Location of Controls and Functions

Vertical Shift switch (V-Shift)

Sometimes when shooting TV screens or monitors
with the same display frequency as the camera, a
horizontal black bar is seen in the viewfinder because
the camera is blanking while the TV is not.
The V-Shift switch shifts the camera blanking. It is
spring-loaded with a central rest position. Holding the
switch in the + or - position moves the bar up or down
so that it is no longer visible in the viewfinder. This
function is not active when the camera is genlocked
or on-air.

VTR Start button

In the triax mode this button switches the intercom
microphone of the headset to the production intercom
channel. This button operates in parallel with the VTR
button on the lens.

Std File button

The standard file button is a momentary button which,
when pressed for two seconds, recalls the standard
scene file video values. These values do not take
effect immediately if the camera is on air; they take
effect when the camera goes off air.
Refer to the Appendix for the default values of the
factory defined standard scene file. Refer to Section
6 to find out how to define and assign a standard
customer scene file.

If the optional Smart-Touch™ feature is installed and
switched on, pressing the Std button for two seconds
displays a list of files in the viewfinder menu. Files are
listed under the Lighting, Creative, and Matching
categories. The standard settings file is also available.
Use the Rotary control and Select switch at the
camera front to recall a file.
