PMW-200 Three 1/2"
Exmor CMOS XDCAM HD422 Memory Handy
Camcorder
The PMW-200 is the sucessor to Sony's well respected PMW-EX1/R
camcorder which supports the 50 Mbps MPEG HD422 codec and MXF
recording. It is a good companion to the PMW-500 XDCAM HD422
shouldermount camera. With its three 1/2-inch Full HD Exmor CMOS
sensor (1920x1280), the PMW-200 is able to achieve high resolution
(1000 TVl), high sensitivity (F11@2000 lx), low noise (56 dB), and
wide dynamic range. The PMW-200 can be used for both SD and HD
applications. It can be set to record 50 Mbps MPEG HD422 as MXF
files on UDF formatted cards just like the PMW-500 memory camcorder
or the PDW-700/F800 optical disc based camcorders. Or you can set
the camcorder for FAT mode recording to shoot SxS cards which are
compabile with the XDCAM EX format made by the PMW-EX1/R or
PMW-320/350. For SD applications you can make DVCAM recordings as
either MXF files or XDCAM EX compatible files. |

Automatic adjustment of flange focal length for
PMW-200
The flange focal length can be automatically adjusted.When
automatic adjustment of flange focal length is activated, focusing
is performed both at the wide-angle and telephoto ends of the zoom
for flange focal length adjustment and the result is stored so that
the in-focus condition is maintained even if you change the zoom
position after focusing.
Notes
• If a subject of insufficient contrast is used, or if the
camcorder or subject moves during the adjustment, adjustment cannot
be made properly. Once the adjustment begins, do not touch the
camcorder body or lens until it ends.
• When “Setting” of the “EX Slow
Shutter” of the CAMERA SET menu is “On,” be sure
to set it to “Off” before starting the adjustment.
• Be careful that no light source, such as a lamp,the sun, or
a bright window, is in field of view during flange focal length
adjustment.
1 Set the power switch to ON.
2 Set the IRIS switch of the lens to AUTO.
3 Place a high-contrast subject, such as a flange focal
length adjustment chart, about 3 m (10
ft.) away from the camcorder, and
light it well enough to provide a sufficient video output
level.
Frame the subject so that it is located in
the center at the telephoto end of the zoom. Make sure that any
object located closer to the lens than the subject is out of frame
at the wideangle end.
4 Set the ZOOM switch to SERVO (Power Zoom mode).
5 Press the MENU button to set the camcorder to Menu mode,
and select the CAMERA SET menu, then “Auto FB
Adjust” from the menu.
6 Select “Execute.”
The adjustment begins.
During adjustment, the in-progress message is displayed.
When the adjustment finished, the completion message is
displayed.
If you press the CANCEL button during adjustment
Automatic adjustment of the flange focal length is aborted and the
condition before starting the adjustment is resumed.
If the adjustment fails, An error message is displayed.
Check the conditions of the subject and lighting then perform the
adjustment again. |
