Recording status indicator
If Display On/Off (page 63) >HXR-IFR5 Rec
Control in the VF menu is set to On, the RAW
recording status is displayed in the viewfinder
using an icon.
[Note]
The RAW OUT connector of the camcorder only controls
recording by transmitting a Rec Control signal to the external
recorder, hence the camcorder may indicate RAW video
recording is in progress when the external recorder is not
actually recording. Check the indicator on the external
recorder to obtain the correct operating status.
Slow & Quick Motion Recording
If S&Q Motion >Setting in the Recording menu is
set to On, RAW video is recorded in Slow & Quick
Motion mode.
RAW output Slow & Quick Motion is supported
only for 2K resolution at 120/240 fps (NTSC) and
100/200 fps (PAL).
Adding Audio Input Connectors
You can connect up to four channels of XLR audio
devices to the camcorder at the same time by
using an XLR-K2M XLR adaptor (not supplied).
Attach the XLR adaptor to the MI shoe, and set
Audio Input >CH3 Input Select to Shoe 1 and CH4
Input Select to Shoe 2 in the Audio menu.
Camcorder functions that overlap will be disabled
for channels on which the XLR adaptor is selected
as the input. Use the switches and dials on the XLR
adaptor to perform adjustments.
[Notes]
ˎ If Audio Input >CH3 Level and CH4 Level in the Audio ˎ
menu are set to Audio Input Level, then Audio Input Level
on the camcorder will be set to match the level adjusted
on the XLR adaptor.
Audio Input Level is also enabled when the XLR adaptor
switch is set to AUTO.
When "Through" is specified, audio will be recorded at the
level adjusted with the XLR adaptor (page 95).
ˎ You can also assign to CH1 and CH2 by attaching an XLR
ˎ
adaptor and setting Audio Input >CH1 Input Select and
CH2 Input Select in the Audio menu to Shoe 1 and Shoe
2, respectively. However, if input from an XLR adaptor is
assigned to both CH1 and CH2, input from the INPUT1/
INPUT2 connectors on the camcorder can no longer be
assigned to the channels.
