The time code is a time reference
recorded automatically to synchronize
the movie during movie shooting. It is
recorded at all times in the following
units: hours, minutes, seconds, and
frames. It is mainly used during movie
editing.
Use [
z
5: Time code ] (the [
z
3 ] tab in
<
A
> mode) to set the time code.
Rec run : The time code counts up only while you are shooting a
movie. The time code will continue in the sequence of the
movie files captured.
Free run : The time code counts up whether you are shooting a
movie or not.
You can set the time code’s initial point (start time).
Manual input setting : You can freely set the hour, minute, second, and
frames.
Reset : The time set with [ Manual input setting ] and
[ Set to camera time ] is reset to “00:00:00.” or
“00:00:00:” (p.368).
Set to camera time : Sets hours, minutes, and seconds to match the
camera’s internal clock. “Frames” will be set to “00”.

If you shoot a High Frame Rate movie with [ Free run ] set, the time code
will not be appended.
If [ Free run ] is set and you change the time, zone, or daylight saving
time (p.51), the time code will be affected.
If you play back an MP4 movie with a device other than the camera, the
time code may not be displayed properly.
