Creating a sub clip from a full-screen display clip, and including it in the clip list (Quick scene selection)

To create any sub clip from a full-screen display clip, and include it in the clip list, proceed as follows.

1 With the SUBCLIP button off, and the clip shown in the full-screen display, carry out playback and search to find the point you want to be the IN point of the sub clip.

2 At the point you want to be the IN point of the sub clip, hold down the G/IN button and press the SET button.

This sets the IN point, and the IN indicator lights.

3 In the same way, find the point you want to be the OUT point of the sub clip, hold down the g/OUT button and press the SET button.

This sets the OUT point, and the OUT indicator lights.

When you set IN and OUT points across several clips

The number of sub clips created equals the number of clips from the IN point to the OUT point. (See following figure.)
