Other Video Controls:
Behind & above the LCD monitor, you’ll find several additional video (and some audio controls)
underneath. These are used less than those for iris, gain, focus, and white balance.
1) BARS - This button makes the camera display “Color Bars” which are a standard color
and brightness reference image, used for adjusting monitor settings.
2) OIS - The “Optical Image Stabilization” system helps to reduce the vibrations you see
when you shoot from a moving car, or hand-hold the camera. It won’t elimate violent
shaking, but it will minimize smaller vibrations.
3) ZEBRA - This tool helps you set Iris settings by superimposing a pattern of diagonal lines
over areas of the viewfinder picture that are above 80% of the maximum brightness of the
scene. When using the manual iris controls, you close the iris until only very bright areas of
the picture (sky) show the pattern. The lines are not recorded.
4) COUNTER and RESET/TC SET - These buttons let you adjust the “time counter”. There
are several options, including “Time Code” (TC) which shows hours, minutes, seconds,
and frames, and is the normal setting. Other options include a counter that starts at
0:00:00 and counts up to show total time recorded, and “User Bits” which can be set to
show date, time, or other user-selectable information.
5) USER 1, USER 2, and USER 3 - These buttons can be configured to switch on or off
various functions, according to the preference of the user. They are configured as:
a) USER I - “BACKLIGHT”. This function adjusts picture brightness when a subject has a
strong source of light in the background so that the picture is not too dark.
b) USER 2 - “DIGITAL ZOOM”, electronically “zooms” the image to increase the magnification
beyond the optical zoom, by as much as 10x. Reduces picture quality.
c) USER 3 - “SHOT MARK”. Allows the user to “mark” a good or bad shot. Places an indicator
on the “thumbnail” of the clip.
