Autofocus:
When switching on the unit the
autofocus is automatically switched
on too. The correct focus is
continuously adjusted at a very high
speed.
When the autofocus is switched on
the red light on the autofocus on/off
switch (18) is on.
Please note that objects with a very
low contrast (like a blank sheet of
paper) are difficult to focus. If the
autofocus does not work just move
the object slightly.
o
o
For special applications the autofocus can also
be switched off using the on/off switch (18).
Manual focusing:
1. Place an object at the level you whish to
focus - The autofocus is focusing the object.
2. Switch off the autofocus with the on/off
switch (18) - The focus remains unchanged
Connect the power cord to the light box
connector (15) on the back side of the
VZ-5b.
The light switch (6) of the VZ-5b can
now be used to switch between the light
of the VZ-5b and the light of the lightbox.

also be caused by the room light.
to infinity
1. Loosen the knurled wheel (8) and pull the arm upwards
(Do not pull up on the light unit or camera!)
3. Connect the power adaptor to the DC-input (14) and plug it in
4. Connect a TV-monitor, a video projector or a video recorder to
the video output (12) or the Y/C-output (13)
5. Switch on the camera with the power switch (5)
White balance:
Please note that the white balance adjustment may not be correct, when switching on the unit.
In this case just move any object in the picture. Then it will work correctly.
2. Turn the video camera head (1) and point it at the working surface
The picture quality is much better if you use the Y/C
(S-VHS) output (13) rather then the composite video output
(12). Especially with typed material in black and white.
When using the composite video output please make sure that
a dedicated video cable (75 with RCA plugs is used, and
not an audio cable with RCA plugs !!!

Shooting area outside
of the working surface:
Close-up adaptor lens
For shooting an object outside the working surface,
in a further distance to the unit, the close up lens (7)
has to be adjusted.
In this case just pull the lens away from the main
optic of the camera until it reaches the locked position.
It is impossible to remove the lens completely from
the unit, therefore it can not get lost.

working position, push the close up lens back in
