Precautions for the Battery Opera- tion

Do not detach the battery pack while recording is taking

 

place.

Do not connect or disconnect the DC cable while operat-

 

ing with a battery pack.

 

The following symptoms may occur if the DC cable is con-

 

nected or disconnected while operating with a battery

 

pack.

 

• The power is cut off for a moment when the DC cable is

 

disconnected.

 

• Noise to the video and audio signals occurs. Audio sig-

 

nal are muted.

When operation is continued with DC input after the bat-

 

tery pack capacity has been used up, set the POWER

 

switch to OFF after the DC power is applied. Then switch

 

ON again.

If the GY-HD250/GY-HD251 is left with the battery pack

 

attached, a small amount of power is consumed even if

 

the POWER switch on the GY-HD250/GY-HD251 is set to

Operating Time with Battery Pack

Battery operating time may differ depending on the age of the battery pack, charging conditions and the operating environment, etc. Use the values in the table on the above for approximate reference times.

Operating time is reduced in areas with a cold environ- ment.

Operating time is reduced when the power zoom lens and LCD are used frequently.

MEMO

After the remaining battery power warnings appear, the GY-HD250/GY-HD251 automatically stops operation if the battery power operation is continued.

Recharging

Recharge the battery pack after completely discharging it. Repeated recharging with residual charge remaining could result in reduced battery capacity.

If the battery capacity is reduced by repeating incomplete recharging, or recharging without discharging, once dis- charge the battery pack completely, then recharge it to restore the battery capacity.

If the battery pack is recharged with its internal tempera- ture raised immediately after use, recharging may not be performed completely.

Perform charging in an environment where the tempera- ture is between 10°C (50°F) and 35°C (95°F). 20°C (68°F) to 25°C (77°F) is the ideal temperature range for charging. If the environment is too cold, charging may not complete.

GY-HD250/GY-HD251 enters the record-standby mode automatically. “STBY” is displayed in the VTR operation mode indication area of the LCD monitor and/or in the viewfinder. In this condition, press the REC/VTR trigger button to start recording.

*Playback is also possible in the Camera mode. Playback operation becomes possible when the STOP button is pressed to set the VTR operation mode indica-

tor to indicate “STOP”.

VTR mode

The GY-HD250/GY-HD251 enters the VTR mode. The camera image will not be displayed in the viewfinder or on the LCD monitor. When a videocassette is loaded, the GY- HD250/GY-HD251 enters the stop mode.

“STOP” is displayed in the VTR operation mode indication area of the LCD monitor and/or in the viewfinder. HDV/DV input is possible through the IEEE1394 connector.
