It is your responsibility to make sure that you record in the correct format and frame rate, so ask the
Post Production Supervisor for the correct settings to use. NEVER GUESS. NEVER ASSUME. Different
editing houses and labs may prefer different settings according to their software and in-house workflow.
If you are selecting the pull-down or pull-up rate (48k +/-), you can select the FAKE RATE button in order
to stamp a 48k label onto a file in order to fool some recorders into performing a pull-up or pull-down in
order to sync up with some sprocketed FILM projects.
Otherwise, use the Actual Rate setting.
(You select the bit rate, 16 or 24, from the
REC SETUP
screen,
File Format
tab, as described further
below).
Select
NEXT
at the bottom of the screen…
Select the correct
FRAME RATE
for your project. Most so called 24 frame video and HD video is actually
23.976. Standard video is 29.97 (drop frame or non-drop frame, make sure you know which is correct).
Sprocketed or electronic FILM may require 24F or 30ND; be sure to ASK the lab or the Post Production
Supervisor.
After entering all of your parameters, you may finalize your choices by confirming the
CREATE PROJECT
button at the bottom of the screen.
