Notes on transferring multiple still images together

Transferring all of the still image files within frame memory together fails if the capacity of the memory card is too small to hold all of the images. In this case, replace with a larger capacity memory card, or delete still images until saving is possible.

The following table roughly shows the relation between memory card capacity and number of images that can be saved.

256 MB

46

 

 

 

a) For all available signal formats except 720P

Note that when transferring to the hard disk, there is ample capacity, so that problems such as this do not occur.

If you cancel the operation during a data transfer between frame memory and hard disk or memory card, then an image which was not completely transferred will not be reproducible. Avoid canceling such operations.

When loading a still image file from hard disk or memory card, if [Freeze Enable] in the Freeze menu is on, the loaded still image file may sometimes be overwritten by the frame memory input image.

To avoid this when loading a file, ensure that [Freeze Enable] is turned off.

Notes on saving or recalling a frame memory still image for or by a snapshot/keyframe

The saving and recalling of frame memory images for snapshots and keyframes is restricted to the still images or clips on the eight frame memory outputs. The settings made for frame memory images in the Freeze menu, Composite menu or other menus do not apply to snapshots or keyframes.

To reproduce a frame memory still image or a clip of them by recalling a snapshot or keyframe, you must have the same images that were present in the frame memory when you saved the snapshot or keyframe. Therefore, when saving a snapshot or keyframe using frame memory, you must also save the images to a storage media such as the hard disk.

Note on transferring ancillary data

Ancillary data is recorded when the frame memory saving mode is set to “save with ancillary data,” and can be saved to an external storage device such as a hard disk or memory card, and recalled. However, the ancillary data can only be saved or recalled when the frame memory saving mode is set to “save with ancillary data,” and when ancillary data is present in the saved or recalled frame memory file, and moreover when the system signal format is the same as the signal format in the file.
