Preface

Thank you very much for purchasing the multi-purpose digital
camera.

New 2/3q 2.2 million-pixel CCD is
employed.
[1920(H) k1080(V)]

• 2.2 million-pixel CCD is 2/3q size, being

compact and light-weight.

The camera section is equipped with a
high picture quality digital signal
processing LSI.

• 10 Bit, 74 MHz high picture quality digital

processing after the process circuit.

• New type CCD flaw correcting function.

• High reliability, multi-function, and

improvement of maneuverability are
realized.

• Max. +48 dB gain-up is possible.

(Memory addition, CCD pixel addition
mode included)

Performance improvement by new­generation FIT

• High sensitivity, wide dynamic range and
low smear are realized by CCD most
suited for high-quality pictures.

• High response and high resolution are
realized by driving H-CCD at 74 MHz.

Multiple functions

• Multi-function DTL such as high­luminance DTL and skin DTL.

• Two HD-SDI output lines.

This camera employs new 2/3q 2.2 million-pixel FIT CCD [1920(H)k1080(V)], realizing a
compact light-weight system including the optical system.
Also, the newly developed CCD having an FIT configuration suited for higher picture
quality and the development of low-noise, high-speed amplifiers have enabled the
realization of high sensitivity, high S/N ratio, and wide dynamic range.
With the newly developed digital signal processing LSI mounted on the camera head, it
performs signal processing such as GAMMA, KNEE and DTL matrix, and CCD flaw
correction based on a new system, intending to improve the maneuverability with
multifunction, high-quality, and high stability peculiar to a digital system.
Making the best use of the features of a small-sized self-contain camera, it is
accommodated in the camera housing and able to provide high-quality HD pictures as an
multi-purpose digital camera.

_ Color temperature and while balance adjustment (reference)

When carbon is burnt, it develops
various colors of light depending on the
temperature. Natural light can be
specified by color temperature reflecting
to the color developed when carbon is
burnt.
The light of 3,200K (K=Kelvin, –273°C
equals to absolute zero temperature 0K)
represents the same value (color) as
what develops when carbon is burnt at
3,200K (2,927°C). The relationship
between the color temperature of the
light source and weather condition is
indicated in the right figure. Let’s study
the difference of shooting an indoor
object from shooting one outdoors.
Studios are usually lighted with
incandescent lamps and the color
temperature of a white object in a studio
is around 3,200K. The color temperature
of a white object outdoors is around
6,500K. The former may look a little
yellowish while the latter appears
somewhat bluish when they are shot by a camera. However, the human eye does not
recognize color differences among these objects even under different ambient lighting
conditions, because of their adaptability to light.
The video camera reproduces color differences with high fidelity and the color of an
object somewhat different from what appears to the human eye.
Therefore, there is a need to adjust the white balance in order to correct differences
between color temperatures.

How to Adjust

_ White balance adjustment

Adjust the white balance after shooting a white object by at least 50% of the screen.
NOTE: If the white signal level is over 100% or less than 50%, the white balance may

not be normally adjusted.

Color temperature outdoors may vary depending on weather conditions.

_ Black balance adjustment

• Adjust it with the lens closed.
When the motor drive lens is controlled from the camera, adjusting the black balance
causes the lens to be automatically closed.

How to Adjust

_ Gen lock adjustment

When multiple cameras are used or the camera is combined with other equipment, it is
necessary to adjust the phase for phase matching by external synchronization.

• Horizontal phase adjustment

Observe the waveforms of externally synchronizing signal input (black burst signal)
and video signal output by a two-phenomenon oscilloscope, and make the horizontal
phase according to the camera menu.

1 Roughly adjust the synchronizing

signal input and video signal
output phases by H.PHASE­COARSE.

2 Finely adjust the synchronizing

signal input and video signal
output phases by H.PHASE-FINE.
