Adjustments and Settings for Recording : Multi Format
The unit employs a progressive scan (full pixel reading) CCD system.
With combinations of the SYSTEM MODE and CAMERA MODE menu options on the SYSTEM MODE screen on the
SYSTEM SETTING menu page, you can select a recording format from among 17 types including HD (1080i, 720P) and
SD formats.
In any recording format, the CCD operates in progressive (non-interlace) scan mode. In addition, through the REC
SIGNAL menu option, you can record external input signals such as 1394 and SDI (optional).
SYSTEM MODE menu option
Allows you to select a combination of system
frequency (59.94 or 50 Hz) and signaling system
(1080i, 720P, 480i, or 576i). When a change has been
made to the SYSTEM MODE option, the viewfinder
indicates “TURN POWER OFF.” Then, turn the
POWER switch of the camera-recorder off and wait
five seconds or longer before turning the camera-
recorder on again.
