Chapter 4 Shooting — Setting the time data
Frame rate information recorded on user bits
Saving the frame rate values for the image information shot/saved according to the frame rate set in the main menu
→
[SYSTEM MODE] to user bits
allows you to use the editor (personal computer editing software).
Information is always saved in VITC UB.
In addition, selecting [FRAME RATE] in the main menu
→
[RECORDING SETUP]
→
[UBG MODE] saves the information also in user bits (LTC UB). In
playback of clips recorded in native format, the same values as the frame rate information obtained by playing back recorded user bits are also output
as HD SDI output signals or user bits of TC output from the <TC IN/OUT> terminal.
Frame rate information
The relationship between frame rates, image pull-down, and time codes/user bits is as follows.
