Protecting Important Scenes (OK Mark Function)

You can append OK marks to the clips for important scenes. Clips appended with OK marks cannot be deleted, thus protecting the important clips. In addition, you can display only the clips with OK marks in the thumbnail display during Media mode.

Memo :

Special Recording

Besides the normal recording mode, three special recording methods are available in this camera recorder. They are Pre Rec, Clip Continuous Rec, and Variable Frame Rec.

Select the mode from [Rec Mode] in the [Record Set] menu.

*Set using [Main Menu] B [Record Set] B [Rec Mode]. (A Page 76)

Pre Rec

By setting the number of seconds in the [Pre Rec Time], you can start recording video and audio before actual recording starts based on the Pre Rec Time setting.

When starting actual recording while the camera recorder is in Recording Standby (STBYP) mode, you can start recording a few seconds earlier based on the [Pre Rec Time] setting.

Using Pre Rec allows you to record a complete event without missing the initial scenes even if you start the recording late.

*Pre Rec Time can be set to A5secB, A10secB, or A20secB in [Main Menu] B [Record Set] B [Pre Rec Time].
