be displayed simultaneously or independently. The
zebra 1 can be set to the levels ranging from 70 to 90
IRE on the DSR-300 (or from 70 to 90% on the DSR-
300P) and the zebra 2 indicates the levels of 100 IRE
or more for the DSR-300 (or the levels of 100% or
more for the DSR-300P).

is displayed on the viewfinder screen.

5600 K by setting the FILTER control. The 3200 K
preset can be switched to the 3000 K preset when the

Settings at shooting are recorded onto the tape in real
time. This recorded data can then be used to reproduce
the same shooting conditions in subsequent shots. It
also makes it easier to identify the cause of problems
in previous shots.

equipped. You can turn the light on and off
automatically as you start and stop VCR operation.

minutes for standard size cassettes and 40 minutes for
mini cassettes.
