ClipLink™ function

The ClipLink function links all stages from shooting to editing. Once editing points have been set with this function during shooting, they can be used to boost the efficiency of editing work.

Creation of clips

Using the ClipLink function, the camcorder operator can create clips to be used during editing.

The images captured at the Mark IN points are recorded in a compressed format onto the tape as “Index Pictures” 1). In addition, editing point-related data (scene number, time code for Mark IN/OUT points, etc.) is recorded in the cassette memory.
