Shooting with the DSR-1/1P

Chapter 3 Shooting

The DXC-D35/D35P/D35WS/D35WSP docks with the DSR-1/1P to configure a DVCAM Camcorder. The following describes how to shoot using a DVCAM camcorder.

Using the ClipLink Function

The ClipLink function can be used at all stages from shooting to editing. This function makes editing operations more efficient by automatically recording index pictures (Mark IN point images) that provide a searchable index of recorded scenes, along with other data such as time code and scene numbers.

For concept of the ClipLink function, see the section “What Is ClipLink”(page 102).

1 Dock the DSR-1/1P to the camera head and turn on the power, then perform steps 2 to 10 from “Basic Procedure for Shooting” (page 43).

2 Insert a cassette into the DSR-1/1P and set ClipLink mode to ON by menu setting.

For details of this operation, see the operating instructions for the DSR-1/1P.

The following display appears on the viewfinder screen.

3 Press the VTR button on the camera head or the lens.

The DSR-1/1P starts recording, and the REC/ TALLY indicator lights in the viewfinder. Meanwhile, the time code at the recording start point (Rec IN) is recorded (HH:MM:SS) in the DSR-1/1P’s internal memory.

4 When a shooting of the scene completes, press the VTR button on the camera head or the lens.

This pauses recording.

To continue recording the next scene, repeat steps 3 and 4. The scene number will be automatically incremented.

To set/clear NG (No Good)

If you press the NG button before you start shooting the next scene, the previous scene will be designated as “NG” (the “NG” display appears in the viewfinder).

Once NG has been set, you can cancel it by pressing the NG button again before you start shooting the next scene (the “NG” display in the viewfinder disappears, which means that the previous scene has been re-designated as “OK”). Each time you press the NG button before starting shooting the next scene, the status of the previous scene toggles between “NG” and “OK”. It is always the last selected status that will take effect

Setting Mark IN/OUT points as you shoot

Instead of continuing shots from scene to scene, you can specify Mark IN and Mark OUT points as you shoot and set scene numbers (ranging from 001 to 198).

1 Perform steps 1 and 2 from “Using the ClipLink Function” (page 46).

2 Access basic menu page 6 and perform the following operations.

1)Set MARK/CUE to MARK.

The ClipLink mode indication “CLIP M” appears on the viewfinder screen.

2)Set the cassette name or number if necessary.

For details of menu operations, see “Basic Menu Operations” (page 58).

3 Press the VTR button on the camera head or the lens.

The DSR-1/1P starts recording, and the REC/ TALLY indicator(s) light(s) in the viewfinder.

4 Press the TAKE button when you find a shot where you would like to set a Mark IN point.

5 Press the TAKE button when you find a shot where you would like to set a Mark OUT point.

The TAKE/TALLY indicator (orange) goes out in the viewfinder and the “TAKE” disappears from the screen.

At this time, the time code (HH:MM:SS) at the Mark IN/OUT point for scene 001 is recorded to the DSR-1/1P’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” (the “NG” display appears in the viewfinder).

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” display in the viewfinder disappears).

6 Repeat steps 4 and 5 as needed to record (to cassette memory) time codes at Mark IN/OUT points, scene numbers, and NG designations to the cassette memory.

The scene number is automatically incremented each time you specify a Mark OUT point.

7 To finish shooting, press the VTR button on the camera head or the lens, then press the DSR-1/1P’s

To record the cassette name/number

Access basic menu page 6 to specify a name or number for the inserted cassette.

For details, see “Basic menu page 6” (page 60).

When using the ClipLink function while shooting, if you continue shooting after stopping or if you change the tape’s recording position, your subsequent shots may overwrite and erase the previously recorded ClipLink log data (time codes, scene number, etc.) or index pictures.

To avoid this problem, press the DSR-1/1P’s ClipLink CONTINUE button before restart of shooting.

The TAKE/TALLY indicator (orange) lights in the viewfinder and “TAKE” appears on the screen.
