Normal and Variable Speed Playback

Normal speed playback

Press the PLAY/PAUSE button to view playback in the viewfinder and on the LCD monitor in color. Connecting a color video monitor to the VIDEO OUT connector or SDI OUT connector will enable playback of color video.

The PLAY/PAUSE button can be used to pause playback.

Fast-forward/fast-reverse playback

The FF and REW buttons provide 32× and 4× fast playbacks and fast reverse playbacks. In stop mode, this function will play back video at 32× speed and in playback mode, it will play back video at 4× speed.

Clip cue up

When playback is paused, the FF button locates the beginning of the next clip while staying in pause mode. When playback is paused, the REW button locates the beginning of the current clip while staying in pause mode.

NOTE

It may take some time to load clip data if playback is started or a thumbnail screen is opened right after removing or inserting a P2 card or turning the power on. The thumbnail screen displays UPDATING at such times.

If a P2 card is inserted while another P2 card is being played back, the clips on the inserted P2 card will not be played back. A P2 card inserted during playback will be recognised after playback ends.

If you perform variable speed playback on a clip split across more than one P2 card, sound may disappear for a moment. This is not a malfunction.

To play back a clip in a different SYSTEM MODE, adjust the SYSTEM MODE to the clip to reset the camera before playback.

Playback of the audio channels CH5 to CH8 recorded on another device is not possible.
