Chapter 1 Overview — Before using the camera

Before using the camera

r When using this product during rain or snow or when at the beach, be careful that water does not get inside the camera recorder.

Water causes damage to the camera recorder and memory card. (Repair may be impossible)

r Keep the camera recorder away from devices (TVs, TV games, etc.) that produce magnetism.

f If you use the camera recorder near TVs, video and sound data may be distorted by electromagnetic waves. f Strong magnetic elds produced by speakers and large motors may cause damage to recorded contents and may distort images. f Electromagnetic waves emitted by microcomputers may have a harmful effect on the camera recorder and may corrupt video and sound data. f The camera recorder may not operate properly if it receives harmful effects from devices that produce magnetism. In this case, turn off the camera

recorder, and remove the battery. Next, attach the battery again. After that, turn on the camera recorder.

r Do not use the camera recorder near radio transmitters or high-voltage devices.

If you use the camera recorder near radio transmitters or high-voltage devices, the recorded video and sound data may suffer harmful effects.

r When using the camera recorder at the beach, etc., be careful that sand and dust do not get inside the camera recorder.

Sand and dust may damage the camera recorder and memory card. (Be careful when inserting and removing the memory card)

r When carrying the camera recorder, be careful not to drop it.

f Strong shocks will damage the camera recorder body and it may not operate properly.

r Do not apply insecticide or volatile materials to the camera recorder.

f If insecticide or volatile materials come into contact with the camera recorder, the camera recorder body may warp and the paint may come off. f Do not allow the camera recorder to remain in contact with rubber or vinyl objects for a long period of time.

r After using the camera recorder, be sure to remove the battery.

Be sure to remove the battery from the camera recorder. (If the battery is left in the camera recorder, it will continue to consume a small amount of electric current even when the power is turned off)

If the battery is left inside the camera recorder for a long time, it will over discharge and may become unusable even if it is recharged.

Do not remove the battery when the power is turned on.

Turn off the power and remove the battery after the operation lamp goes completely out.

r Take proper care of the battery terminal.

Do not allow dust or foreign objects on the battery terminal.

Also, if you drop the battery by mistake, make sure that the battery body and the terminal are not warped.

Inserting a deformed battery into the camera recorder or attaching it to the battery charger may cause damages on the camera recorder or battery charger.

r Cautions when throwing memory cards away or transferring them to others

Formatting memory cards or deleting data using the functions of the camera or a computer will merely change the le management information: it will not completely erase the data on the cards. When throwing these cards away or transferring them to others, either physically destroy them or use a data deletion program for computers (commercially available) to completely erase the data. Users are responsible for managing the data stored in their memory cards.

r Control panel and viewnder

f If the same image or letters are allowed to be displayed on the control panel for a long time, the image may be burned into the screen. It will return to

normal after leaving the camera recorder turned off for several hours.

f Condensation sometimes forms on the LCD of the control panel in locations subject to extreme temperature differences. If this happens, wipe with a

soft, dry cloth.

f If the camera recorder is very cold, the control panel will be slightly darker than normal immediately after the power is turned on. It will return to its

regular brightness when the temperature inside increases.

f Since the viewnder uses organic EL, if the same image or letters are allowed to be displayed for a long time, the image may be burned into the

screen. There is no problem with the recorded images.

Switch the screen by turning off the screen or by using the eye sensor, etc.

f The control panel and viewnder monitor (organic EL) are highly-precisely managed so that at least 99.99% of the dots are effective pixels and 0.01%

or less are invalid pixels and always lit. This is not a malfunction and it has no effect whatsoever on the recorded images.

r Do not point the eye piece of the lens and viewnder at the sun.

Doing so might damage the components inside.

r GPS

GPS (Global Position System) satellite is managed by the United States Department of State and its precision is sometimes intentionally changed.

Position it in a location where there is a good view of the sky and there is no inuence of obstacles such as roofs and trees, etc.

Depending upon the surrounding environment and the time, it may take a long time to position and errors may be larger.

r Caution regarding laser beams

The MOS sensor may be damaged if the MOS sensor is subjected to light from a laser beam.

Take sufcient care to prevent laser beams from striking the lens when shooting in an environment where laser devices are used.

Chapter 1 Overview — Before using the camera

r Note the following points.

f If you prepare to record important images, always shoot some advance test footage to verify that both pictures and sound are being recorded

normally.

f Should video or audio recording fail due to a malfunction of the camera or the P2 cards used, we will not assume liability for such failure. f Set up or check the calendar and time zone before recording. (page 33) These settings have an effect on the management and playback order of

the recorded contents.

Connect the external DC power supply to the <DC IN> terminal of the camera.

Turn on the power switch of the external DC power supply (if the external DC power supply has a power switch).

Turn the <POWER> switch of the camera to <ON>.

r External DC power supply

Connect after making sure that the output voltage of the external DC power supply is compatible with the rated voltage of the camera. Select an output amperage for the external DC power supply with a margin above the total amperage of the connected devices. The total amperage of connected devices can be calculated with the following formula. Total power consumption ÷ Voltage When the power of the camera is turned on, inrush current is generated. Insufcient power supply when turning on the power may cause a malfunction. We recommend that you use an external DC power supply that can assure double the capacity of the total power consumption of the camera and connected devices that are turned on by interlock when the power of the camera is turned on (such as lenses). For the DC cable, use a dual-core shielded wire of AWG16 (nominal cross section area 1.309 mm

f Make sure of the pin alignment of the DC output terminal of the external DC power supply and the camera <DC IN> terminal, and connect the polarity

NOTE

t When both the battery and the external DC power supply are connected, the power supply from the external DC power supply has priority. The battery

may be removed while using the external DC power supply.

t When using an external DC power supply, always turn the power switch of the external DC power supply on before turning the <POWER> switch of

the camera <ON>. If the operations are performed in reverse, the camera may malfunction because the external DC power supply output voltage rises too slowly.

t When switching the power supply from an external DC power supply to the battery, carefully remove the DC cable from the <DC IN> terminal.

Removing the cable quickly may temporarily stop the camera’s operation.

t When power is supplied from the <DC IN> terminal, the light circuit does not function. The light circuit can be used only when power is supplied from

the Anton/Bauer battery plate.

t When a battery is connected to the <DC IN> terminal, set [MENU] → [SYSTEM SETTINGS] → [BATTERY] → [EXT DC IN SELECT] to [BATTERY],

then set [FULL Volt], [NEAR END Volt], or [END Volt] according to the characteristics of the battery. However, in this the case, the percent (%) display will not be available for batteries with a battery level indicator function.

Loosen the F.f (Flange focus) ring clamping screw.

Set the zoom ring to the telephoto end position, either manually or by electric drive.

Aim the lens at the lens flange back adjustment chart and turn the distance ring to bring the chart into focus.

Set the zoom ring to the wide-angle end position and turn the F.f (Flange focus) ring to bring into focus.

At this time, do not move the distance ring.

Repeat steps 5 to 7 until the lens is in focus at both the telephoto and wide-angle positions.

Firmly tighten the F.f (Flange focus) ring clamping screw.

NOTE

t F.b (Lens ange back) ring may be indicated on some lenses as the F.f (lens ange focus) ring.

White shading compensation

Adjusting the white shading

This is a method of combining the sawtooth shaped waveform and parabola waveform to compensate to a atter waveform based on the respective R, G and B waveforms of the video signal.

We recommend adjusting the R, G and B waveforms in the horizontal and vertical directions while monitoring them on the waveform monitor.

Make sure to adjust the white shading after disabling the variable frame rate.

Set the screen.

1) Shoot a white sheet of paper with no unevenness of color for the whole screen.

2) Set the lens aperture to manual, and adjust it so that the zebra pattern covers the whole viewfinder screen.

f Make sure that the lens aperture control is between F4 and F11. f Adjust the position of the lighting because the zebra pattern will not cover the whole screen if there is any unevenness in the lighting. f Make adjustments to avoid several light sources of different color temperature (e.g. uorescent lights and halogen lamp) from illuminating on

the white paper.

Adjust the white balance/black balance.

1) Make sure that white balance is set to [PRESET].

f When checking from the control panel

Select [WB] → [PRESET] from the HOME screen.

Perform Steps 2-2) again.

Adjust white shading.

1) From [MENU] → [CAMERA SETTINGS] → [WHITE SHADING], adjust [H.SAW] through [V.PARA] to create a flatter waveform.

If the lens is equipped with an extender function, turn on the extender function and repeat steps 2 to 5.

Compensation values are stored on the camera as a single lens le data using two patterns for when the lens is equipped and not equipped with an extender pattern. Adjustment values are saved in memory, so there is no need to re-adjust white shading even after turning the camera off.

NOTE

t Coloring may occur in the vertical direction near where the lens aperture is open (OPEN) even when the white shading has been adjusted, but this is

something that is inherent to optical systems. This is not a malfunction.

t Since uorescent lights, mercury lamps, and other such kinds of lighting tend to icker, use a light source which is less subject to ickering such as

sunlight or a halogen lamp.

t Make adjustments to the position of the lighting, etc. also when the lens aperture is not between F4 and F11. t Make sure to leave the shutter OFF.

How to handle data recorded on P2 cards

P2 cards are semiconductor memory cards that are used as the recording medium in the professional video production and broadcasting devices that make up the DVCPRO P2 series.

f Since data recorded in the P2 format is in a le format, they have excellent compatibility with computers. The le structure is a unique format, which

in addition to video and audio data in MXF les contains various other important information items. The folder structure links data recorded in the P2 format as shown below.

– 41 –

Page 42

Chapter 4 Video Recording and Color Grading — P2 card

Drive:\

CONTENTS

AVCLIP

AUDIO

CLIP

ICON

PROXY

VIDEO

VOICE

LASTCLIP.TXT*

All these folders are required.

If even part of this information is modified or deleted, the data may no longer be recognized as P2 data, or the card may no longer be able to be used with P2 devices.

This is the file to which the information of the final clip that was recorded with the P2 device is written.

NOTE

t P2 cards formatted on devices other than microP2 memory card compatible devices do not have the AVCLIP folder. For P2 cards without the AVCLIP

folder, the folder will automatically be created when recording is performed on microP2 memory card compatible devices.

t When transferring data from a P2 card to a computer, or when rewriting data saved on a computer back to a P2 card, to prevent data loss be sure to

download the special “P2 Viewer Plus” software. For details on downloading P2 Viewer Plus and the operating environment, visit the support desk at the following website: http://pro-av.panasonic.net/

t Follow the steps below to use general IT tools such as Microsoft Windows Explorer or Apple Finder to transfer the data to a computer. Be sure to use

P2 Viewer Plus to write data back to a P2 card.

- Transfer the corresponding CONTENTS folder and LASTCLIP.TXT le together as a set.

- Do not transfer individual les from the CONTENTS folder.

- When copying, copy the LASTCLIP.TXT le at the same time as the CONTENTS folder.

- When transferring the data in multiple P2 cards to a computer, create a folder for each P2 card to prevent clips with the same name from being overwritten.

- Do not delete data from the P2 card.

- Be sure to format P2 cards on the camera or the latest P2 Viewer Plus.

Formatting a P2 card

Select the slot of the memory card you want to format from [MENU] → [SYSTEM SETTINGS] → [CARDS/MEDIA] → [FORMAT

CARD].

f Select [EXIT] when you do not wish to format the card.

Chapter 9 Other Useful Functions — Getting position information using the GPS

Getting position information using the GPS

The camera has a built-in GPS. Positioning information can be recorded through GPS.

The GPS antenna is placed on top of the camera module.

When using the GPS function, do not cover the top of the camera module with metallic objects.

f [GPS] ashes in the viewnder screen when positioning preparation is being performed. f When positioning is complete, [GPS] lights up and GPS signal reception strength is indicated by 4-level bars. f If the time is received using GPS, the time of the internal clock is maintained accurately based on the time received (Greenwich mean time) and the

time zone.

f If the date and time display is different from the local time, the time zone setting may be incorrect. Recheck the time zone settings.

NOTE

t If it cannot position even after waiting several minutes, it means that the GPS signals are weak and difcult to receive. t Position in the open space with a clear view of the sky. t Detecting altitude may take more time than detecting latitude and longitude. t The followings are locations where the signals from the GPS satellite cannot be properly received. Thus, you may not be able to position or you have

large margin of errors.

- Indoors

- Near buildings or a canyon of buildings

- In underground shopping areas

- In forests

- While moving in trains or automobiles

- Inside tunnels

Chapter 9 Other Useful Functions — Handling setting data

Handling setting data

Handling SD memory cards

The SD memory card can be removed and inserted, either before or after the power is turned on.

Inserting SD memory cards

Fig. 1 Fig. 2

Open the slot cover. (Fig. 1)

Insert the SD memory card into the SD memory card slot with the label side of the card upward, and close the slot cover. (Fig. 2)

NOTE

t The SD memory card must be inserted with the correct side facing the SD card slot. If the SD memory card is hard to insert, it may be reversed or

upside-down. Do not force it into the slot. Check the orientation of the card before reinserting it.

t Cautions when using SD memory cards

- On the camera, use SD memory cards that conform to the SD standard, SDHC standard, or the SDXC standard.

- MMC (Multi Media Card) cannot be used. (Bear in mind that taking pictures may no longer be possible if you use them.)

- When using miniSD/microSD cards with the camera, always install the adaptor specially designed for miniSD/microSD cards. (The camera will not

work properly if only the miniSD/microSD adaptor is installed. Make sure that the card has been inserted into the adaptor before use.)

- Use of Panasonic SD memory cards and miniSD/microSD cards is recommended. Be sure to format cards on the camera before use.

- Refer to our support desk at the following website for the latest information not included in this document.

http://pro-av.panasonic.net/

- SDHC memory cards are a standard that was established in 2006 by the SD Association for large-capacity memory cards that exceed 2 GB.

- SDXC memory cards are a standard that was established in 2009 by the SD Association for large-capacity memory cards that exceed 32 GB.

Removing SD memory cards

After opening the slot cover and making sure that the busy lamp is not illuminated, push the SD memory card further into the camera and then release. This releases the SD memory card from the card slot. Remove the SD memory card and close the slot cover.

Note the following points when using or storing memory cards.

f Avoid high temperature and humidity. f Avoid water droplets. f Avoid charging with electricity.

Store the SD memory card with the card still inserted into the camera and with the slot cover closed.

Performing operations on SD memory cards

If the SD memory card that was formatted in a standard other than the SD/SDHC/SDXC standards on a device other than the camera is inserted, [LOAD] or [SAVE] operation of the le cannot be performed. Format the SD memory card again.

Chapter 9 Other Useful Functions — Setting the time data

Setting the time data

The camera provides time codes, user bits, and date and time (real time) data as time data, and they are recorded in the frame in sync with video. They are also recorded as data for clip metadata les.

Denition of time data

r Time code

You can switch to [REC RUN] and [FREE RUN] with the control panel.

f [FREE RUN]: The time code always advances even when the power is turned off, and it can be handled in the same way as time. It can also be

recorded slaved to the time code input to the <TC IN/OUT> terminal.

f [REC RUN]: Can be regenerated and recorded into the time code of clips recorded to P2 cards as a continuous value.

NOTE

t In the following case, the values are not continuous.

- When deleting recorded clips

- When switching to 24PN and 30PN (25PN)

- When recording is interrupted due to a malfunction of [REC WARNING], etc. during recording.

r User bits

Two types of user bits are built in.

f LTC UB: Recorded as LTC and output from the <TC IN/OUT> terminal. It is also output as LTC of the SDI signal. f VITC UB: Recorded as VITC. It is also output as VITC of the SDI signal.

LTC UB can select and record user set values, time, year/month/day, the same value as time codes, camera frame rate information, and input value of external signals from the <TC IN/OUT> terminal, etc.

VITC UB records the camera frame rate information.

The LTC UB value of the recording start time can be recorded on the user bits of the clip metadata.

r Duration (clip length) counter

This counter counts from 0 each time recording starts.The duration of the recorded clip is displayed after recording.

r Date/time (real time)

f Based on the internal clock, year, month, day, and time can be displayed on the viewnder/LCD monitor and on the image output from the <VF SDI>

terminal, etc.

f The internal clock is used for measuring the free run time code while the power is off and as time and year/month/day data of the user bits. It is also

used as the reference for le generation times during clip recording, which determine the sorting order of thumbnails and the order of playback.

f It is also used to generate clip metadata and UMID (Unique Material Identier).

For details, refer to “Setting the date/time of the internal clock” (page 33).

User bits settings

Sets the user bits to be recorded in the sub code area with the control panel.

Item Description

[USER]

[TIME] Records the time measured by the internal clock.

[DATE] Records the hour digit of year/month/day/date-time measured by the internal clock.

[EXT INPUT] Records the user bits values currently entered to the <TC IN/OUT> terminal.

[TCG] Records the time code value.

[FRAME RATE] Records the camera photo frame rate information.

Records internal user values. The user value can be set from [MENU] → [REC SETTINGS] → [TC] → [SET UB], the user value can be set. Setting values are held even when the power is turned off. For details, refer to “How to input user bits” (page 78).

When playing back clips recorded in native format, the same frame rate information as VITC UB is output regardless of the recorded value. Use at this setting when the editing device such as a computer uses the frame rate information of the user bits.

How to input user bits

By setting user bits, information such as memos (date, time) up to eight digits long (hexadecimal) can be recorded.

Press the <TC> button to display the TC screen.

From the user bits display, select [User] in [UB MODE].

Select [SET].

The [TC SET] screen is displayed.

Set the user bits using the jog dial button.

Press the jog dial button to confirm the user bits setting value.

NOTE

t If you exit the user bits setting screen without pressing the jog dial button, the set values will be disabled.

NOTE

t If you exit the time code setting screen without pressing the jog dial button, the set values will be disabled.

Time code function during battery replacement

Even during battery replacement, the backup mechanism functions, allowing the time code generator to continue operating.

When each item of the system mode has been changed, the time code of free run may shift. Turn on the power again, check the time code, and reset it, if necessary.

Time codes in variable frame rate

f In 24PN, recording is 24 frames, output is 30 frames, which matches 2:3 pull-down images. f The advance rate of the recording and output time code matches real time only when the image frame rate is 24P. When 60P, recording advance rate

is 60/24 times. In this case, the camera switches to [REC RUN] xed operation and the time code value that is output when recording starts matches the recording time code.

f It is the same when shooting in modes other than 30P when in 30PN and shooting in modes other than 25P when in 25PN.

Externally locking the time code

The internal time code generator of the camera can be locked to an external generator.

Example of connections for external locking

As shown in the gure, connect both the reference video signal and the reference time code.

Page 80

Chapter 9 Other Useful Functions — Setting the time data

Reference video signal

Reference time code

External lock operation procedure

To externally lock the time code, follow the steps below.

Press the <TC> button to display the TC screen.

<GENLOCK IN> terminal

<TC IN/OUT> terminal

From the time code display, select [Free Run] in [Free/Rec].

From [MENU] → [REC SETTINGS] → [TC] → [TC IN/OUT SEL], select [TC IN].

Enter the external time code from the <TC IN/OUT> terminal.

[SLAVE] is displayed on the TC screen. The [TCG] characters on the HOME screen are displayed in black and white inversion.

f For the reference video signal, enter the SDI signal which is the same format as the system signal format ([FREQUENCY], [PIXEL]). f When the system frequency is 59.94p or 50p, the time code may be out of sync by one eld. f When the input reference signal of generator lock is disrupted, recording cannot be performed normally. [TEMPORARY PAUSE IRREGULAR SIG]

is displayed in the viewnder screen, and the clip is divided. The synchronization with the time code is also not guaranteed. Recording will resume when the signal returns to normal.

f When the time code is externally locked, the time code is instantaneously locked to the external time code, the same value as the value of the

external time code is output to the counter display area. Do not set to the recording mode for several seconds until the sync generator has stabilized. Furthermore, lock the time code to the <TC IN/OUT> terminal signal.

f If you execute the slave once, even if there is no longer <TC IN/OUT> terminal and <GENLOCK IN> terminal input, the slave status is maintained.

However, in the following cases, the slave status will be released.

- When [TC SET] is executed

- When the power is turned off

- When switched [DF]/[NDF]

- When set to [Rec Run]

- When a variable frame rate is applied

f The SDI input time code cannot be slave-locked (synchronized). f If [EXT INPUT] is selected in [UB MODE] of the UB screen, regardless of the time code slave status, the user bits can be matched with the user

bits input in the <TC IN/OUT> terminal. In this case, [UBG] characters are black and white inverted.

Cautions when switching the power supply from the battery to the external power supply while an external lock is active

To keep on the time code generator power supply continuously, connect an external power supply to the <DC IN> terminal and then remove the battery pack. If the battery pack is removed rst, there is no guarantee that the time code will stay externally locked.

Supplying the time code externally

You can supply the output time codes to an external recording device from the camera by matching the camera images or the replayed images.
