Recording Shot Marks Rec Review

When you record shot marks for important scenes as subsidiary data, you can access the marked points easily on a Shot Mark screen, which only displays scenes with shot marks only. This increases editing efficiency.

For the Shot Mark Screen, see “Displaying the SHOT MARK Screen” on page 105.

Recording	The camcorder permits you to record two types of
	shot marks: shot mark 1 and shot mark 2.
	Shot marks can be recorded as needed during
	recording or can be added after recording while
	checking the playback pictures.

•During Rec Review playback, only the STOP button is valid.

When the STOP button is pressed, Rec Review is canceled, and the camcorder returns to STBY

(recording standby) status.
