on page 83.

ZEBRA PATTERN DISPLAY DURING MANUAL ADJUSTMENT

By setting the ZEBRA switch to ON, oblique stripes (zebra pattern) can be displayed in the sections with a luminance level of 70% to 80% or sections with levels over 100% in the viewfinder. The zebra pattern can be used as a reference for manual iris adjustment. When adjusting the iris manually, adjust it so that the zebra patterns are displayed in the section that you want to stress in the subject.

• The initial setting is 70 to 80%. However , using the "ZEBRA" setting on the VF DISPLAY MENU, zebra patterns can be displayed in the sections with a luminance level of 85% to 95%, over 95% and over 100%.

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.

 Variable Scan [V.SCAN]

• Basic operation

Set the SHUTTER item on the OPERATION MENU screen to VARIABLE. Then move the SHUTTER knob upwards or downwards to change the shutter speed. (The speed is displayed on the viewfinder screen.)
