Shooting

Basic Procedure for Shooting

1 Turn the camera on. 2 Set the FILTER knob and COLOR TEMP. button

appropriately for the lighting conditions.

Filter settings

FILTER knob Lighting conditions

1 (Clear) Indoor shooting

2 (1/4 ND) Outdoor (cloudy or rainy) or indoor shooting

when you wish to reduce the depth of field

3 (1/16 ND) Outdoor shooting in daytime

4 (1/64 ND) Outdoor shooting when you wish to reduce the

depth of field, or especially under bright outdoor ambient light

a) Depth of field: This is the range over which the subject is sharply in

focus. If the range is narrow, the depth of field is called “shallow focus.” If the range is wide, the depth of field is called “deep focus.”

From the viewpoint of the characteristics of lenses, shooting with an F-stop value in the range of F4 to F8 is generally recommended for good quality pictures. Set the FILTER knob to bring the iris setting into that range. However, this may not apply when special composition is desired.

Level indicator (display position and operation can be adjusted)

Area marker to display the detection area of the focus (size and position can be adjusted)

3 To use an area marker, select AREA MARKER and set

to ON.

Setting AREA MARKER to ON displays an area marker indicating the focus detection area on the monitor. You can set the size and position of the detection area with the menu items below. SIZE: Change the size of the detection area. (If the detection

area size is too large, both the subject and the background are included in the area, making the indicator display deviate from the subject.)

POSITION: Roughly set the position of the detection area. POSITION H: Fine adjustment of the position of the detection

area in the horizontal direction.

POSITION V: Fine adjustment of the position of the detection

area in the vertical direction.

Notes

• The level indicator and effect area marker cannot be displayed at the same time. The one that was set to ON last takes precedence.

• The area marker and aspect safety marker cannot be displayed at the same time. The one that was set to ON last takes precedence.

• When displaying the focus assist indicators, check that the flange focal length (flange back) has been precisely adjusted (see page 21).

The focus setting where the indicator shows the maximum level is the best focus setting. (The width of the indicator substantially changes depending on the picture content and shooting environment. Adjust using GAIN and OFFSET, as required.)

Setting the Camera Outputs

You can specify video signals directly output from the camera using the menu.

Note

The MAIN (camera picture), RET (return video), or VF (the same picture as that displayed in the viewfinder) settings are common to SD-SDI and VBS. Different signals cannot be output.

The menu pages used for the output settings are registered in the USER menu by factory default.

• <SDI OUT> (U17)

• <TEST OUT> (U16)

For details about the USER menu, see “Editing the USER Menu” (page 34).

Set the items on each page as follows.

Outputting the same image as that in the viewfinder

With HD-SDI, you can obtain a signal that includes the same information as that being displayed in the viewfinder according to the settings for VF MARKER, CHARACTER, VF DETAIL, ZEBRA, etc. The individual ON/OFF and other settings for adding information are common to those for the viewfinder. The output is synchronized with the switching of Y, R, G, B, or return signal in the viewfinder.

Adjusting the Audio Level

When the HXCU-FB70 is connected

The input levels from audio sources connected to the AUDIO 1 IN and AUDIO 2 IN connectors can be adjusted using a remote control panel connected to the CCU or the CONFIGURATION menu on the CCU. When the audio input selector switch is set to MIC, the level can be adjusted between 20 dB and 60 dB in steps of 10 dB. When the audio input selector switch is set to LINE, the level cannot be adjusted.

In standalone operation mode

The input level from audio sources connected to the AUDIO 1 IN and AUDIO 2 IN connectors can be adjusted using the INTERCOM LEVEL knob on the front of the camera. When the audio input selector switch is set to MIC, the level can be adjusted between 20 dB and 60 dB in steps of 10 dB. When the audio input selector switch is set to LINE, the level cannot be adjusted. Set the gain to avoid clipping the audio signal by monitoring the audio level meters and waveforms. You can assign a function to the INTERCOM LEVEL knob on the <VR ASSIGN> page in the OPERATION menu.

Appendix

Phenomena specific to CMOS image sensors

The following phenomena that may appear in images are specific to CMOS (Complementary Metal Oxide Semiconductor) image sensors. They do not indicate a malfunction.

Usage Precautions

Note on laser beams

Laser beams may damage the CMOS image sensors. If you shoot a scene that includes a laser beam, be careful not to let a laser beam become directed into the CMOS image sensors.

Do not subject to severe shocks

Damage to the case or internal components may result.

After use

Set the power switch to OFF.

Operation and storage environment

Store in a level, ventilated place. If the unit gets wet, make sure it is completely dry before storage. Avoid use or storage in the following places:

• Extremely hot or cold places

• Places with high humidity

• Locations subject to violent vibration

• Near strong magnetic fields

• In places where it receives much direct sunlight, or near heating equipment

White flecks

Although the CMOS image sensors are produced with highprecision technologies, fine white flecks may be generated on the screen in rare cases, caused by cosmic rays, etc. This is related to the principle of CMOS image sensors and is not a malfunction. The white flecks especially tend to be seen in the following cases:

• When operating in high-temperature environment

• When the master gain (sensitivity) has been increased The problem may be alleviated by executing automatic black balance adjustment.

Aliasing

When fine patterns, stripes, or lines are shot, they may appear jagged or flicker.

Flicker

If recording is made under lighting produced by discharge tubes, such as fluorescent, sodium, or mercury-vapor lamps, the screen may flicker, colors may vary, or horizontal stripes may appear distorted.

On condensation

If the unit is suddenly taken from a cold to a warm location, or if ambient temperature suddenly rises, moisture may form on the outer surface of the unit and/or inside of the unit. This is known as condensation. If condensation occurs, turn off the unit and wait until the condensation clears before operating the unit. Operating the unit while condensation is present may damage the unit.

Parts with limited life span

• The fan and battery are consumable parts that will need periodic replacement. When operating at room temperature, a normal replacement cycle will be about 5 years. However, this replacement cycle represents only a general guideline and does not imply that the life expectancy of these parts is guaranteed. For details on parts replacement, contact your dealer.

• The life expectancy of the electrolytic capacitor is about 5 years under normal operating temperatures and normal usage (8 hours per day; 25 days per month). If usage exceeds the above normal usage frequency, the life expectancy may be reduced correspondingly.

In such cases, set the flicker-reduction function to AUTO (see page 46). If the frame rate selected for recording is close to the power-supply frequency, flicker may not be reduced sufficiently even if you activate the Flicker-Reduction function. In such cases, use the electronic shutter.

Focal plane

Owing to the characteristics of the pickup elements (CMOS image sensors) for reading video signals, subjects that quickly move across the screen may appear slightly skewed.

Flash bands

The luminance at the top and bottom of the screen may change when shooting a flashlight beam or a light source that quickly flashes.

To prevent electromagnetic interference from portable communications devices

The use of portable telephones and other communications devices near this camera can result in malfunctions and interference with audio and video signals. It is recommended that the portable communications devices near this camera be powered off.

Security

SONY WILL NOT BE LIABLE FOR DAMAGES OF ANY KIND RESULTING FROM A FAILURE TO IMPLEMENT PROPER SECURITY MEASURES ON TRANSMISSION DEVICES, UNAVOIDABLE DATA LEAKS RESULTING FROM TRANSMISSION SPECIFICATIONS, OR SECURITY PROBLEMS OF ANY KIND.

Depending on the operating environment, unauthorized third parties on the network may be able to access the unit. When connecting the unit to the network, be sure to confirm that the network is protected securely.

Cleaning the Viewfinder

Use a dust blower to clean any dust from the surface of the screen.

Note

Do not use organic solvents, such as thinners.

Error Messages

If a problem occurs during operation, a warning message is displayed.

Note

To display a message, set the DISPLAY/MENU switch to DISPLAY or MENU.

Message Description
