3Setting the Time Code 
| The time code is a time reference |
| recorded automatically to synchronize |
| the video and audio during movie |
| shooting. It is recorded at all times in the |
| following units: hours, minutes, seconds, |
| and frames. It is mainly used during |
| movie editing. |
| Set the time code with [z5: Time code]. |

Count Up |
|
[Rec run] | : The time code counts up only while you are shooting |
| a movie. The time code will be continuous across |
| sequential movie files recorded to the same card. |
[Free run] | : The time code counts up whether you are shooting or |
| not. |
Start Time Setting
You can set the time code’s start time.
[Manual input setting] : You can freely set the hour, minute, second,
| and frame. |
[Reset] | : The time set with [Manual input setting] and |
| [Set to camera time] is reset to 00:00:00:00. |
[Set to camera time] | : Sets hours, minutes, and seconds to match |
| the camera’s internal clock. “Frames” will be |
| set to 00. |
If [Free run] is set and you change the time, zone, or daylight saving time (zp.40), the time code will be affected.
“Regenerate” function is not available, that reads the last time code recorded in the old card and resumes the count in the new card when you replace or switch the card.
