BACK SPACE [HDV]*
This function controls the camera tape transport, back space and pre-roll time when the camera is connected to an
external HDD or external back up Recorder via IEEE1394 in HDV mode.

Note 1:
REC start signal will be sent 3 seconds after pressing REC trigger button.
* Actual recording start time is depending on recorder performance.
Note 2:
REC start signal will be sent just after pressing REC trigger button.
* Actual recording start time is depending on recorder performance.
Note 3:
In this mode, the IEEE1394 stream is discontinuous during internal VCR back space editing (when the REC trigger
is operated). This may result in breaks in the recording on tape on an external recorder. In the case of HDD recording
this may result in this device staying in REC PAUSE or divided files.
Note 4:
If HD/SD SDI OUT on the VIDEO FORMAT[2/2] menu screen is set to ON, the internal VCR start delay becomes
approximately 3 seconds.
