Using a Video Light

You can use the Anton Bauer Ultralight 2 or equivalent for this comcorder. Use a video light powered by 12 V with maximum power consumption of 30 W.

If you connect the video light to the video light connector 9 on the camcorder (page 27) and set the LIGHT switch 3 to AUTO (page 16), you can turn the light on and off automatically as you start and stop the VCR operation.

The output of the video light connector on the camcorder is controlled to 12 V even when the

camcorder is supplied with 12 V or more power (through the DC IN connector or battery pack). The brightness or color temperature of the light will not change according to voltage increase.

Notes

Do not use a video light with power consumption of over 30 W.

The brightness or color temperature of the light will change when the supplied voltage is under 12 V.
