Before Using the VB-C10/VB-C10R

Using the Wide-angle Converter (VB-C10)

The optional Wide-angle Converter WL-37 can be used to provide wide-angle shots (approx.
0.74× the normal focal distance).
Mount the wide-angle converter correctly so that it is level and fitted securely onto the camera.
When mounted correctly, the wide-angle converter should turn roughly 3 times before stopping.

a WARNING:
The Wide-angle Converter WL-37 is designed specifically for the VB-C10 and cannot
be used on the VB-C10R. If the converter is used on the VB-C10R, the mount will gradually
loosen and the converter will fall off the camera.
Note
The camera may not operate correctly if a wide-angle converter other than the
WL-37 is used.
The permissible range of camera installation angles with the wide-angle converter
mounted on the camera is ±15° from the horizontal.
When the Wide-angle Converter has been set for use in “Camera Settings” (
P.3-11), the pan and tilt values change for the three functions listed below. If the
Wide-angle Converter is to be used, pan and tilt values must be determined after
the use of the Wide-angle Converter has been set in “Camera Settings”.
• Home position setting ( P.3-12)
• View restrictions ( P.3-12)
• Preset settings ( P.3-15)
