Using the Time Code

Available modes:

TAPE-VCR, TAPE-CAMERA

The time code shows the hour, minute and second of recording, and the frame number (1 frame = approx. 1/25 sec.). This is automati- cally recorded along with the subject when you are recording on the tape. You can display the time code on the screen as an accurate counter in both TAPE-VCR and TAPE-CAMERA modes.
