Features
• The HVL-LBP is a video light that uses a high-brightness white LED as its lens light source.
• The white LED has a long lifetime of about 10,000 hours along with excellent impact-
resistance and weather-resistance qualities, and so requires hardly any maintenance. It is built
to last and does need to be replaced.
• By using the battery adaptor cord when the video light is attached to your camcorder, the
weight of the camcorder is reduced and so is lighter to hold.
Precautions
• The video light does not have dust-proof, splash-proof or water-proof specifications.
• The video light is a precision instrument. Do not cause strong impacts to the video light such
as by dropping it or striking it.
• Use the “InfoLITHIUM” battery pack NP-F970/F960/F770/F750/F730. The NP-F970/F770 is
recommended.
• The “InfoLITHIUM” battery pack NP-F570/F550/F530/F330 cannot be used.
• Do not attach the video light to a camcorder equipped with an intelligent accessory shoe. The
accessory shoe may be damaged.
•Only use the video light within an ambient temperature range of 0 °C (35 °F) to 40 °C (104 °F).
• Do not block the vents. Doing so will raise the internal temperature, and it may cause a fire or
accident, or cause the unit to malfunction.
• Do not look directly at the white LED while it is on. It may damage your eyes.
• To prevent the camcorder from dropping, do not carry your camcorder by the video light
when it is attached.
• Do not place the video light near combustible or volatile solvents, such as alcohol or benzine.
Doing so may cause fire or smoke to be emitted.
•Do not allow any liquids into the video light or drop combustible objects or metal objects on
the video light. Doing so may cause a fire or cause the unit to malfunction if used.
•During use or storage, do not place the video light in the following locations. Doing so may
cause the video light to malfunction or deform:
– Hot weather or abnormally hot locations such as inside a car with closed windows
– Direct sunlight or near heating apparatus
– Locations subject to intense vibrations
• The battery pack life is shorter when used at low or high ambient temperatures, so the
lighting time is also reduced. The battery capacity deteriorates. When using the battery packs
at the temperature of 10 °C (50 °F) or less, the following steps are recommended for longer
battery life:
– To warm the battery pack, put it in your pocket. (Do not put the battery pack together with
a pocket heat pad.) Just before recording, insert the battery pack into the video light.
–Charge the battery pack at room temperature (from 10 °C (50 °F) to 30 °C (86 °F)).
• When you have finished using the video light, be sure that the POWER switch on the video
light is set to OFF.
• When not using the video light or when you have finished using it, remove the battery pack.
• Do not store away the video light immediately after using it. The white LED may be damaged
by the generated heat. Check that the power of the video light is set to OFF and the video
light has cooled sufficiently before storing it in your bag, etc.
• Leaving the condenser lens in direct sunlight while closed could cause a malfunction. Leaving
the condenser lens in direct sunlight while open could cause fire near the focal point of the
lens.
• Recording with the video light attached to the video camera body can slightly affect the
recorded sound.
A Identifying the parts
Using the condenser lens
Illuminance can be doubled by using the condenser lens.
The angle of illuminance will become narrower.
Using the diffuser
The diffuser reduces glare and softens the light.
Notes
• When recording with the video light, if the subject is too close to the camcorder, several
shadows of the subject may overlap (multi-shadow).
•The color temperature varies slightly depending on the position of the BRIGHT dial and the
temperature of the white LED. Always adjust the white balance of the video camera manually
before recording.
• When storing the video light, store the condenser lens first, followed by the diffuser and then
the protection plate.
Checking the remaining battery capacity
The remaining battery capacity can be checked even if the POWER switch is set to OFF.
1Attach the battery pack to the video light.
2 With the POWER switch set to OFF, press the battery check button.
3 The remaining battery lamp lights up in steps as the remaining battery capacity
is checked and calculated.
4About 8 seconds after, the remaining battery capacity will be displayed.
5 After about 10 seconds, the remaining battery lamp will turn off.
If you press the battery check button, the calculation or display function will be stopped.
If you turn on the POWER switch while the remaining battery capacity is being calculated or
displayed, POWER ON operation begins. (Remaining battery capacity is rechecked.)
Lamp indicators
Remaining battery lamp
This indicator shows the approximate remaining battery power. The remaining battery power
will be displayed about 8 seconds after setting the POWER switch to ON or after pressing the
battery check button.
(4 segments lit) About 75% or more
(3 segments lit) About 50% - 75%
(2 segments lit) About 25% - 50%
(1 segment lit) About 5% - 25%
(1 segment flashing) About 5% or less
• When the battery capacity is low ( when flashing)
About 5 minutes before the batteries run out, the remaining battery lamp turns green and
begins to slowly flash (1 segment).
The time before the batteries run out varies depending on the frequency of use of the batteries
and the ambient temperature. This indicator should only be used as a rough guide, and it is
recommended that the batteries be replaced promptly.
• When the battery pack runs out
When the battery pack runs out, the video light goes out and the remaining battery lamp
turns green and blinks rapidly for about 10 seconds (1 segment). Set the POWER switch to
OFF and recharge the battery pack or replace it with a fully charged battery pack.
• Communication error
(4 segments flash) For about 10 seconds after the remaining battery check is complete
If an error occurs for some reason during communication with the battery pack or if batteries
other than the Sony “InfoLITHIUM” battery pack L series are inserted, 4 segments flash for 10
seconds to indicate a communication error and then the remaining battery display
disappears.
Notes
• When using batteries other than the Sony “InfoLITHIUM” battery pack L series (NP-F900
range, NP-F700 range) with the video light, the remaining battery capacity will not be
displayed.
• When using a battery pack that only has a short lifetime remaining, the remaining battery
display may not agree with the actual remaining battery capacity.
• When using a “InfoLITHIUM” battery pack attached to the “InfoLITHIUM” compatible AC
adaptor/charger, the available operating time will not be displayed. To display the operating
time, attach the battery pack to the camcorder and then use for about 20 seconds before
attaching the battery pack to the AC adaptor/charger again.
•The battery pack cannot be recharged with the video light.
TEMP lamp
When the white LED overheats for some reason, the video light will be turned off for safety
reasons, and the TEMP lamp turns red and blinks rapidly for about 60 seconds. If the ambient
temperature is high, use the video light at a lower temperature.
If the TEMP lamp continues to blink, stop using the video light and consult your Sony dealer or
local authorized Sony service facility.
Removing the video light
1Set the POWER switch to OFF.
2 Slide the battery release button and at the same time pull the battery pack
upward.
3 Turn the light attachment knob on the video light toward RELEASE.
