(3) Auto Cruising Zoom Operation
In auto cruising zoom operation, the zoom moves to the tele end or the wide end at a constant speed. This function is effective when a constant slow zoom speed is required across the zooming range.
Either the VTR switch or the return switch can be used as an auto cruizing zoom switch. Set switch 1 or 2 in the area of “Function & Mode Select Switches” (see page 13) to ON. When switch 1 is set to ON, the VTR switch acts as an auto cuizing zoom switch, while when switch 2 is set to ON, the return switch acts as that switch. In the following description, the VTR switch or the return switch is called auto cuizing zoom switch.
Operation
a.Set the zoom servo/manual select knob to “SERVO.”
b.Press the zoom seesaw control lever and adjust the zoom speed.
c.While pressing the zoom seesaw control lever, press the auto crusing zoom switch.
–The auto cruising zoom function will work.
d.Release your hand from the zoom seesaw control lever.
–The zoom will move to the tele end or the wide end at a constant speed that is determined when the auto cruising zoom switch is pressed.
Releasing
There are three ways to release the auto cruising zoom operation mode.
1.Press the zoom seesaw control lever on the side of the direction of the zoom movement.
–When the amount of displacement of the zoom seesaw control lever exceeds that determined when the auto cruising zoom operation is set, the auto cruising zoom operation mode will be released.
After released, the zoom will move continuously toward the same direction as moved before releasing. (In this way, the auto cruising zoom operation mode can be released maintaining the smooth zoom movement.)
2.Press the zoom seesaw control lever on the reverse side of the direction of the zoom movement.
–The auto cruising zoom operation mode will be released immediately, and the zoom will move toward the reverse direction.
3.Press the auto cruising zoom switch.
–The auto cruising zoom operation mode will be released immediately, and the zoom will stop.
(4) Manual Operation
a.Set the zoom servo/manual select knob to “MANUAL.”
b.Rotate the zoom ring directly or using the zoom lever.
Clockwise rotation of the zoom ring, viewed from the camera side, moves the zoom to the wide side, and counterclockwise rotation to the tele side.
(When rotating the zoom ring directry, it is recommended to remove the zoom lever for smooth operation.)
