11 Adjusting the lens flange back Adjust the flange back (distance from the surface where the lens is mounted to the surface where the images are formed) if the subject fails to be precisely focused at both the telephoto and wide-angle settings when zoom operations are to be performed. Once adjusted, the flange back does not need to be adjusted again unless the lens is replaced. Adjustment method 1Mount the lens on the camera. Do not forget to connect the lens cable at this time. 2Set the lens iris to manual, and open the iris. 3Set the lighting in such a way that the appropriate video output level is obtained at a distance of about 10 ft (3 meters) from the flange back adjustment chart. If the video level is too high, use a filter or shutter. 4Loosen the screw that secures the F.f (flange focus) ring. Depending on the lens concerned, this ring may be marked as the “F.b” (flange back) ring. 5Set the zoom ring to the telephoto position either by manual or electrical means. 6Shoot the flange back adjustment chart, and turn the distance ring to adjust the focus. 7Set the zoom ring to the wide-angle position, and turn the F.f ring to adjust the focus. Take care not to move the distance ring. 8Repeat steps 5 to 7 until the chart is focused properly at both the telephoto and wide-angle positions. 9Tighten up the screw that secures the F.f ring. For details on the adjustment method and positions of the lens parts, refer also to the instructions that accompany the lens. About 10 ft (3 m)

15 Mounting the camera on a tripod 1Mount the tripod attachment on the tripod. Consider the center of gravity of the camera and tripod together when selecting the holes for attaching the camera. Check that the diameter of the selected holes match the diameter of the screws on the tripod platform. 2Mount the camera on the tripod attachment. Slide the camera toward the front along the groove until a click is heard. Use the tripod attachment, available as an optional accessory, to mount the camera on a tripod.

16 Component system configuration An example of the standard system consisting of the Multi-Format Camera (AK-HC931P) and peripheral components is described below and shown on the following page. The MSU (AK-MSU930P) is not required unless a multiple number of cameras are to be controlled. The basic system configuration includes the lens, Multi-Format Camera, 2zviewfinder, camera control unit (CCU) and remote operation panel (ROP).

17 Outline of peripheral components 1Camera control unit (CCU: AK-HCU931P) This is the Multi-Format Camera’s camera control unit. It is connected to the Multi-Format Camera using an optical fiber cable (optional accessory). As a standard feature, it supports SD video input and output, and it can also support HD video input and output by connecting the HD output unit (AK-HHD931P). 2Remote operation panel (ROP: AK-HRP931P) The ROP is connected to the CCU using the ROP cable (optional accessory), and enables the camera, CCU and lens to be operated by remote control. 3Master setup unit (MSU:AK-MSU930P) When a multiple number of cameras and CCUs are used, the MSU can operate up to 15 units either separately or simultaneously by remote control. It can be operated together with the ROP. 42zviewfinder (2zVF: AJ-HVF27P) This is the viewfinder for the Multi-Format Camera. 5Build-up unit (AK-HBU931P) This is an adapter used to mount a larger lens (optional accessory) on the Multi-Format Camera. Thereby, it affords the same level of operability as that provided by a larger camera. 6LCD viewfinder (LCD VF: AK-HVF931P) This is the LCD viewfinder for the Multi-Format Camera. It can be used at the same time as the 2zviewfinder. It can still be operated when the system is built up. Component connections in an SD system 1Component connections Refer to pages 18 to 20 for the component connections. After all the components have been connected (the monitor system may be connected afterward), set the CCU’s main power switch to the ON position. Then turn on the camera’s power switch.
