Precautions

On the video camera recorder

Take care not to expose the equipment to salty air. Do not drip water on the equipment.

• Do not open the marine pack while at sea or at the seaside. Preparations such as

installing and checking the equipment should be made in a place with low humidity

and no salty air.

• When a video camera recorder is used near the sea for a long time, we recommend

that it is checked periodically by a Sony dealer.

• If the equipment becomes wet, take it immediately to the nearest Sony dealer for

preventive maintenance.

On the video camera recorder power source

We recommend that you use battery packs with a large capacity. However, in some

cases battery packs NP-99/4500/F930/F950 cannot be attached to the video camera

recorder.

On the marine pack

• If you open and join the front and rear shells in a place with high temperature and

high humidity, moisture condensation may occur when you put the marine pack in

the water, causing the front glass to fog.

• The waterproof integrity of the marine pack is maintained by the O-ring, and the

groove and surface where it touches. Be especially careful not to damage or deform

that area. For details, see “Note on the O-ring” (page 18).

• Do not leave the marine pack under direct sunlight for a long period of time,

otherwise the temperature in the marine pack may rise and the equipment inside

may be damaged. If you cannot avoid leaving the marine pack under direct sunlight,

be sure to cover the marine pack with a towel or other protection.

• Do not throw the marine pack into the water. Lower it gently into the water.

• Whenever you pick up the marine pack, handle the grip. If the underwater video

light (not supplied) is attached to the marine pack, do not handle the underwater

video light’s arm.

On recording underwater

• Check that the equipment operates correctly and there is no water leak at a depth of

about one meter (3 feet) before you dive deeper.

• Be sure to follow the safety rules for diving, such as diving period and depth.

• Remove the bubbles from the outside of the front glass.

Sony does not accept liability for damage to the video camera recorder, battery, etc. in

the marine pack or for the loss of prerecorded material if water leak caused by

incorrect operation occurs.

ES

On maintenance

After recording in the sea, submerge the marine pack with the buckles tightly fastened

in fresh water for a while to remove the sea water. Then rinse it with fresh water and

wipe it with a soft cloth.

• Every time you use the marine pack and the video camera recorder underwater,

clean the video camera recorder and the inside of the marine pack with a dry soft

cloth. Do not use any type of solvent, such as alcohol or benzine for cleaning, as this

may damage the finish.

• If water comes between the rear shell and the rubber part, remove the rubber and

clean it with a dry soft cloth.

When you store the marine pack

• Coat the O-ring slightly with the supplied grease, and put it in the groove correctly.

Join the front and rear shells then put in a cool place without fastening the buckles.

• Prevent dust from collecting on the O-ring.

• Avoid storing the marine pack in a cold, very hot or humid place, or together with

naphthalene or camphor, as these conditions might damage the unit.

On transportation

• When transporting the marine pack, be sure to remove the video camera recorder

from the marine pack.

• When transporting the marine pack by air or by car, use a marine pack carrying case

(not supplied).

2 Preparing the video camera recorder

(1) Remove the lens cap, shoulder strap, filter, etc., from the video camera

recorder.

(2) Attach a charged battery pack and insert a video cassette.

(3) Attach the wide conversion lens (not supplied).

By attaching the wide conversion lens, the shooting coverage becomes wider, and the

subject size becomes smaller.

(4) Attach the Viewfinder adaptor.

If the viewfinder adaptor is loose when it is attached, bend the eyecup of the camcorder

and attach it again.

(5) When using adaptor A, attach it to the video camera recorder.

Check that the position of the mounting screw plate is correct (See pages 7). When

using adaptor B, skip this step.

The O-ring assures the waterproof function of the marine pack. To maintain waterproof

integrity, use it correctly. Incorrect handling may cause water to leak in.

Check that there are no scratches or cracks

Scratches or cracks on the O-ring may cause water to leak in. If the O-ring is damaged

in this way, replace it with a new one. Do not remove the O-ring from the groove with a

metal tool or a tool with a sharp point.

Remove any dust, sand or hair from the O-ring

Make sure there is no dust, sand or hair on the O-ring, in the groove, or on the surface

of the marine pack where the O-ring touches. If there is, clean them completely, or the

O-ring and the surface of the marine pack may be damaged and water may leak in.

Grease the O-ring

The grease protects the O-ring from wear.

Check that there are no cracks or dust on the O-ring, then grease it using your finger.

While greasing, double check that there are no cracks or dust.

Never use cloth or paper to apply grease because the fibers may cling.

Do not use any type of grease other then the supplied one, or it may damage the O-ring.

If you run out of silicone grease (2-115-921-01) you can purchase it from your nearest

Sony Service Center.

Do not twist the O-ring

Put the O-ring in the groove evenly. Never twist it.

Do not pinch the O-ring with the marine pack

When jointing the front and rear shells, take care not to pinch the O-ring between them.

If this happens, not only will the O-ring be damaged, but water may leak in.

Storage

Put the supplied spare O-rings in the original carton and store it in a cool place.

• Do not expose the O-ring to direct sunlight.

• Do not place a heavy object on the O-ring.

• Do not fold the O-ring.

Useful life of the O-ring

Depending upon the maintenance and the length of use, we recommend changing the

O-ring every one or two years.

The O-ring (3-952-928-01) can be replaced at your nearest Sony Service Center.

20-EN

Underwater recording

Recording underwater is different from recording on land because it is affected by the

clarity and depth of the water and the light conditions. The following are hints for good

recording underwater.

Colour characteristic underwater

Water absorbs light, especially red light, so that objects in deep water or in the distance

are seen as bluish. The colour of objects is affected by the clarity of the water.

To record the subject with nearly actual colour, use the colour filter.

Best time for recording

The best recording time is about from 10:00 a.m. to 2:00 p.m. When the sun is its

highest, optimum results can be obtained.

Subject size underwater

Since the refractive index underwater is higher than that in air, an object appears 1/4

more closer, and therefore larger. This phenomenon affects the lens on the video camera

recorder as well as the human eye. Using a wide-conversion lens (not supplied) is

recommended.

Camera work on slow and stable motion

When recording, keep your body stable.

An unstable shot will be magnified on the TV screen. Move the video camera recorder

as slowly as possible. As most of the object underwater move, you can record a good

programme without moving the video camera recorder.

Underwater video light

In deep water or under rocks where direct sunlight does not reach, recording with an

underwater video light is recommended.

To record at night, use a powerful underwater video light.
