Setting the Time Code

NOTES

When the frame rate is set to 24P, the frames value in the time code runs from 0 to 23. When the frame rate is set to 50i or PF25, it runs from 0 to 24. With other frame rates, it runs from 0 to 29.

72• When pre-recording mode is activated, [Free Run] is set automatically and cannot be changed.

When you mix drop frame and non-drop frame time codes, there might be a discontinuity in the time code at the point where the recording starts.

As long as the built-in rechargeable lithium battery is charged and you selected the [Free Run] running mode, the time code continues to run even if you disconnect all other power sources. However, this is less accurate than when the camcorder is on.

If you set an assignable button to [Time Code] (A89), you can press the button to open the [¤TC/UB Setup] >[Time Code] submenu.
