Usage Precautions

If the unit is suddenly taken from a cold to a warm location, or if ambient temperature suddenly rises, moisture may form on the outer surface of the unit and/or inside of the unit. This is known as condensation. If condensation occurs, turn off the unit and wait until the condensation clears before operating the unit. Operating the unit while condensation is present may damage the unit.

The fan and battery are consumable parts that will need periodic replacement.

When operating at room temperature, a normal replacement cycle will be about 5 years. However, this replacement cycle represents only a general guideline and does not imply that the life expectancy of these parts is guaranteed. For details on parts replacement, contact your dealer.

The life expectancy of the AC adapter and the electrolytic capacitor is about 5 years under normal operating temperatures and normal usage (8 hours per day; 25 days per month). If usage exceeds the above normal usage frequency, the life expectancy may be reduced correspondingly.

The battery terminal of this unit (the connector for battery packs and AC adaptors) is a consumable part. Power may not be supplied to the unit properly if the pins of the battery terminal are bent or deformed by shock or vibrations, or if they become corroded due to prolonged outdoor use. Periodic inspections are recommended to keep the unit working properly and to prolong its usable lifetime. Contact a Sony service or sales representative for more information about inspections.

Features Location and Function of Parts

The AXS-R7 is a portable memory recorder that uses AXS memory cards (A-series only) as the recording media. It features a toggle connector for connection to camcorders, such as the PMW-F5/F55 and MPC-3610 (VENICE/CineAltaV).

It supports recording and playback operations controlled from the connected camcorder.

Notes

• PMW-F5/F55 firmware version 8.0 or later is required for connection with the PMW-F5/F55.
• When used connected with an MPC-3610, the firmware version of the unit must match the MPC-3610 version. For details, refer to the operating instructions for the MPC-3610.

• High frame rate (HFR) function support

- 4K 120 FPS recording

Supports recording in 4K at 120 FPS when connected to a PMW-F55 or MPC-3610. 4K 5× slow recording is supported by recording at a system frequency of 23.98P.

- 6K 90 FPS recording

Supports recording in 6K at 90 FPS when connected to a MPC-3610 (VENICE/CineAltaV). A High Frame Rate license (CBKZ-3610H/3610HM/3610HW) is required for high frame rate shooting. For details, refer to the operating instructions for the MPC-3610 (VENICE/CineAltaV).

Note

Use AXS-A512S48 or AXS-A1TS48 memory cards when recording in 4K 120 FPS RAW SQ, 4K 120 FPS X-OCN ST, or 6K 90 FPS X-OCN. For details, refer to the operating instructions for the MPC-3610 (VENICE/CineAltaV).

• Recording in new X-OCN format

In addition to F55RAW recording mode, it also supports recording in the new, more efficient X-OCN recording mode.

• Picture cache function

Supports recording of video and audio data shot before recording is physically started by always caching several seconds (up to 30 seconds) of data in internal memory.
