Notes
When [
Rec Format] is set to [1080/24p
] or [1080/24p
], the frame mode is fixed
to [NDF].
Although 30 frames are considered as 1
second in time code processing, the actual
frame frequency of an NTSC image signal is
29.97 frames/sec. As a result, the time code
gradually lags behind real time as the recording
gets longer. The drop frame function adjusts
the time code to real time. In the drop frame
process, the first 2 frames of each second are
not recorded except in every tenth minute.
Recording without the drop frame process is
called non-drop frame recording.
TC Run
You can select how the time code advances.
Rec Run
Advances the time code only during
recording. Select this setting to record the
time code continuous from the last time code
of the previous recording.
Free Run
Advances the time code regardless of
operation of your camcorder.
