GY-LS300CH INSTRUCTIONS
Notification of Changes 2
This is a notification on the addition of new features, feature
modifications and onscreen display changes. Please read this together
with the “INSTRUCTIONS”.
High speed shooting feature added
A moving subject can be effectively portrayed by shooting smooth slow
motion images.
“High-Speed” added to menu item [System]
“High-Speed” is added to [System] → [Record Set] → [Record Format]
→ [System].
Variable gain mode added
In addition to the 3 dB increment switching with the GAIN selection switch, it
is possible to make finer adjustments using the iris dial.
“Variable Gain” added to menu item [Iris Dial]
“Variable Gain” is added to [Camera Function] → [Iris Dial].
With this additional setting value, the name of the existing option “Iris/
Shutter/AE Level” is changed to “Selectable”.
If “Selectable” is selected, the iris dial that is normally used to adjust
the iris will be used to adjust the variable gain when the user button
assigned with Variable Gain is pressed. It is used to adjust the shutter
speed and the AE level when the shutter button and AE button are
pressed respectively. Pressing the respective buttons after adjustment
is complete confirms the setting value, and the iris dial resumes its iris
operation.
“Variable Gain” added to menu items [USER1] to [USER10] and
[LCD KEYJKHI]
“Variable Gain” is added to [Camera Function] → [User Switch Set] →
[USER1] to [USER10]/[LCD KEYJKHI].
System
HighSpeed
●
The [Rec Mode] is fixed at “Normal”.
● The following functions cannot be used when “High-Speed” is selected.
Network, Time Stamp Recording, Flicker Correction, Shading, Face
Detection and WDR
● The settings for slot B are fixed at the same as slot A.
● For the “TC Generator” setting, only “Rec Run” and “Regen” can be
selected.
● It is not possible to set a shutter speed that is slower than the frame
rate.
(Example: When 120/60p is selected, 1/120 to 1/10000 can be set.)
● The Variable Scan Mapping for the angle of view is fixed at “46%”.
● The sensitivity of high speed shooting is lower than normal shooting. In
order to capture more beautiful images, it is recommended to perform
shooting in a lighted environment.
● The remaining space on the media (recordable time to a SD card) runs
out faster than usual.
(Example: For 120/60p, as the recording speed is twice as fast as
usual, the remaining space on the media is reduced by approximately
double the speed.)

● While in the Variable Gain state, operating the GAIN selection switch
and turning off the power of the camera recorder will cancel the
Variable Gain mode. The gain setting assigned to the GAIN selection
switch will be used.
Manual iris mode added
High speed mode is added to the operation speed during Manual Iris
mode.
This allows for quick control using the iris dial.
[Manual Iris Mode] added to menu item
[Manual Iris Mode] is added to [Camera Function].
● Quiet:
Controls the iris smoothly. (Existing operation)
● Quick:
Controls the iris with high speed. Drive noise can occur depending
on the lens used.
● Auto:
“Quiet” is enabled during recording. For operations other than
recording, “Quick” is enabled to control the iris.
[Setting Values: ● Quiet, Quick, Auto]
● This setting may not be effective depending on the lens used.
Zoom operation expanded with Variable Scan Mapping
Besides using only the zoom lever at the grip to perform zoom
operations, it is also possible to do so using the zoom lever at the
handle, via remote and via web browser.
[Zoom Control] added to menu item
[Zoom Control] is added to [Camera Function].
This item is for selecting the control setting during the following zoom
operations.
● Grip on the camera unit
● Zoom lever at the handle of the camera recorder
● Control via remote
● Control via web operation
If “Power Zoom” is selected, it is possible to control the zoom operation
of a zoom lens equipped with electronic zoom control function. If
“VRSM-z” is selected, it is possible to zoom within the boundary of
Variable Scan Mapping by adjusting the scan range of the sensor.
The maximum zoom range is approximately 1.2x for “4K” and 2.3x for
“HD”. The images of the zoom display on the upper right corner of the
screen is displayed on the screen.
[Setting Values: Power Zoom, VRSM-z]
●
If “Grip Zoom” is set to “Focus”, the grip on the camera unit operates as a
focus control regardless of the [Zoom Control] setting.
“46%” added to setting value of Variable Scan Mapping
A fixed angle of view at “46%” for high speed shooting is added to the option
for normal shooting.
By using the “46%” setting to perform normal shooting, it is possible to shoot
at the same angle of view as high speed shooting.
● With this additional menu item, “VSM-z” is removed from the setting
values for [Camera Function] → [Grip Zoom].

3 Press the Set button ( ● ).
The screen returns to the streaming server setting screen.
Improved LCD backlight brightness
A brightness setting that is 2 times the existing brightness setting has
been added.
This improves the visibility and allows for more delicate focusing.
Setting Values added to menu item [LCD Backlight]
The brightness is improved by changing the setting value of [LCD/VF]
→ [LCD Backlight]. Increasing the value increases the brightness.
[Setting Values: -1, ● 0, +1]

65530 can be specified as the port number for the transmission
destination port.
● When [Type] is set to “MPEG2-TS/RTP” and [SMPTE2022-1 FEC] is
set to “On”, N+2 and N+4 port numbers are also used in addition to the
port number (N) specified for the transmission destination port.
→
