CONTINUOUS RECORD
Continuous Record is the “normal” recording mode. The camera continuously records frames at the current
sensor frame rate. You can limit each recording to a specific amount of frames using the Limit Recording to
setting.
INTERNAL TIMELAPSE TIMER
In Internal Timelapse Timer mode, the camera records a specified number of frames at a specified interval. The
current sensor frame rate determines the timing of the frames per pulse.
For example, in Internal Timelapse Timer mode, you can choose to record a total amount of 1000 frames, and
take 1 frame every 4.67 seconds. After recording 1000 frames (which takes 4,670.00 seconds), the recording
process stops.
To use Internal Timelapse Timer mode, follow the instructions below:
1. Go to
Menu
>
Settings
>
Recording
>
Mode
.
2. Select
Internal Timelapse Timer
from the
Recording Mode
drop-down menu.
3. Use the
Limit Recording to
fields
to set the recording to end at a predefined frame limit (optional).
4. Select the number of frames to be captured in the
Record
field.
5. Select the time interval from the
Interval
field (range is 1–3,599 sec). The Interval setting specifies the
frequency at which the frame or group of frames is captured.
6. Close the menu.
7. Start recording to start the interval.
The overlay displays the number of frames recorded out of the total amount of frames.
FRAME TRIGGER
In Frame Trigger mode, the camera records the specified number of frames for each external trigger. This mode
limits the REDCODE based on sustainable record rates.
To use Frame Trigger mode, follow the instructions below:
1. Go to
Menu
>
Settings
>
Recording
>
Mode
.
2. Select
Frame Trigger
from the
Recording Mode
drop-down menu.
3. Use the
Limit Recording to
fields
to set the recording to end at a predefined frame limit (optional).
4. Select a
Pre Count
and
Post Count
. For more information, go to
“Pre Count and Post Count” on page 87
.
5. Close the menu.
6. Start recording.
The overlay displays the number of frames recorded out of the total amount of frames.
NOTE:
There may be a delay between receiving the external trigger and capturing the next frame(s). The delay
may be as long one (1) frame period at the current sensor frame rate. To completely synchronize frames to an
external trigger, set
Sensor Sync Mode
to
MoCo
. For more information, go to
BURST MODE
In Burst mode, the camera can record at a lower compression (REDCODE) for the specified amount of frames.
When Burst mode is enabled and recording starts, the camera captures a “burst” of frames at the lower
REDCODE, and then continues to record at the next available REDCODE. To add more bursts to clips during
recording, press any key mapped to “Record: Mark Frame”.
To use Burst mode, follow the instructions below:
1. Go to
Menu
>
Settings
>
Recording
>
Mode
.
2. Select
Burst
from the
Recording Mode
drop-down menu.
3. Use the
Limit Recording to
fields
to set the recording to end at a predefined frame limit (optional).
4. Select a
Pre Count
and
Post Count

“Pre Count and Post Count” on page 87
