2. Technical Explanation

2-1 Design

2-1-1 Design Concept


(1) CLASSY DESIGN
A sense of high quality and superior performance are expressed in this top single-CCD model through the smart and elegant
contours that users have come to expect from Canon and that clearly identify this model as a member of the same lineup as the
MVX150i E

(2) SLIM & REFINED


Emphasis on lens barrel for highlighting its performance as an optical device.
Low-contrast, two-tone design matching the mold for expressing a sense of elegance.
MEGAPIXEL BADGE identifying its 2.0 megapixel performance.
One-point color used for microphone unit on the front.

(3) EASY OPERATION


An independent program dial has been added for enhanced ease of operation when shooting.
The design of the zoom unit is based on the MVX150i E to allow a unified operating interface for Canon's horizontal models and
identify it as a model of the series.

2-2 High Magnification Zoom Lens

2-2-1 Lens Concept


• The basic section uses the MVX1 E lens to provide Canon's proven high image quality, six high-grade iris apertures, optical shift
image stabilizer, and ND independent driving.

• Adjustable control of open aperture diameter when shooting still images allows high resolution.

• New ND filter (three pattern vapor deposition) for reducing drops in resolution and ghosting when the ND filter section is
inserted.

2-4-1 About PictBridge

1. Overview

1-1. Background to Establishment


With the popularization of digital cameras, computers, and inkjet printers, an environment is emerging where people can easily create
prints at home. Furthermore, to address the demands of users for convenient printing without using a computer, several companies
have been building systems that directly connect their printers and certain digital camera models to facilitate printing with straightfor-
ward operations. Canon has been doing this with its “Direct Print system”, while Epson has introduced “USB Direct-Print” and
“PhotoPC Direct” and Hewlett-Packard has released the direct photo printing function (only in the US).

The problem with these company-specific direct print systems is that they can only connect digital cameras the companies produce
themselves or those produced by certain allied manufacturers. This means users cannot necessarily connect their own digital cameras
with their own printers.

In recognition of this problem, six companies - Canon Inc., Fuji Photo Film Co., Ltd., Hewlett-Packard Japan, Olympus Optical Co.,
Ltd., Seiko Epson Corporation, and Sony Corporation - have been working together to build a direct print system between digital
cameras and printers that makes no manufacturer distinctions.

1-2. History
● July 2002: Four companies (Canon, Epson, HP, and Sony) begin work on standardizing a vender-independent direct print system.

1-4. The PictBridge Philosophy


● For users
· Quick what-you-see-is-what-you-get printing using the digital camera’s LCD monitor
· Easy-to-operate printing with intuitive controls
· Reliable interconnection between more digital cameras and more printers
● For venders
· Device manufacturers can readily implement PictBridge support
· Independent of physical interfaces or transport layers*
· Incorporates future extensibility and contributes to the ongoing digital-photo-culture evolution

* PictBridge defines only an application layer in the communication protocol. This independence allows device makers to em-
ploy the standard easily and provides the standard with extensibility for other interfaces besides USB.

GENERAL DESCRIPTION OF PRODUCT

2-2. Technical Features


PictBridge employs a communication protocol architecture that emphasizes flexibility and extensibility.
Specifically, this architecture provides a DPS layer, a conversion layer between the existing transport layer and application layer, that
performs translations with the PTP protocol. In effect, PictBridge standardizes the interface protocol between the DPS layer and the
application layer.

(1) USB Interface, PTP Communication Protocol


· Employing USB (interface), a standard computer interface, and PTP (communication protocol) gives PictBridge versatility and
a close affinity with existing systems
· Using the USB standard allows printers to power digital cameras (up to 500 mA)
⇒ Users can print without worrying about AC adapters or remaining battery life

GENERAL DESCRIPTION OF PRODUCT

(2) Employs a Client/Server Communication Model


· A virtual Print Client and Storage Server exist in the digital camera and a virtual Print Server and Storage Client reside in the
printer. With this communication format, clients make various requests to servers, and servers, in turn, respond to these requests

(3) Forward-thinking Transport-independent Interface


· To assure a diversity of connection methods, the interface does not depend on any transport protocol.
As a result, the standard is not limited to the present USB method and can be extended in the future to support network
environments.

Ex. Connections over a LAN


Ex. Wireless connections

satisfy all requirements stipulated in the logo certification guideline.
● The CIPA has designated a third-party agency that handles applications for logo certification.
● The general process to receive logo usage authorization consists of the following steps:
1) The vender purchases the Logo Certification Test Suite, approved by the CIPA, performs the prescribed tests at its own site,
and ensures that the product passes all the tests.
2) The vender submits the necessary applications to a third-party agency, accredited by the CIPA, and receives authorization.
3) The vender pays the following fees to the CIPA-accredited third-party agency.
· Logo licensing fee
· The CIPA administration fee
· Application fee to the third-party agency

4-2. Usage of Mark and Logotype


PictBridge-compliant products that obtain logo certification are permitted to display any of the following mark and logotype on the
product or its packaging.
The mark and logotype can be used independently or in combination. Note, however, there are detailed agreements* governing the
application of the logo; these agreements must be strictly observed when using the logo.

* Size, color, and other details

1) Independent use of mark 2) Independent use of logotype

3) Combined use of mark and logotype

2-4-3 Camcorder Compatibility with PictBridge


(1) The specifications are virtually identical to the current Canon proprietary standard (Camera Direct).
The user interface (UI) is different between Camera Direct and PictBridge.

(2) Localization work is minimized.


• The display of new errors will be supported using the display of existing warning messages.
* Paper errors, ink errors, printer errors, file errors

(3) The communication system for connecting printers supporting both PictBridge and Canon Camera Direct will follow the printer's
instruction.
• PictBridge will be the default standard when connecting with a BJ printer
• The Camera Direct standard, which provides a shorter printing time, will be used for connection to dye sublimation printers.
* However, PictBridge will be used for connection to dye sublimation printers with some camcorders due to hardware
limitations.

(4) New products starting from MVX3i will support PictBridge.

2. Power Supply Circuit

<Outline>
The power supply of this machine provides the following advantageous features:
• When the DC jack is disconnected from the battery with power turned ON, power goes OFF once.
• The internal battery is charged only when the MAIN switch is at the P OFF position.
• When the DC jack not connected with power source (not supplied with power) is inserted into the main unit, power is not turned
on even if the battery is mounted. “A changeover of main power to the battery is not made since an event of DC jack mechanism
detection takes precedence.”

TECHNICAL DESCRIPTION

• Backup Lithium Battery


LI3V power from the lithium battery is input to pin 3 of the IC101, and it is output from pin 12 as power to the CCM MI-COM.
Thus, the CCM MI-COM performs data backup and clock operation when main power supply is not connected.
When the voltage of the lithium battery decreases below 2.6 V (or when the lithium battery is not loaded), the IC101 outputs the “L”
signal form pin 2. Upon receipt of this signal at the time of power-on, the CCM MI-COM sends it to the FR MI-COM, which then
issue a lithium battery low-level warning indication.

• Main Power Supply


Main power (DC-JACK/BATTERY) is supplied to pin 13 of IC101. Through the internal regulator in IC101, the main power thus
supplied is converted to 3V power, which is output as E3V from pin 14 of IC102. Furthermore, through the internal switch, the
main power is converted to LI3V, which is output from pin 12 of IC102 as a power voltage for driving the CCM MI-COM.
Supplied with the main power, pin 4 of IC101 and pin 4 of IC102 becomes “High” and the CCM MI-COM detects that the main
power supply is loaded. Then, the CCM MI-COM performs initialization to set up a standby state. In this state, the CCM MI-COM
carries out detection of start-related switch signals. Upon detection of these switch signals, the CCM MI-COM delivers the CAM
ON (H) and VTR ON (H) signals from its pins L2 and L3. When the CAM ON (H) and VTR ON (H) signals are output, each circuit
power is made active.
When each circuit power is made active, 3V power is input to pins 5/7 of IC101. 3V power is output as the power for the CCM MI-
COM from pin 12 of IC102 to save its power consumption.

TECHNICAL DESCRIPTION

4-2-5 MPEG-4 Motion Picture File

● ASF File
Video and audio data is integrally put into a file according to a standard set forth by MicroSoft.
ISO MP4 can be enumerated as a standard for putting into a file, but ASF is adopted by this machine.
Based on this standard, MPEG-4 compressed video data and G.726 compressed audio data are jointly put into ASF file.
Therefore, even a file with an extender of ASF cannot be played back by this machine if the compression format of data contained
in it is different. MediaPlayer of Windows plays back data upon specifying a decoder based on information contained in the header
of ASF file.

● MPEG-4 Video Compression Method


While Motion-JPEG uses only “frame inside compression”, MPEG uses “inter-frame compression” also.

■ Motion-JPEG
Series of frame inside compressed data as JPEG image

Time

Fig. 11

QVGA (320 × 240) corresponds to 1.5 Mbits/sec to 2 Mbits/sec.

■ MPEG-4
• I frame (Intra Picture) : Frame inside compression only the same as Motion-JPEG.
• P frame (Predictive Picture) : Reducing the data quantity by a prediction from preceding frames.

I P P P P I P P P I P P P

Time

Cycle of 1 frame

Fig. 12

• The data is 352 Kbits/sec for CIF (352 × 288), and 96 Kbits/sec for QCIF (176 × 144).
• In case of 6Mbit data, the recording time is about 30 seconds for M-JPEG (QVGA), and about 2 minutes for MPEG4 (CIF).

● G.726 Audio Compression Method


This is a kind of ADPCM compression.
8KHz sampled 4bit monaural data is turned into 32kbits/sec.

• The VIC, MI-COM, DIF INTERFACE and (USB INTERFACE) circuits are integrated on a single semiconductor chip.
• A/B DATA : Input in camera mode. B DATA is output and A DATA is input at playback. (DIGIC DV digital effect circuit is
used at playback.)
The video data and signals input to VIC3 are subjected to digital VCR format signal processing. Audio data,
subcode data and ITI data are also created at VIC3, and these signals are output to VRP2 as 41.85 Mbps data of
DV format.
• DIF : After conversion to digital data conforming to IEEE1394 standard, the data is output at DV terminal. At digital
input, the data enters VIC3 signal processing circuit via the opposite route.

< VRP2 >IC2000


Recording data of 41.85 Mbps output from VIC3 is amplified at VRP2, and is recorded on magnetic tape while undergoing head
switching of CH-1, CH-2 with a switching pulse. At playback, the head output signal is amplified and sent to VIC3.

< VIF2 >IC2100


Y and C signals sent from VIC3 are output as Y, C signals for S terminal and composite video.
At line input, input signals undergo level adjustment, sync signal separation and are output to VIC3.

5-2 Major Functions of Each Microcomputer


(1) FR MI-COM (IC2301 : VIC3)
The FR MI-COM, as the nucleus of the system, carries out control of mode transition plus mechanism control through communi-
cation with CCM MI-COM. It also detects of various sensors and switches (DMCIII). Following are the major functions.
• VIC (Video) VIF2 (Video Interface) control / AIF3 (Audio Interface) controls / DIF (Digital Interface) controls
• DMC III mechanism control
• OSD (On Screen Display) bitmap control
• IS (Image Stabilizer) control

(2) CCM MI-COM (IC103)


CCM MI-COM integrates CARD, CAMERA and MODE MI-COM. Its main functions are shown below.
• Key input
• LCD / EVF control
• Remote control input
• Power ON/OFF control
• Built-in charge circuit control
• MIC (Memory In Cassette) control
• USB interface control

TECHNICAL DESCRIPTION

5-3 Servo Control


Servo control is carried out by the VIC3 (VIC and FR MI-COM). The FR MI-COM is used for servo control of motor ON/OFF and
rotational direction, and the VIC is used to output rotational speed and phase control signals. More specifically in terms of signal
flow, the VIC detects the FG/PG and PB-RF signals from the motor, and sends the detected signal information to the FR MI-COM.
Then, the FR MI-COM generates an error signal to be output to the VIC. Thereafter, the VIC outputs an error signal (PWM), which
is driven on the MAIN P.C.B. for sending a control voltage to the motor driver IC.

6. Trouble Shooting
To detect the failure part for repair, if any, use the following hints and check points.

6-1 Power Supply


<Hints>
When the power source is attached, the unit enters the standby mode in the following sequences.

Main power is connected. → UNREG is supplied to the MAIN P.C.B. → CCM MI-COM starts up. → CCM MI-COM outputs VCR ON
“H” signal. → PWM driver starts up and turns on each power supply. → Establishes communication with the FR MI-COM. → FR MI-
COM initializes recorder mechanical chassis. → After initialized, the CCM MI-COM is brought into the standby status with the VCR
ON changed to VCR Low.

After that, the power supply is turned ON by the following procedures.

Power supply mode switch operation → After CCM MI-COM is accepted, VCR ON “H” is output. → The PWM driver is started to turn
on various power supplies. → The FR MI-COM is started to control the system.

<Check Points>
1) Key Inputs
Check the key inputs at Power Switch in the SERVICE mode.
2) Check of microcomputer-to-microcomputer communication
If the microcomputer-to-microcomputer communication line is normal, the version number of each microcomputer can be indi-
cated in the service mode. Otherwise, the communication line or microcomputer may be faulty.
3) Error in Mechanism (p. 9)
If any error is occurred by mechanism trouble at initializing, the error can be detected.
At this state, the power can be turned on, but the unit enters “ERROR STOP” state. In this case, check the error data in the
SERVICE mode.
4) VCR ON “H”, CAM ON “H” (control signal from CCM MI-COM) Outputs
5) Fuses on the POWER SUPPLY P.C.B.
Check the continuity of the fuses FU3201, 3202, 3203, 3204, 3205, 3206, 3207 and 1801 on the MAIN P.C.B. In case of NG,
replace the fuse and check the power consumption.
6) Replace the MAIN P.C.B. with a service part and check the operation.

6-2 Camera Picture Faulty


<Hints>
A flow of camera picture (EE) is as below.
CCD → MAIN P.C.B. (DIGIC DV → VIC3→VIF2) → S JACK P.C.B. / LJ-2 P.C.B.

<Check Points>
1) Check of lens reset (p. 11)
If the display freezes showing the opening image, check if the lens has been reset by means of the service mode. In case of NG,
check the lens.
2) Check of blue back output
If the blue back is confirmed, the signal line subsequent to VIC3 is considered to be OK.
3) Check of DIGIC DV generation signal (white 100% or color bar) (p. 10)
The white 100% or color bar signals are generated by the DIGIC DV on the MAIN P.C.B. In the service mode, if the output of the
white 100% or color bar signal is attained, the signal line subsequent to DIGIC DV is considered to be OK.
4) Check of CCD output
The CCD output is sampled by IC1000 (CDS/AD). Check the signal.
5) Check by command particular to camera (p. 10)
Check the operation of White balance, AGC, IRIS, etc. in the service mode.

INFORMATION FOR REPAIR · SERVICE HINTS

6-3 Faulty of Playback Picture


<Hints>
In the DV, degradation of picture quality normally appears on the screen as block noise. This is because, if an error occurs exceeding the
ability of the error correction circuit, the block by block information of pictures is not played back properly and thus complemented by
the previous picture information. Normally, such block noise appears on the screen when the error rate has considerably been degraded
due to the degraded tape or the lowered head output, etc. Be sure to check the playback picture quality by the error rate.

<Check Points>
1) Deterioration of Tape Quality
Check if flaws, kinks, etc. are found on a magnetic face of tape or not, and compare it with the error rate of other unit.
2) Error Rate (P. 8)
In the service mode, check an error rate of self-recording/LP playback. The specified allowable error rate is 2 × 10-5.
In case of NG, take the following procedure.

(1) Observe a playback envelope. If it is abnormal, carry out tape-path adjustment.


(2) Run a cleaning tape.
Use the cleaning tape of hard type (DY9-1384-000).

[Playback time]
After replacement of the drum unit → 25 seconds
For cleaning → 25 seconds per time, Up to three times
* Do not play the cleaning tape back for 25 seconds or more continuously.
* The total playback time of a cleaning tape is five minutes at the maximum.
* When using hard-type cleaning tape, select the cleaning mode on the product main unit.
(Refer to 4-3 - Cleaning Mode, p.9.)

(3) Check the error rate again.


If the error rate is out of the specified range, clean the tape drive parts (posts, drum) using cleaning paper moistened with
alcohol.
* Take care not to damage the head.
* Do not touch the head with bare hand.
(4) Check the error rate again.
If the error rate is out of the specified range, replace the tape with a new one and check the error rate again. At this step, use a
tape (must be Panasonic LP tape) which has been purchased at a different time. The error rate may become worse due to
inconsistent quality or aging of the tape.
(5) Repeat playing back the cleaning tape until error rate is improved.
* However, the total playback time of cleaning tape should not exceed 5 minutes.

6-4 Startup Window Setting


In the startup screen [User Setting 1, 2], a default image has been contained at the factory prior to shipment. When the user writes
an original image over it in the User Setting, it becomes a default image after replacement of the MAIN P.C.B. Note that the image
thus written by the user is recognized as a non-original image.

Procedure)
How to save an original image to a PC and write it to the main unit:
(1) In the MyCamera window on the Zoom Browser EX, save original image data to a PC.
(2) Replace the MAIN P.C.B.
(3) In the MyCamera window, set the original image data saved at step (1) to the camera.

For details, refer to the DIGITAL VIDEO SOFTWARE INSTRUCTION MANUAL - “Customizing Your Camcorder with
the MyCamera Settings”.

Note)
Only where the USB I/F is available for connection between the PC and main unit, it is allowed to save/write original image data
using the Zoom Browser EX.

2-2 CCD Section (1) - CCD Image Adjustment -


This camcorder is provided with a primary-color-filter CCD having 2,000,000 pixels. Since the number of CCD pixels is in-
creased, two signal processing circuits are provided for the left-side and right-side imaging areas. For eliminating a level difference
between signals on these two signal processing circuits, it is required to perform initial adjustment using a dedicated tool. The
characteristics of the CCD (sensitivity, black/white dot) largely depend on its temperature, and there are subtle differences in the
CCD characteristics due to variations in production. Therefore, carry out CCD image adjustment twice in total, i.e., at low tempera-
ture (immediately after power-on) and at high temperature (in a lapse of certain time after power-on).

2-2-1 Internal Camera Temperature Check (1)

Preparation)
(1) Provide setting C for adjustment. (The LED light source should be removed until item 2-2-3.)
(2) Before proceeding to adjustment, apply power to the CCD image adjusting tool for at least 15 minutes (in order to stabilize the light
source).

Procedure)
(1) Referring to the table shown below, check the internal temperature sensor in the camera.
(Be sure to perform this step immediately after power-on.)
(2) Using the internal camera temperature data, calculate a value of the current internal temperature, and record the calculated value.
Temperature immediately after power-on T1 = ____________

Note)
(1) In cases where the procedure has been interrupted, the internal camera temperature data recorded will be usable as reference data at
the time of restart.

2-2-5 Internal Camera Temperature Check (2)

Procedure)
(1) According to the table shown below, check the internal temperature sensor in the camera.
(Perform this step within about five minutes after power-on.)
(2) Using the internal camera temperature data, calculate a value of the current internal temperature, and record the calculated value.
Temperature about five minutes after power-on T2 = ____________
(3) Calculate an increase in the internal camera temperature [°C], and check that it is less than 7[°C].

Note)
(1) In this camcorder, it is possible to make correction for black dots, which is not available in the conventional models. (Maximum
allowable number of black dots : 5 points)
(2) Up to 30 pixel missing points including five black dots can be corrected. At the time of adjustment, up to 64 pixel missing points
are detectable. CCD Pixel Missing Compensation is made for up to 30 pixel missing points in increasing order of pixel missing
level. If more than 64 pixel missing points are detected in adjustment, the result of adjustment is indicated as NG and the correction
is not performed.
(3) The number of white dots increase with the temperature of the CCD, causing a change in detectable level. If the adjustment is
performed after a lapse of time longer than the specified period of power-on, the temperature of the CCD becomes higher than a
preset temperature level to result in an increase in the number of white dots detected. In this situation, CCD Pixel Missing
Compensation cannot be made properly.
(4) In addition to the CCD Pixel Missing Compensation function mentioned above, this product is provided with a function for
automatically correcting pixel missing points each time power is turned on and a function for automatically correcting pixel missing
points at the time of shooting at a dark object (interlinked with AGC level adjustment).
