a)When an HKDW-703 is not installed, even though you can assign this function to the ASSIGN 1 switch on the ASS <1> SEL window, the ASSIGN 1 switch does not work.

b)Even when MARKER is set to OFF on the MARKER page of the USER menu, the ASSIGN 1 switch allows you to display or not to display all markers.

c)EZ FOCUS

When EZ FOCUS is set to ON, the iris stays open and the video level is automatically adjusted to the proper level by the

4 electronic shutter when an excessive amount of light passes through the lens. The depth of field is shallow because the iris stays open, and it is easy to check whether the object is in clear focus.

Pressing the switch again sets the EZ FOCUS function to OFF. This function automatically returns to OFF about 10 seconds after being set to ON.

d)Even if RETURN VIDEO is set to OFF on the GENLOCK page of the MAINTENANCE menu, you can use this switch to display the image of the return video signal on the viewfinder.
