Basic Operation

Basic recording can be performed with the
following procedures.
1
Make sure that the necessary devices are
attached to the unit and power is supplied
to them.
2
Set the power switch (page 9) to the
ON position.
The recording screen is displayed on the
viewfinder screen.
3

If you load two AXS memory cards,
recording is continued by automatically
switching to the second card when the
first card becomes full.
4
Press the REC button (pages 9, 11).
The REC lamp lights and recording begins.
[Note]
If the unit cannot start recording immediately after
the pressing the REC button, the REC lamp flashes.
The REC lamp lights when recording starts.
5
To stop recording, press the REC button
again.
Recording stops and the unit enters STBY
(recording standby) mode.
When you stop recording, the video,
audio, and subsidiary data from the start
to the end of the recording are recorded
as a single clip.
Clip names
Clip names are recorded using the "Cam ID
+ Reel#" format. The clip name is created
according to the following rules.
• When there is already a clip that is stored
using the "Cam ID + Reel#" name format on
the inserted AXS memory card, the new file
inherits from the last file.
Example: If "B002C003_XXXXXXXX" exists on
the AXS memory card, the next created clip
will be named "B002C004_XXXXXXXX."
• If the inserted AXS memory card has no
files, "1" is added to the Reel Number of the
clip that was recorded last.
Example: If you record on empty card 2 after
recording up to "D001CXXX_XXXXXXXX" on
card 1, the next created clip will be named
"D002C001_XXXXXXXX." The clip name is
displayed underlined until recording starts.
• If you set Camera ID and Reel Number using
the TC/Media category in the menu, that
information is applied.
Example: If you change Camera ID to "F"
and Reel Number to "001" in the menu for
the AXS memory card that has recorded up
to "E003CXXX_XXXXXXXX," the next clip will
be named "F001CXXX_XXXXXXXX." When
you change Camera ID only, Reel Number is
changed to "001."
