Special Recording Modes

NOTES

• You can use only one special recording mode at a time.

90• While recording, you cannot change the number of frames.

Some frames at the point the recording was stopped may be recorded and added to the end of the clip.

Frame recording mode will be deactivated if the special recording mode is changed or turned off. It will be deactivated also if you change the [JOther Functions] [Bit Rate/Resolution] or [Frame Rate] setting.

The time code advances by the number of frames recorded. If the running mode of the time code (070) is set to [Free Run] or the time code is input from an external source (bonly), the running mode will switch to [Rec Run] during special recording mode. When special recording mode is deactivated, the running mode will return to its previous setting.

bDuring special recording mode, the time code signal will not be output from the GENLOCK/TC terminal or HD/SD SDI terminal.

Slow & Fast Motion Mode

When you set [JOther Functions] [Frame Rate] to a progressive frame rate (046), the camcorder can record with a frame rate (shooting frame rate) that is different from the playback frame rate. Recording a clip at a higher frame rate than the [Frame Rate] setting will result in a slow motion effect during playback. Conversely, a lower frame rate will result in a fast motion effect. Sound is not recorded in this mode.
