Preparing the Camera
This section outlines the basic preparations for the camera.
Adjusting the Black Balance
The first time you use the camera or if there is a noticeable change in the blacks of the video signal
(such as when ambient temperature changes considerably), you can have the camera adjust the black
balance automatically.
1 Set the Q switch to OFF and attach the body cap
to the lens mount.
If a lens was attached, remove the lens and replace the
body cap.
2 Set the Q switch to ON.
3 Press the ABB button.
Alternatively, you can use the [Camera Setup] > [ABB]
setting.
4 Select [OK] and then press the joystick.
The automatic black balance procedure will start. It will
take approximately 40 seconds when the frame rate is set to 23.98P.
5 When the message [Process completed successfully.] appears, press the joystick.
If the sensor is not completely shielded from light, [ABB error] will appear on the screen. Press the
joystick and repeat the procedure from the beginning.
NOTES
Adjusting the black balance is necessary in the following cases:
- After a long period of not using the camera.
- After sudden or extreme changes in ambient temperature.
- After resetting the camera's settings using either option in the [Other Functions] > [Reset]
setting.
During the adjustment of the black balance, you may notice some irregular displays appear on the
screen. This is not a malfunction.
Preparing the Lens
As much as possible, attach and remove the lens quickly and in a clean environment free of dust.
Refer also to the instruction manual of the lens used.
IMPORTANT
When attaching/removing a lens, avoid direct sunlight or strong light sources. Also, be careful not to
drop the camera or lens.
