Drop frame/Non-drop frame mode

To preset the Time Code, make the following settings.

■TC GENE. switch

Set to PRST REC or PRST FREE.

PRST REC : The data preset in the time code generator runs only during recording.

Use this setting if it is necessary to record

continual time codes across different scenes.

*However, approximately ±1-frame variations may occur in scene accuracy.

PRST FREE : The time code starts to run from the time it is preset in the time code generator.

■TC/UB/CLOCK menu screen

Use the DROP/NON DROP item to select the framing mode for the time code generator.

DROP : The time code generator’s running method is set to the drop frame mode.

Use this setting when placing emphasis on the recording time.

NON DROP : The time code generator’s running method is set to the non drop frame mode.

Use this setting when placing emphasis on the number of frames.

In the NTSC system, the actual number of frames per 1 second is approximately 29.97 frames, but per time code 30 frames are processed. To compensate for this difference, the mode called “drop mode” drops frame 00 and 01 for every minute not divisible by 10.

The “non-drop frame mode” is when no frames are dropped and the actual time shift is neglected.
