The adapter cable VMC-BNCM1 (sold separately) can only be used with this camera body. Do not connect it to the Micro USB

terminal of other devices.

When connecting the adapter cable to the camera, be careful not to apply excessive force to the Micro USB terminal of the

adapter cable.

When you set the camera to the external lock status, the time code is instantly locked to the external time code, and the same

value as the external time code appears on the time data display. However, do not start recording for a few seconds until the time

code generator stabilizes.

If the frequency of the reference time code and the frame frequency of the camera are not the same, the time code cannot be

locked correctly and the camera will not operate normally. In this case, the time code also cannot be properly locked to the

external time code.

The movie may be off by one frame per hour with respect to the reference time code.
