    Recording Basic Procedures This section describes the basic operating procedures for shooting and recording. When starting to shoot actual images, inspect the unit beforehand to check that all systems are functioning normally. ¡See the “Inspections Before Shooting” (page 121) for a description of inspection procedures. Procedures from power supply preparations to inserting a cassette Insert a charged battery pack.
  • Page 448 Procedures from adjusting the white balance and black balance to stopping recording Turn on the power, insert a cassette, and then set the various switches as follows. AUDIO SELECT CH1/CH2: AUTO TCG: F-RUN or R-RUN OUTPUT: CAM/AUTO KNEE ON GAIN: Normally, set to 0 dB. When it is too dark, it is set to the appropriate gain.
  • Page 449 Recording Shooting images 1-1,1-2 Select the filter in accordance with the lighting conditions, and when the white balance has already been stored in the memory, set the WHITE BAL switch to “A” or “B”. When the white balance and black balance have not been stored in the memory and there is no time to adjust the white balance: Set the WHITE BAL switch to PRST and set the FILTER knob to “1”: this will achieve a 3200 K white balance.
  • Page 450: Successive Shooting

    Successive Shooting Successive shooting with an accuracy of within 0–o1 frame can be performed simply by press- ing the VTR START button of the unit or the VTR button of the lens while recording is paused. While recording is paused The unit automatically searches for the successive shooting point.
  • Page 451 Recording Successive Shooting in Other Cases If successive shooting is to be performed after the tape has been run, the cassette has been ejected, or when using a tape which has only been recorded part-way, follow the procedures outlined below. Performing successive shooting after the tape has been run, the cassette has been ejected, or when using a tape which has only been recorded part-way Press the PLAY button while watching the viewfinder screen and play back the tape.
