Shot Mark Function

A shot mark is added to the thumbnail of a clip to distinguish that clip from others. It is also possible to select only those clips which include shot marks, and display and playback the selected clips on the LCD monitor.

Adding Shot Marks

To add a shot mark during recording, press the SHOT MARKER button. The viewfinder displays “MARK ON” and adds a shot mark to the thumbnail of the appropriate clip. Another press of the button erases the shot mark.

When the SHOT MARKER button is pressed during a recording pause, a shot mark is attached to the clip recorded immediately before. The shot mark can be deleted with another press.

Shot marks may also be added or erased using clip thumbnails. For more information, see [Shot Mark] (page 126).

Notes

During color bar output, LOOP REC recording, and in INTERVAL REC mode, it is not possible to add/delete shot marks.

It is impossible to add shot marks to incomplete clips (refer page 122).

For clips recorded on plural P2 cards or clips split on a P2 card (refer to Notes on page 10), a shot mark is added to the top clip only.
