the screen.

 

 

 

 

At this time, the time code (HH:MM:SS) at the

 

 

Mark IN/OUT point for scene 001 is recorded to

 

 

the camcorder’s internal memory, and then

 

 

recorded to the cassette memory.

 

 

To set/clear NG

 

 

If you press the NG button before you set the next

 

 

Mark IN point, the previous scene will be

 

 

designated as “NG” (“NG” appears on the screen).

 

 

Once NG has been set, you can cancel it by

 

 

pressing the NG button again before you set the

 

 

next Mark IN point (the “NG” on the screen

 

 

disappears).

 

6 Repeat steps 4 and 5 as needed to record time

 

 

codes at Mark IN/OUT points, scene numbers, and

 

 

NG designations to cassette memory.

 

 

The scene number is automatically incremented

 

 

each time you specify a Mark IN point.

 

7 To finish shooting, press the VTR button on the

 

 

camcorder or lens.

 

 

This stops the recording operation.

 

 

The Index Pictures of each Mark IN point are

 

 

recorded onto the tape (when the DSBK-301 is

 

 

fitted).

Setting Cue points as you shoot

The following data is recorded onto the cassette when you specify a Cue point to highlight a scene.

•Time codes (HH:MM:SS) for Rec IN/OUT points

•Time codes (HH:MM:SS:frame) for Cue points

•Scene number: The scene number counter is automatically incremented with each Rec OUT point specification.

•NG designation, cassette name/number (if set from the camcorder)

•Index Pictures for all Rec IN points (when the DSBK-301 is fitted): these are recorded each time recording is stopped.

Perform the following procedure.
