In the unit, there is a video signal delay in the camera, which is required or the process of converting video images taken with the image-shooting element from the progressive signals to the interlace signals. Since time is required for making the 2:3 pull-down from the 24P frame, there is a video signal delay in the camera. When recording from a device that can record images without a delay and the unit is connected in parallel, it is necessary to synchronize the time code. To set this timing, open the <TC UB> screen from the VTR MENU page and set it in the TC VIDEO SYNCRO item.

Set by referring to the connection example.
