Thumbnail screen

Video data created on the P2 card in one shooting session is called a clip. When the MCR mode has been

established by the MEDIA switch set to the P2 status, the clips will be displayed on the LCD screen as

thumbnails. (When there is a large number of clips, it will take some time for them to be displayed on the

screen.)

You can perform the following operations using the thumbnail screen.

• Play, repair and delete clips as well as add and delete shot marks.

• Format P2 cards and SD memory cards.

• Load the metadata (shooting information, etc.) from SD memory cards to the unit.
