PRE COUNT AND POST COUNT
When Frame Trigger or Burst mode is enabled, select the number of frames for the Pre Count and Post Count:
 Pre Count: The camera captures the frame cache from the time preceding the marker.
 Post Count: The camera captures the remaining frame cache after the marker.
The maximum frame counts are listed in the Available column, and are based on format and REDCODE.
MULTI-SHOT
NOTE: Multi-Shot mode is only available on an EPIC DRAGON or SCARLET DRAGON.
NOTE: The camera does not sync timecode in Multi-Shot mode.
NOTE: This mode is available in Motion mode, but is only recommended in Stills mode.
Multi-Shot mode removes restrictions on Recording Frame Rate and REDCODE, allowing you to shoot at a high
resolution, high frame rate, and low compression. These restrictions are removed because the camera records
first to the camera's memory, and then offloads (while recording) to SSD after the camera's buffer fills up. Since
the camera records only as fast as the buffer can transfer data, frames are dropped from the clip.
Multi-Shot mode has two sub-modes:
 Basic Multi-Shot mode
 Advanced Multi-Shot mode
BASIC MULTI-SHOT MODE
In Basic Multi-Shot mode, you can record a one-frame clip by pressing a Record key, or you can continuously
record frames by holding a Record key. This mode is the easiest way to shoot stills, but there is some latency
(about 700 milliseconds) when you press Record.
This mode only involves Record keys on the side SSD modules, REDMOTE, and DSMC Side Handle. Pressing
the PWR/REC key on the BRAIN initiates Advanced Multi-Shot mode.
To use Basic Multi-Shot mode, perform one of the following:
 Press a Record key to record a one-frame clip.
 Press and hold a Record key to start a new clip and continuously add frames to that clip. Release the Record
key to stop adding frames and end the clip.
