The recommended “Mode” settings are shown
below.
Time data, such as the timecodes, user bits, and
the clock time, are recorded with pictures.
For the timecode, three running modes and Clock
mode can be selected.
Rec Run mode
The timecode advances during recording only.
The continuity of the timecode is maintained
between clips in the sequence of recording as long
as the SxS memory card is not changed.
If you remove the memory card and record on
another card, the timecode will not continue when
you return the first card to the slot again.
Free Run mode
The timecode keeps advancing regardless of
recording.
Regen mode
The timecode advances during recording only.
When you insert another memory card, the
camcorder starts next recording so that the
timecode continues to the last recorded timecode
on the card.
Clock mode
The current clock time is recorded for the
timecode.
Note
In Interval Recording, Frame Recording, Slow &
Quick Motion Recording, the timecode advances
in Rec Run mode regardless of the “Run” setting
if you set “Mode” of “Timecode” to “Preset.”
If you set it to “Clock,” the timecode advances in
Regen mode.
