Controls and Their Functions
Shooting (Recording)/Playback Function Section (4)
VTR START button
When this pressed, recording commences; when it is pressed again, recording stops. This but-
ton has the same function as the VTR button on the lens side.
VTR SAVE/STBY (tape protection) switch
This selects the power supply status while the VTR recording is temporarily stopped (REC
PAUSE).
SAVE:
This is the tape protection mode. The cylinder is stopped in the half-loading status.
Compared with the STBY position, less power is consumed and the unit can be oper-
ated longer using the battery. It takes longer for recording to commence after the VTR
START button is pressed in the SAVE position than in the STBY position.
When the switch is set to this position, the VTR SAVE lamp inside the viewfinder
lights.
STBY:
Recording commences immediately when the VTR START button is pressed.
MODE CHECK button
While this button is kept depressed, the camera’s setting status is displayed in the viewfinder. It
does not affect the camera’s output signals. This button can also be used for fine adjustment at
the setting menu during synchro scan mode.
SUPER IRIS button
This is used when backlight compensation is to be provided. When it is pressed, the switch
settings are displayed inside the viewfinder for 3 seconds. When it is pressed again, backlight
compensation is released.
Whether the super gain (30 dB) mode or the super iris (backlight compensation) mode is to
apply can be selected on the setting menu. This button can also be used for fine adjustment
during synchro scan mode.
Super gain:
When 30 dB is allotted to the SUPER IRIS button, DTL and other menu settings cannot be performed for this
30 dB.
