Mamiya RZ67 Pro II Body Only Camcorder User Manual


 
Troubleshooting
Uniquely designed to prevent errors, the RZ67 incorpo-
rates numerous safety features, so if you can not release the
shutter, or remove a lens or holder, it is most likely due to
user error rather than a camera malfunction. Should
something appear to go wrong, be sure to check the
following points.
When the shutter can not be released
1. Has the film been completely advanced to the first frame? Have
all the exposures already been made (10 with 120, 20 with 220)?
2. Has the Cocking Lever been advanced as far as it will go?
3. Has the Dark Slide been removed?
4. Have you locked the Shutter Release Button and forgotten?
5.Is there a battery in the Battery Chamber? Is the battery still good?
6. Is the "T" lever of the lens on "N"?
7. Is the camera speed dial on RBL and a RZ lens is on camera?
8.Is the camera speed dial on AEF and the AE Finder and a RZ lens
is not attached?
9. Have you used the mirror -up mode and red ring on the collar is
still visible after removing the cable release?
In the case of examples 1-3, an orange lamp will illuminate in the
viewfinder if an error has been made.
When the lens can not be removed
Have you pressed the Cocking Lever completely forward?
39
When the Film Holder can not be removed
Have you inserted the Dark Slide into the holder?
CAUTION:
The winder RZ-1 cannot be used on the RZ PRO II body.
When using the mirror-up operation in the B (bulb) mode, use
an optional double cable release.
The previous models of AE Prism Finders or AE Magnifying
Finders cannot be used with the RZ PRO
II unless their circuits
are modified. Contact your country's Mamiya Distributor for further
information.
The AE Prism Finder FE701 can be directly mounted on the RZ
PRO
II.
Electronic Flash Precautions
Electronic Flash units that have a high sync trigger voltage may
seriously damage the electronic circuitry of your RZ PRO
II. Flash
units with a maximum of 12 volts sync output trigger voltage are
safe for use. Please contact your flash manufacturer, or have your
local flash repair station test the sync line trigger voltage before
using with your RZ PRO
II. Older studio flash power packs are
particularly suspect of using high voltage sync trigger voltages,
sometimes feeding as much as 400 volts into your RZ PRO
II
sync terminal! To prevent this problem, your may consider using a
"filter" or regulating circuit between your power pack and sync
cord. Contact your local flash dealer or manufacturer for more
information about these devices.
