External Synchronization - Sony PMW-300K2 Operating Instructions Manual

External Synchronization

When multiple units of the camcorder are used in
the same shooting location, recording can be
made in synchronization with a specific reference
signal, and the timecode can be matched among
all the units.
Aligning the phase of the video signal
(Genlock)
Genlock operation is enabled by supplying a
reference signal to the GENLOCK IN connector
(page 12) of the camcorder.
Valid reference signals depend on the video
format selected.
When the video format is UDF HD422 50/1080/
23.98P or HQ 1920×1080/23.98P, or FAT HQ
1920×1080/23.98P, HQ 1440×1080/23.98P,
select either "23.98PsF" or "59.94i (2-3 Pull
Down)" in "23.98P Output" (page 91) in the
VIDEO SET menu.
