1)Shot marks

If you use a camcorder which allows you to use shot marks, you can insert REC START marks or shot marks in the user bits area in advance for easy editing.

This is called inserting shot marks.

2)Shot data

The information recorded continuously during the process of shooting is called shot data.

The contents of the display vary corresponding to the change of shooting conditions (e.g. changing camcorders, shooting on different dates, etc.). If there are any parts that contain no shot data by changing a shooting camcorder, the unit displays blank data.
