The following operations are not available for clips
recorded on SxS memory cards (FAT/exFAT format).

• Set the index picture frame
Selecting clips
Select clips with the selection frame
To move the selection frame
Do one of the following.
• Turn the PUSH SET knob.
• Press the arrow buttons.
• Turn the shuttle/jog dial. (The selection frame moves at
high speed in shuttle mode and at low speed in jog
mode.)
To jump to the first clip
Press the PREV button while holding down the SHIFT
button.
To jump to the last clip
Press the NEXT button while holding down the SHIFT
button.

Searching with thumbnails
You can put the clip list screen into thumbnails view
to search for desired clips while viewing
thumbnails.
To search for clips while viewing clip names, press the
DISPLAY button to switch to details view
To search through a clip in the expand
thumbnail screen
The expand function allows you to divide a clip selected in
the clip list screen into equally sized blocks, and to display
a list of thumbnails of those blocks. This is a quick and
efficient way to review the selected clip and search for
target scenes. You can specify 12, 144, or 1728 divisions.
1
In the clip thumbnail screen, select the thumbnail of
the clip that contains the scene you want to find.
2
Press the EXPAND function button (F6).
The selected clip is divided into 12 blocks, and a list
appears in the expand thumbnail screen
with the first frame of each block displayed as a
thumbnail.
3
Select the thumbnail that you want to expand further.
4
Repeat steps
2
and
3
up to 2 times, as required.
If the duration of each block after division would be
shorter than one frame, division is performed so that an
expand thumbnail screen is displayed in which the
duration of each block is one frame. In this case, no such
expand thumbnail screen is displayed that represents
further expansion.
For example, a 100-frame clip is divided into 100 blocks
when you press the EXPAND function button (F6) twice
and an expand thumbnail screen is displayed in which the
duration of each block is one frame. A third press of the
EXPAND function button (F6) displays no expand
thumbnail screen representing further expansion.
To return to the previous expansion level
Press the EXPAND function button (F6) while holding
down the SHIFT button.
To display the expand thumbnail screen of the
previous or next clip
With the expand thumbnail screen still active, press the
PREV button or the NEXT button.
An expand thumbnail screen appears displaying the
thumbnails of 12 equal blocks resulting from division of
the previous or next clip.
To search through a clip in the chapter
thumbnail screen
The chapter function allows you to display thumbnails of
the chapters in a clip.
See page 75 for more information about thumbnail view.
