Setting The User Bit - Canon EOS C300 Instruction Manual

Setting the User Bit

The user bit display can be selected from the date or the time of
recording, or an identification code consisting of 8 characters in the
hexadecimal system. There are sixteen possible characters: the numbers
0 to 9 and the letters A to F.
If user bit information is being received along with an external time code,
you can also record the external user bit on the recording media.
