8 Repeat Steps 5 to 7 until the lens is in focus at both
the telephoto and wide-angle positions.
9 Firmly tighten the F.f ring clamping screw.
Method to correct the waveform to be more flat by
combining the sawtooth-shaped waveform and the
parabola waveform when watching the respective
waveforms of R, G and B of the video signals.
White shading adjustment is disabled when the DS. GAIN
is turned ON or the LINE MIX GAIN function operates.
Adjust the white shading in the following manner after
turning OFF the DS. GAIN and releasing the LINE MIX
GAIN function.
Note
Coloring may occur in the vertical direction near where the
lens aperture is open even when the white shading has
been adjusted. This is something that is inherent to lenses
and optical systems and is therefore not indicative of a
failure or malfunctioning.
1 Attach the lens to the camera.
At this stage, do not forget to connect the lens cable.
2 Set the electronic shutter to OFF and the gain to “L (0

appropriate changes, and then close the menu
screen.
5 Set the ZEBRA switch on the viewfinder to ON.
6 Shoot a white sheet of paper with no unevenness of

such kinds of lighting tend to flicker, use a light source
which is free from flicker such as sunlight or a halogen
lamp.
7 Set the lens aperture control to manual, and adjust it
so that the zebra pattern covers the whole screen.
Check that the lens aperture is between F4 and F10.
Notes
z The zebra pattern will not cover the whole screen if
there is any unevenness in the lighting. In this case,
make adjustments to the position of the lighting, etc.

9 Repeat step 7.
10
Using the menu operation, open the <WHITE
SHADING> screen from the MAINTENANCE page
and a range of items from R H SAW item to B V PARA
item, so that the waveform is more flat.
11
When the lens has an extender or ratio converter,
repeat steps
7 - 9 to enable the extender or ratio
converter function. The camera-recorder stores, as
one lens file data item, three different correction

lens with a ratio converter, and a lens with neither of
them.
