Chapter 3 Recording and Playback — Special recording functions

ttDuring playback, setting or canceling the shot mark is not available, but while pausing the playback, setting or canceling the shot mark is available.

ttWhen video data obtained by a single shooting session by hot swap recording comprises multiple clips, the shot mark can be set or deleted only if all P2 cards containing that video data are inserted in the card slots. Also, with video data comprising multiple clips like this, the shot mark can be added to the top clip only.

Text memo recording function

Text memos can be added to any video point while a clip is being recorded or played back.

Only clips with a text memo added can be selected and displayed as thumbnails, thumbnails and time codes at text memo positions can be displayed and played back from text memo points, and only required positions can be selected and copied. (page 107)
