Notes
• Shot marks cannot be recorded when the SxS memory
card is write protected.
• Shot marks cannot be added at the first frame of each
clip or last frame of the last clip.
You can switch a thumbnail screen to the
following thumbnail search screens, which allow
you quickly find the clips you want.
• Expand thumbnail screen
• Essence mark thumbnail screen (in HD mode

To search for scenes in clips with the
expand thumbnail screen
The expand thumbnail screen is convenient when
you want to find and cue up a specific scene in a
long clip.
To display the expand thumbnail screen, select a
clip in the thumbnail screen and press the DISP
SEL/EXPAND button
(see page 21)
or select
THUMBNAIL >Thumbnail View >Forward
Expansion in the setup menu. The selected clip is
displayed as follows.
HD mode:
The clip is divided into 12 equally-
sized blocks, and a thumbnail of the first
frame in each block is displayed.
SD mode:
Only in the case of clips that have been
split into partial files because the file size was
larger than 2 GB, a thumbnail of the first
frame of each partial file is displayed.
This helps you to quickly cue up to a desired
scene in a clip of long duration.
