General and Features The model AJ-D400 integrates a color video camera which employs three frame interline transfer (FIT) CCDs with 410,000 device on-chip lenses with a DVCPRO format VTR which is equipped with the latest compression technology.
Features High-performance viewfinder ÁThe high-resolution CRT projects a detailed picture which facilitates focus operations. ÁThe viewfinder employs a low flare CRT which makes the screen easy to see. ÁA center marker which indicates the center of the screen and a safety zone marker which indicates the effective screen region can be displayed by menu operations. ÁA large aperture allows the screen to be easily seen even when the operator’s eye is removed from the eyepiece.
Features Recording by an external VTR When an external VTR is connected using the 26-pin output adaptor (option, AJ-YA900P or AJ-YA700P), recording can be performed by the external VTR instead of the internal VTR. Remote control Connecting the Extension Control Unit (option, AQ-EC1) allows a portion of the camera section functions to be operated by remote control.
Features Features of the VTR section Digital system The VTR section features a component digital recording system that employs the latest compression technology and non-compressed PCM recording for audio. This system provides superior S/N, frequency band and waveform characteristics as well as reproduction of detailed areas, etc., and realizes even higher picture and sound quality.

ÁSee the “Inspections Before Shooting” (page 120) for a description of inspection procedures. Procedures from power supply preparations to inserting a cassette 3 2 1 1 2 3 4 Insert a charged battery pack.
Recording Procedures from adjusting the white balance and black balance to stopping recording Turn on the power, insert a cassette, and then set the various switches as follows. AUDIO SELECT CH1/CH2: AUTO TCG: F-RUN or R-RUN OUTPUT: CAM/AUTO KNEE ON GAIN: Normally, set to 0 dB. When it is too dark, it is set to the appropriate gain.
Recording Shooting images 3 2 1-1 1-2 2 3 4 5 4,5 1-2 1-1,1-2 Select the filter in accordance with the lighting conditions, and when the white balance has already been stored in the memory, set the WHITE BAL switch to “A” or “B”. When the white balance and black balance have not been stored in the memory and there is no time to adjust the white balance: Set the WHITE BAL switch to PRST and set the FILTER knob to “1”: this will achieve a 3200 K white balance.
Recording Successive Shooting Successive shooting with an accuracy of within 0–o1 frame can be performed simply by pressing the VTR START button of the unit or the VTR button of the lens while recording is paused. While recording is paused The unit automatically searches for the successive shooting point. However, the time until recording starts differs according to the setting of the VTR SAVE/STBY switch.
Recording Successive Shooting in Other Cases If successive shooting is to be performed after the tape has been run, the cassette has been ejected, or when using a tape which has only been recorded part-way, follow the procedures outlined below. 1,2 3 4 Performing successive shooting after the tape has been run, the cassette has been ejected, or when using a tape which has only been recorded part-way 1 2 3 4 Press the PLAY button while watching the viewfinder screen and play back the tape.
Playback—Checking Recorded Contents Pressing the PLAY button allows black-and-white playback images to be viewed on the viewfinder. Playback images can also be viewed in two other ways. ÁRec review: If the RET VIDEO switch is set to the INT side, black-and-white images of the last 2 seconds of the recorded contents can be seen on the viewfinder. ÁColor playback: Connecting a color monitor to the unit’s VIDEO OUT connector allows color playback images to be viewed on the monitor.
Connection With an External VTR The unit is equipped with an interface which enables recording to be performed by an external VTR. ÁMounting the AJ-YA900P or AJ-YA700P 26-pin output adaptor (option) and connecting the 26pin cable (option) to the unit allows recording to be performed by the VTR section (internal VTR) of the unit and an external VTR. The component video signal is output from the 26-pin interface.
Recording Simultaneously with the Internal VTR and an External VTR Connections Mount the AJ-YA900P or AJ-YA700P 26-pin output adaptor (option) to the unit, connect the external VTR with the 26-pin cable, and set the audio input level selector switch of the external VTR to “p60 dB”. SW3101 and SW3102 on the CAM ENC Printed Circuit Board of the unit must be set to the 26P side. (See page 90.) Audio input level selector switch: p60 dB Portable VTR (Set the audio input level selector switch to p60 dB.
Recording Simultaneously with the Internal VTR and an External VTR Functions of the Unit’s VTR SAVE/STBY Switch Tape running mode Pressing the unit’s STOP, REW or FF buttons sets the internal VTR to stop, rewind or fast forward modes, respectively. However, the external VTR is set to recording paused status in all cases. Viewing playback images on the viewfinder Pressing the unit’s PLAY button allows black-and-white playback images from the internal VTR tape to be viewed on the viewfinder.
Recording With an External VTR Instead of the Internal VTR Using the 26-pin Output Adaptor Connections The method of connecting the external VTR is the same as that described in “Recording Simultaneously with the Internal VTR and an External VTR”. ÁSee “Connections” on page 87. Mounting the 26-pin output adaptor ÁConsult your local dealer when mounting the adaptor. 1 Set the unit’s internal switches. 1 2 Remove the side panel on the display window side. 3 Set SW101 and SW102 to the 26P side.
Recording With an External VTR Instead of the Internal VTR Controlling the external VTR with the unit’s switches Setting the 26P CONTROL function as indicated below at the FUNCTION 3/5 page of the setting menu prevents the internal VTR from being operated and enables only the external VTR to be controlled by the VTR START button of the unit or the VTR button of the lens. Á26P CONTROL: ON ÁSee “Selecting Functions” (page 63) for a description of FUNCTION 3/5 page operations.
RET Button The images recorded on the VTR or return video signal which has been input to the Time code input/output/Video input adaptor AJ-YA710 (option) can be seen on the viewfinder screen when the RET (return video) button is pressed or while it is kept pressed in. What is displayed on the viewfinder screen changes as indicated in the table below according to the RET VIDEO switch setting and VTR mode.
Replacing the Backup Battery The unit is shipped from the factory with a backup battery already mounted. When the battery runs out, the TCG time code value indicates 00:00:00:00. At this time, the time code value cannot be backed up. In addition, the “BACK UP BATT EMPTY” display appears in the viewfinder for 3 seconds when the POWER switch is set to ON to indicate that the battery must be replaced. Consult your dealer when replacing the battery.

Emergency eject If the cassette cannot be ejected by pressing the EJECT button, use a screwdriver or similar tool to press and turn the EMERGENCY screw. This enables the cassette to be removed. 1 2 3 4 5 Set the power to OFF. Remove the rubber cap where shown in the figure. Insert a Phillips head screwdriver into the cross-shaped part of the EMERGENCY screw (red). While pushing in with the screwdriver, turn the EMERGENCY screw counterclockwise until the tape is ejected.
Maintenance Condensation If the unit is moved from a cold location to a warm location or used in areas with high humidity, the moisture in the air may adhere as water droplets on the head drum. This is called condensation, and if the tape is run under these conditions, it will easily stick to the drum. Therefore, the following points should be observed. ÁIf the unit is moved under conditions where condensation may occur, eject the tape.
Inspections Before Shooting Perform the following inspections before shooting to check that all systems are operating properly. Checking the image with a color monitor is recommended. Inspection Preparations 3 4 2 2 1 2 3 4 1 Insert a charged battery pack. Set the POWER switch to ON and check that the HUMID display does not appear and that five or more bars of the remaining battery level display are lighted. ÁIf the HUMID display appears, wait until the display goes off.
Inspections Before Shooting Inspecting the Viewfinder 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 Adjust the position of the viewfinder.
