• You can use only one special recording mode at a time.
• While recording, you cannot change the number of frames.
• Some frames at the point the recording was stopped may be recorded and added to the end of the clip.
• Frame recording mode will be deactivated if the special recording mode is changed or turned off. It will be
deactivated also if you change the video configuration.
• During this special recording mode, the running mode of the time code (
A
84) can be set to [Rec Run] or
[Regen.]*. The time code advances by the number of frames recorded. If the running mode of the time code
(
A
84) is set to [Free Run] or the time code is input from an external source, the running mode will switch to
[Rec Run] during special recording mode. When special recording mode is deactivated, the running mode will
return to its previous setting.
• During special recording mode, the time code signal will not be output from the MON. terminals, TIME CODE terminal
or HD/SD SDI terminal. During 4K and 2K modes, the time code signal will be output from the 3G-SDI terminals.
* During MXF mode only.
