1. INTRODUCTION
PRECAUTIONS ON PROPER USE
• When recording an important event, be sure to try the
camera first before using it in order to check that the camera operates properly.
• JVC does not guarantee the contents of a recording if the
color video camera, VCR or video cassette malfunctions
during recording.
䡵 Unique phenomenon of CCD
䢇 SMEAR AND BLOOMING
Due to the physical structure of the CCDs in this camera it is
possible to induce vertical streaking which is called smear
when shooting a light source with high luminance.
Another effect is the spreading of light around a bright light
or object called Blooming.
To protect your image against lens flare (internal lens reflections), JVC has adopted a CCD which has less of these phenomenon, however, please be careful when shooting a light
source with high luminance.
䢇 When stripe pattern or lines are shot, they may become jag-
ged.
䢇 White dot
Whit dots may appear on a screen when operating at high
temperature.
䡵 Please turn off the power switch when camera is
not in use.
䡵 RS-232C INTERFACE
With regard to CONTROL COMMAND etc., please consult
with your local JVC authorized service dealer.
䡵 HANDLING PRECAUTIONS
䢇 Storage
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 strong vibrations or on an unstable surface
• subject to smoke or vapor such as near a cooking stove;
• also do not leave the unit for long hours in a parked car
under direct sunlight or near room heating equipment.
䢇 Ambient Temperature
Ambient temperature influence to an image sensing device.
Make sure to operate the camera in the temperature range
of –5˚C to 45˚C.
䢇 Ventilation holes
A malfunction may be caused if heat is not properly ventilated. Make sure that the cooling fan ventilation holes are not
blocked by an obstruction.
䢇 Effects of strong electric waves and magnetism
To avoid picture interference and color variation, do not use
the camera near a radio, TV antenna, transformers or motors which generate strong magnetic field.
䢇 COMPATIBLE LENSES
The lens mount for this camera, KY-F58 is a C-Mount, however, there remain some lenses adopting a C-Mount which
cannot be used because of camera limitations.
Refer to “MOUNTING THE OPTIONAL LENS (T14 x 5.5MD)
TO THE CAMERA HEAD” on page 9.
The KY-F58 is not equipped with a back focus adjustment
feature, therefore a lens with this feature should be mounted.
䢇 EFFECT FROM A WIRELESS MICROPHONE
When using a wireless microphone or a receiver, noise interference might be pick-up during recording. Please check this
before using.
䢇 CLEANING THE BODY
When cleaning the cabinet, wipe it with soft cloth.
Do not use benzene or thinner as these may deform or
discolor the cabinet surface.
To remove excessive dirt, clean the unit with a mild detergent diluted with water, then wipe it with dry cloth.
SMEAR
Vertical streaks trailing
from a bright object.

MOUNTING THE OPTIONAL LENS (T14 X 5.5MD) TO THE CAMERA HEAD
1.
Remove the lens mount cap for the camera.
Be careful no dust gets into the mounting hole when you
remove it.
2.
Attach the screw of the camera head mount section to that
of the lens mount section. Turn the mount fastening ring
slowly clockwise and fix the lens to the camera head by
screwing it firmly.
To change the attitude angle of the lens rotating direction.
1
Turn the mount fastening ring counter-clockwise from the
lens side.
2
Turn the lens slowly to adjust the attitude angle, and fasten it again firmly with the mount fastening ring.
3.
Plug in the lens cable to the LENS connector of the camera
head and fasten it firmly.
For more details, refer to the Instructions for the Lens.
Note:
The KY-F58 is not equipped with a lens.
When a lens other than the T14x5.5MD
of the 3-CCD C-mount lens is used, it may
cause the KY-F58 to malfunction. When
such a lens is used, the lens' height
should not be more than 4 mm above the
lens mount surface.
