2-Slot Continuous Recording; Shot Mark Function - Panasonic AGHPX255 Operating Instructions Manual

2-slot continuous recording

If you insert two P2 cards into the two card slots,
this function allows you to record continuously on
the two cards.
You can also record continuously on three or more
cards by replacing one card while data is being
recorded on the other. (Hot swap recording)
However, depending on when the P2 card is
inserted into an empty slot (immediately after
prerecording, or before or after continuous
recording spanning two slots), there may be a
delay in recognizing the P2 card.
We recommend inserting the P2 card while there
is at least one minute remaining on the card that is
recording.
You can change the slot for recording with one
touch if you press a USER button to which the
SLOT SEL has been allocated.
• "Using the USER buttons" (Page 39)
• You cannot change slots while recording so do
this during recording standby.
• Does not support hot swap playback.

Shot mark function

The marks attached to the thumbnails of clips
are called shot marks. On the thumbnail screen
monitor you can select only those clips with a shot
mark and display them or play them back.
• "Switching the thumbnail display" (Page 80)
During recording, when you press the USER button
to which the SHOT MARK function has been
allocated, MARK ON appears in the LCD monitor
or the viewfinder, and a shot mark is set for the
thumbnail of the clip being recorded. If you press
the button again, the shot mark is released.
• "Using the USER buttons" (Page 39)
• A shot mark added during a pause after
recording is added to the most recently
recorded clip.
• Shot marks can be added also in the
thumbnail display.
• The shot mark function is not available
during loop recording, interval recording
and one-shot recording. When this function
is not available, pressing this button
displays SHOT MARK INVALID.
• Shot marks can be set or cancelled in
playback pause mode but not during
playback.
• Shot marks cannot be set or deleted for
video data created in a single hot-swap
recording session consisting of multiple
clips unless all the P2 cards that contain
the video data for the entire session are
inserted. In clips that consist of multiple
clips like the one above, shot marks can be
added only to the first clip of video data.
