Camera CMOS image sensor phenomena

Appendix

Precautions

Note on laser beams

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

Do not subject to severe shocks

Damage to the case or internal components may result.

When finished using

Set the power switch to OFF.

Operation and storage environment

When turning on the camera in a cold environment, it may take about 15 minutes to reach full readiness, depending on the internal temperature of the camera. Store in a level place with air conditioning. 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

• Places with strong vibration

• Near strong magnetic fields

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

Note

The following phenomena that may occur in images are specific to image sensors. They do not indicate a malfunction.

White flecks

Although the image sensors are produced with high-precision 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 image sensors and is not a malfunction. The white flecks especially tend to be seen in the following cases:

• When operating at a high environmental temperature

• When you have raised the gain (sensitivity)

This problem may be alleviated by detecting white flecks and applying a correction function.

RPN automatic pixel restoration (APR)

• Executing automatic pixel restoration (APR) automatically detects pixels with residual point noise (RPN) above a certain threshold, and then applies a correction.

• RPN automatic pixel restoration (APR) takes approximately 8 minutes.

Preparation

• Turn on the power about 1 hour before starting APR to allow the camera to warm up.

• Close the lens iris, or remove the lens and attach the lens mount cap to the camera.

Procedure

Use the following procedure to run RPN automatic pixel restoration (APR) from an MSU or RCP.

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.

Components with limited service life

• 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 this part 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.

Standalone operation

The screen displayed when an UHCU-8300 unit is not connected is used to confirm menu settings. The PAINT adjustment functions are not available.

Set the [MAINTENANCE] button to the ON position so that the button becomes lit.

On the touch panel, select [Auto Setup] t [APR].

Note

Check that Auto Setup menu operation is enabled using the [Item Permission] screen of the MSU or RCP. For details, refer to the operation manual of the MSU or RCP.

Flicker

If recording is made under lighting produced by fluorescent, sodium, mercury, or LED lamps, the screen may flicker and colors may appear shifted.

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.

Error Messages

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

Note

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