Menu Organization and Operation
MAINTENANCE menu
This menu includes contains items for making settings for audio, timecode, essence marks, and battery.
FILE menu
This menu is for saving the adjusted data in the camcorder memory or in a “Memory Stick”. The following files can be saved.
User file
In the user file, the setting items and setting data of the customized USER menu are saved. Once you save the user file in a “Memory Stick”, you can easily set the USER menu to your preference by loading the data from the
“Memory Stick”.
For details on the user file, see “Saving and Loading User
ALL file
In the ALL file, the setting data of all of the menus are saved. Once a camcorder is set according to your preferences and you save its ALL file in a “Memory
Stick”, you can easily set other camcorders to the settings of the camcorder that you already set by loading the data from the “Memory Stick”.
Items included in the ALL file are marked with an “A” in the “File” column on the menu list.
Scene file
In the scene file, the setting values of event items adjusted to shoot a particular scene are saved. You can save up to five scene files in the camcorder memory and up to 100 scene files in a “Memory Stick”. For example, first adjust the settings to shoot a particular scene at the rehearsal and then save them as a scene file. Then load this file before the actual shooting so that you can quickly recreate setup conditions that are the same as those in rehearsal.
Items included in the scene file are marked with an “Sc” in the “File” column on the menu list.
Lens file
In the lens file, the setting data used to compensate for the characteristics of lenses, such as flare, white shading, and auto iris gain, is saved. You can save up to 32 lens files in the camcorder memory and up to 100 lens files in a
“Memory Stick”.

The USER MENU CUSTOMIZE menu allows you to add and delete pages to and from the USER menu to suit your requirements.
Note
When the setting range in the “Settings” column is surrounded by parentheses ( ), the setup value is a relative value. The setting range shown on the menu screen may differ from what is shown in this manual.

Setting the Amount of
Compensation for Color Casts by
ND Filters
The internal ND filters are almost color neutral, but there is a slight color cast for each filter. This can cause the white balance to shift when you change the position of the
FILTER selector.
The ND COMP function compensates for this automatically by memorizing a color offset for each filter.
Note that these offset values are adjusted correctly when the unit is shipped from the factory. Normally you should not need to carry out the following procedure.
To set the amount of compensation for color casts
1
Shoot a gray scale or white test card and zoom up so that it fills the screen.
2
Set the FILTER selector to position 4, and adjust the lighting so that “OK” appears when the white balance is adjusted.
3
Display the ND COMP page of the ADVANCED menu, and then press the MENU knob.
For details on menu operations, see “Basic Menu
Adjustments and Settings from Menus

Set the FILTER selector to position 1, and adjust the iris and white balance, either automatically or by manual adjustments.
6
Check that “ND1:OK” appears when the adjustments finish.
7
Set the FILTER selector to position 2, and adjust the iris and white balance, either automatically or by manual adjustments.
8
Check that “ND2:OK” appears when the adjustments finish.
9
Repeat step
5
with the FILTER selector set to positions 3 and 4.
10
When “ND COMPLETE!” appears, and the displays for each ND filter have changed to “ND1:OK”,
“ND2:OK”, “ND3:OK”, and “ND4:OK”, set the
POWER to OFF.
Note
When you set the POWER switch to ON again and display the ND COMP page, ND OFFSET ADJUST will be OFF.
Although the ND OFFSET ADJUST item is OFF, the offset settings that you specified will be memorized and the compensation function will be working. Set the ND OFFSET ADJUST item to ON again if you want to specify new offset settings.

• There will be noise on the recorded image if you change the operating mode for the internal timecode generator using the F-RUN/SET/R-RUN switch on the side control panel while recording.
• The video and audio signal and timecode output via i.LINK may not be consecutive when recording starts.
Notes on 2-3 pulldown
• When the PRESET/REGEN/CLOCK switch on the side control panel is set to CLOCK, this unit operates in DF mode. The synchronization of the timecode and the pulleddown picture is disabled.
• When drop-frame timecode is input via the TC IN connector, this unit operates in DF mode and synchronization of the pulled-down picture and the timecode is disabled.
This setting will continue in effect until the timecode setting (F-RUN/R-RUN or DF/NDF) is changed.
