1. INTRODUCTION  
PRECAUTIONS ON PROPER USE  
HANDLING PRECAUTIONS  
Storage  
When recording an important event, be sure to try the  
camera first before using it in order to check that the cam-  
era operates properly.  
Avoid using or placing the unit in places;  
• subject to extreme heat or cold;  
• with excessive dirt or dust;  
• JVC does not guarantee the contents of a recording if the  
color video camera, VCR or video cassette malfunctions  
during recording.  
• with high humidity or moisture;  
• subject to strong vibrations or on an unstable surface  
• subject to smoke or vapor such as near a cooking stove;  
• also do not leave the unit for long hours in a parked car  
under direct sunlight or near room heating equipment.  
Unique phenomenon of CCD  
SMEAR AND BLOOMING  
Due to the physical structure of the CCDs in this camera it is  
possible to induce vertical streaking which is called smear  
when shooting a light source with high luminance.  
Another effect is the spreading of light around a bright light  
or object called Blooming.  
Ambient Temperature  
Ambient temperature influence to an image sensing device.  
Make sure to operate the camera in the temperature range  
of –5˚C to 45˚C.  
To protect your image against lens flare (internal lens reflec-  
tions), JVC has adopted a CCD which has less of these phe-  
nomenon, however, please be careful when shooting a light  
source with high luminance.  
Ventilation holes  
A malfunction may be caused if heat is not properly venti-  
lated. Make sure that the cooling fan ventilation holes are not  
blocked by an obstruction.  
SMEAR  
Vertical streaks trailing  
from a bright object.  
Effects of strong electric waves and magnetism  
To avoid picture interference and color variation, do not use  
the camera near a radio, TV antenna, transformers or mo-  
tors which generate strong magnetic field.  
Bright object  
(i.e. light bulb, sun, etc.)  
COMPATIBLE LENSES  
The lens mount for this camera, KY-F58 is a C-Mount, how-  
ever, there remain some lenses adopting a C-Mount which  
cannot be used because of camera limitations.  
Refer to “MOUNTING THE OPTIONAL LENS (T14 x 5.5MD)  
TO THE CAMERA HEAD” on page 9.  
BLOOMING

ged.  
White dot  
EFFECT FROM A WIRELESS MICROPHONE  
When using a wireless microphone or a receiver, noise inter-  
ference might be pick-up during recording. Please check this  
before using.  
Whit dots may appear on a screen when operating at high  
temperature.  
Please turn off the power switch when camera is  
not in use.  
CLEANING THE BODY  
When cleaning the cabinet, wipe it with soft cloth.  
Do not use benzene or thinner as these may deform or  
discolor the cabinet surface.  
To remove excessive dirt, clean the unit with a mild deter-  
gent diluted with water, then wipe it with dry cloth.  
RS-232C INTERFACE  
With regard to CONTROL COMMAND etc., please consult  
with your local JVC authorized service dealer.  
Note:

Normal (Field) Mode  
During normal recording, the CCD’s storage time is approx. 1/60 sec. [U Ver.] or 1/50 sec. [E Ver.] in the field mode. With the odd  
number fields, the total electric charge of the odd number lines and even number lines of the CCD are output to the odd number line  
(reading two lines at a time), with the even number field, they are output to the even number line.

High Resolution (Frame strage) Mode (Reading every line)  
The CCD storage time is approx. 1/30 sec. [U Ver.] or 1/25 sec. [E Ver.] with the High Resolution mode, which is twice that of the  
Normal mode. However there is approx. 1/60 sec. [U Ver.] or 1/50 sec. [E Ver.] (one field) difference in the output timings between  
odd number line and even number line.With the odd number fields, electric charge of the odd number line is only output to the odd  
number line, and with the even fields, the electric charge of even lines is only output to the even number line. When recording  
frames, still picture can be shot at all lines by combining with a FLASH.  
With this mode, the vertical resolution is improved however, after-image lag will increase compared to that of the normal mode.

TECHNICAL INFORMATION (Contd)  
Operations Principles of the Electronic Shutter  
(with the 1/500 sec. setting)  
SLOW SHUT Function  
This function is used to record an object brighter than it ap-  
pears in a dark place.  
Electric charge is stored in the CCD image sensing device only  
for a 1/500 sec. before the signal is read from the CCD image  
sensing device. At this time the electric charge stored previ-  
ously is discharged to another electrode.This process enables  
shutter operations with 1/500 sec.  
This function adopts a system which acquires higher electric  
charge by taking a longer time for storing electric charge into  
the CCD image device, not that the system increases GAIN  
electrically.This enables the recording of an image with high  
sensitivity even under conditions of less light.  
Vertical blanking period  
The max. storage time is approx. 8 sec. (240 frames [U Ver.]  
or 200 frames [EVer.] ). One frame image is output for several  
frames, therefore, the video output signals are latched into a  
memory by using a WEN signal which is output at the same  
time. On a monitor, the movement of the object looks like the  
ones taken under a strobe shot

Caution for electric shutter mode  
Video output  
signal  
• On a monitor, the movement of the object looks like the ones  
taken under a strobe shot because an image of 1/500 sec.is  
detected every 1/60 sec. [U Ver.] or 1/50 sec. [E Ver.].  
• Flicker occurs under a light such as fluorescent lamp which  
lights cyclically. Adopting a light like an incandescent lamp  
which lights constantly is therefore necessary.  
WEN output  
signal  
Note:  
• With the AUTO IRIS MODE, the normal video level can-  
not be used. Set to the MANUAL IRIS MODE and adjust  
the diaphragm of the iris.  
• By switching the HI-RESO mode, the FIELD OUTPUT  
and FLAME OUTPUT can be selected.  
• With the 1/500 sec. shutter mode, the storage time of the  
CCD image device is approx. 1/8 [U Ver.] or 1/10 [E Ver.] of  
that of normal the mode, and also the sensitivity is 1/8 [U  
Ver.] or 1/10 [EVer.] of that of the normal mode.This causes  
a shortage of light, so that it is recommended to increase  
the light volume by increasing the illumination to 800% [U  
Ver.] or 1000% [EVer.] or opening the lens iris about 3 steps.  
• When the flame number is increased, noise may also  
increase. Set it to the appropriate value.

ALC stands for automatic level control, and EEI means shutter iris  
control.With FULL AUTO mode, it adopts a system for maintaining  
a certain level of video by combining the lens auto iris, the continu-  
ous variable electronic shutter (EEI) and the automatic sensitivity  
adjustment circuit (ALC).  
The automatic sensitivity adjustment circuit works under low illumi-  
nance, and the electronic shutter works under high illuminance.  
Moreover, when the iris is set to AUTO, sensitivity, the iris and the  
electronic shutter change continuously to acquire the appropriate  
signal level automatically at any time.  
In the ALC mode, there is sensitivity from 0 dB to +18 dB under low  
illuminance.In the EEI mode, the electronic shutter varies the shutter  
speed automatically from 1/60 [U Ver.] or 1/50 [E Ver.] to 1/1920 [U  
Ver.] or 1/1600 [E Ver.] sec.The signal level is adjusted in the range  
of 3 ( dark) to 5 ( bright).  
When the iris is set to the manual mode, the sensitivity and the  
electronic shutter vary continuously without varying the iris setting.  
This function enables recording an object without varying its depth  
under variable illuminance.  
This is the calculated value, which is different from the actual  
Illuminance: lx  
value displayed on the screen.

When the trigger signal detecting object is input, an electric  
charge is stored in the CCD image device on the camera,  
and it is output syncronized with the next SYNC signal. At  
this time an WEN signal is also output to be used for the  
memory latch.On a monitor, the movement of the object looks  
like when taken under a strobe shot.

Two modes can be selected by the output timings of the cam-  
era corresponding to the trigger input signals.  
1. SYNC Non Reset Mode  
This is a system to output the camera timing regardless of  
the trigger input signal. When the camera is in the  
GENLOCK mode, timing is output synchronized with the  
input signal of the GENLOCK IN.
