Adjusting the Picture Tone in a Multi-Camera System

When configuring a multi-camera system, adjust all cameras
to prevent camera-to-camera variations in picture tone.
Before making the adjustments described below, supply the
same sync signal to all cameras.
For connection, see "Connection" on page 38.
Connecting the cameras to video equipment
with phase indication capability
When connecting to a special-effects generator, a
chormakey unit, or other video equipment with phase
indication capability, the basic adjustment procedure is as
follows.
1
Turn on the phase indication capability of the connected
video equipment.
2
Adjust the horizontal phase using the "H.PHASE"
function on the PAGE 3 menu.
For more details, see "Page 3 menu" in "Adjusting and
Setting with Menus" on page 32.
3
Adjust the SC (subcarrier) phase using the "SC
PHASE" function on the PAGE 3 menu.
First set to 0° or 180° for rough adjustment using the
"SC 0/180" function.
For more details, refer to the instruction manual of the connected
video equipment with phase indication capability.
Connecting the cameras to video equipment
without phase indication capability
Use one of the cameras as a reference camera and adjust the
other cameras to the reference camera one by one.
1
Adjust the horizontal phase using the "H.PHASE"
function on the PAGE 3 menu.
Using the "H.PHASE" function, adjust so that the
reference video signal and the output signal have the
same horizontal sync phase. Use the waveform monitor
or an oscilloscope to check the phase.
2
Adjust the SC phase using the "SC PHASE" function on
the PAGE 3 menu.
First set to 0° or 180° for rough adjustment using the
"SC 0/180" function. Use a vectorscope or the wiping
function of a special-effects generator so that images of
both the reference camera and the camera to be adjusted
appear next to each other on the screen.
