3-1 Description of Structure
The DZ-GX5080A/GX5020A/GX5000A is produced based on the previous DZ-BX37A/BX35A.
Therefore the confi guration of components closely resembles that of DZ-BX37A/BX35A.
(1) Major differences from DZ-BX37A/BX35A
1) The shape, design and color at the top of product and on the left (LCD monitor side) are
different.
2) The lens unit is different.
(2) Major circuit boards /units in DZ-GX5080A/GX5020A/GX5000A
(a) DVD drive unit (DRG circuit board):
The DRG circuit board in unit incorporates the DVD drive circuit and the power supply
circuit of the entire DVD video camera/recorder.
(b) Lens unit:
Although the magnifi cation of zoom is different for DZ-GX5080A/GX5020A (30-power optical
zoom) and DZ-GX5000A (25-power optical zoom), the shape of lens unit is identical.
(c) EVF unit
(d) LCD unit (LCD circuit board):
The LCD circuit board in unit incorporates the LCD monitor drive and backlight drive
circuits.
(e) AVJ2-L/AVJ3-L circuit board:
Incorporates the AV output jack and PC connection terminal.
AVJ2-L is for DZ-GX5080A; AVJ3-L for DZ-GX5020A/GX5000A.
(f) FRT2-L/FRT3-L circuit board:
Incorporates the white balance (WB) sensor, internal microphone amp, etc.
The FRT2-L circuit board in DZ-GX5080A also has LED light circuit.
FRT2-L is for DZ-GX5080A; FRT3-L for DZ-GX5020A/GX5000A.
(g) GSL2-L/GSL3-L circuit board:
This circuit board connects the CCD image sensor to MAN circuit board. It incorporates an
EIS sensor, CCD drive IC, etc.
GSL2-L is for DZ-GX5080A; GSL3-L for DZ-GX5020A/GX5000A.
(h) LMF2-L/LMF3-L circuit board:
This circuit board connects the circuit board (incorporating a card slot) in L case to MAN
circuit board.
LMF2-L is for DZ-GX5080A; LMF3-L for DZ-GX5020A/GX5000A.
(i) MAN circuit board:
Incorporates the circuits that control the entire DVD video camera/recorder and the video/
audio signal processing circuits.
(j) SDL circuit board:
Incorporates an SD memory card slot. It also relays the MAN circuit board and LCD unit.
