Introducing the Canon Remote Controller RC-V100

Thank you for purchasing this Canon product.
The Remote Controller RC-V100 was especially developed to operate compatible Canon Digital Cinema Cameras and HD Camcorders (hereafter, simply “camera”) from a distance.
By simply connecting the remote controller to the REMOTE terminal on the camera with the supplied (or an optional) remote cable, you can easily operate many of the camera’s functions. For details about compatible functions, refer to the most up-to-date version of the camera’s Instruction Manual (PDF file). The remote controller will draw its power supply from the camera.

Basic operation of the camera ( 11)
Using the remote controller, you can turn the camera on/off, navigate the camera’s menus and easily change custom picture and other settings.
Control recording functions ( 11)
Using the remote controller, you can start and stop recording, display color bars, review recordings and control many other recording functions.
Adjust the aperture, focus and zoom ( 15, 16)
The remote controller features independent IRIS, FOCUS and ZOOM dials for easy direct operation. The IRIS dial is larger and placed closer to the operator to allow for easier access.
Controls for ISO speed/gain, shutter speed and ND filter ( 12)
Controls for white balance and master black ( 14)
You can easily adjust settings that affect the overall color balance of the picture, like the white balance and master black. Both have separate R Gain and B Gain adjustment dials.
Assignable buttons ( 17)
The remote controller has 4 assignable buttons. You can assign frequently used functions to these buttons and easily operate them from the remote controller.
Controls for adjusting the picture quality ( 13, 16)
You can easily adjust settings that affect the gradation and sharpness of the picture (master pedestal, knee settings, black gamma level and sharpness level) using convenient dedicated adjustment dials.
Key lock function ( 16)
Using the ACTIVE button on the remote controller, you can lock all or part of the buttons and dials on the remote controller. This can be useful for preventing unwanted changes due to inadvertently operating one of the controls.
Customization ( 19)
You can personalize various aspects of the remote controller to your preferences.
For example, you can change the direction and sensitivity of the dials or the brightness of buttons and indicators.

Handling Precautions

• Do not disassemble the remote controller. If the remote controller does not function properly, consult qualified service personnel.

• Do not subject the remote controller to shocks or vibration as this may cause damage.

• Do not use or store the remote controller in dusty or sandy places. The remote controller is not waterproof – avoid also water, mud or salt. If any of the above should get into the remote controller it may damage it. Consult a Canon Service Center as soon as
  possible.

• Do not leave the remote controller in places subject to high temperatures (like the inside of a car parked under direct sunlight), or high humidity.

• Do not connect the remote controller to cameras or other devices that are not compatible with the remote controller.

• After storing the remote controller, or while using it in very cold or very hot surroundings, do not touch the metallic parts of the remote controller with bare hands. The remote controller has a metallic exterior surface that is thermally conductive. It can easily get hot or cold depending on surrounding temperatures. In extreme cases, touching the remote controller with bare hands can cause contact burns or the skin to get stuck to the surface. Use the remote controller within the operating temperature range (0 – 40 °C (32 – 104 °F)).

Customization

You can personalize various aspects of the remote controller’s operation, including the brightness of buttons and indicators and the dials’ direction, to your preference.

• PAINT-group dials: KNEE POINT dial, KNEE SLOPE dial, BLACK GAMMA LEVEL dial, SHARPNESS LEVEL dial.
  ** WB/MB group dials: WHITE BALANCE R dial, WHITE BALANCE B dial, MASTER BLACK R dial, MASTER BLACK B dial.

About the dial modes
You can set the various dials’ mode to absolute or relative.
In relative mode, the value is adjusted according to the difference between the dial’s position before the change and its position after the change. In relative mode, the position of the dial does not reflect the current value of the setting being adjusted. In absolute mode, the position of the dial always corresponds to the current value of the setting being adjusted. The dial’s center position (where it clicks) represents the setting’s standard value and the dial’s end positions correspond to the setting’s maximum and minimum values.

NOTES

• When a dial is set to relative mode, the adjustment range may be narrowed depending on the initial position of the dial when it was activated.

To change the custom settings

1. Make sure the remote controller is off and not connected to any camera.
2. Open the cover of the SET UP switches.
3. Set the desired micro switch to the desired position.
   • Micro switches A-1 to A-8 are on the left and micro switches B-1 to B-8 are on the right.
   • With a toothpick or a similar pointed tool, slide the micro switch down to set it OFF; slide it up to set it ON.
   IMPORTANT
   • Make sure the remote controller is off before operating the SET UP switches.
