1. INTRODUCTION
1-2 Precautions for Proper Use
●
Do not point the lens or viewfinder directly at the sun or other strong light source.
• Eye damage could result.
• If the lens or viewfinder is left pointed at the sun, rays may collect inside the unit and cause damage or a fire.
●
When carrying the camera, be sure to hold the carrying handle. Holding the lens or viewfinder may result in damage.
CAUTION :
●
Supply voltage
Make sure that the power is between 11 V and 15 V DC. If
the power voltage is too low, abnormal color and increased
noise may occur. Do not exceed 15 V DC in any case, or the
unit could be damaged.
●
Allowable ambient temperature and humidity
Be sure to use the unit within the allowable temperature range
of 0°C to 40°C and a relative humidity of 30% to 80%. Using
the unit at a temperature or humidity outside the allowable
ranges could result not only in malfunction but the impact on
the CCD elements could be serious as small white spots
may be generated. When storing the GY-DV500 for a long
time, the storage temperatures should be -20°C to 60°C.
●
Strong electromagnetic waves or magnetism
Where there are strong electromagnetic waves or magnetism,
for example near a radio or TV transmitter, transformer, motor,
etc., the picture may contain noise and the colors may be
incorrect.
●
Use of wireless microphone near the camera
When a wireless microphone or wireless microphone tuner
is used near the camera during recording, the tuner could
pick up noise.
●
Avoid using or placing the unit in places;
• subject to extreme heat or cold;
• with excessive dirt or dust;
• with high humidity or moisture;
• subject to smoke or vapour such as near a cooking stove;
• subject to strong vibrations or on an unstable surface.
• also do not leave the unit for long hours in a parked car
under direct sunlight or near room heating equipment.
●
Protect the unit from being splashed with water (especially
when shooting in the rain).
●
Protect the unit from being wet when shooting on a beach.
In addition, salt and sand may adhere to the camera body.
Be sure to clean the camera after use.
●
Protect the unit against penetration of dust when using it in a
place subject to sandy dust.
●
Optical performance of lens
Due to the optical performance of the lens, color divergence
phenomena (magnification chromatic aberration) may occur
at the periphery of the image. This is not a camera
malfunction.
●
Noise may appear in the viewfinder when switching between
the playback picture and the EE picture.
●
Setup level
The video signal of the unit's video output is provided with a
setup level when shipped from the factory. If you want to turn
OFF the setup level, please consult the person in charge of
professional video equipment at your nearest JVC-authorized
service agent. The setup level is never attached to the video
signal recorded on the tape.
●
Use the unit in an upright position.
If placed on its side, heat release efficiency will deteriorate,
adversely affecting the tape transport. Depending on
circumstances the tape may also be damaged.
●
Vibrations
Colors may fail to appear during VCR playback in locations
subjected to vibrations.
●
Precautions for transportation
Do not drop or hit the unit against a hard object.
●
Remove the videocassette before transporting the unit.
●
Do not insert an object other than a videocassette in the
cassette insertion slot. Be sure to close the cassette cover
when the unit is not to be used for a long period
●
Do not set the POWER switch to OFF or remove the power
cable during recording or playback. Otherwise the tape may
be damaged.
●
When the unit is not in use, be sure to set the POWER switch
to OFF in order to reduce power consumption.
●
Cleaning the body: Wipe body with a dry, soft cloth. When it is
extremely dirty, soak the cloth in a solution of neutral
detergent, wring it out and then wipe. To prevent deformation
of the body, etc. and to avoid operation hazards, do not allow
volatile liquids such as benzine and thinner to touch the body,
and do not wipe it with a cloth soaked in such a liquid.
●
The camera may be unstable in the period immediately after
the power is turned on, but this is not a malfunction.
●
If a tape containing recorded PAL signals is played back, the
GY-DV500 automatically enters the STOP mode. If this
happens, remove the videocassette so that the unit returns
to its normal state.
