NOTES
NOTES
• The frames value of the time code runs from 0 to 23 (frame rate set to 23.98P or 24.00P), from 0 to 24 (frame
rate set to 25.00P, 50.00i or 50.00P), or from 0 to 29 (all other frame rates).
• When you are using interval recording or frame recording, you cannot select the [Free Run] running mode.
Conversely, when you are using pre-recording mode, [Free Run] is set automatically and cannot be changed.
• When you mix drop frame and non-drop frame time codes, there might be a discontinuity in the time code at
the point where the recording starts.
• When you are using the [Free Run] running mode, the time code will continue running as long as the lithium
button battery has some charge left, even if you disconnect all other power sources.
• If you set an assignable button to [Time Code] (A 131), you can press the button to open the
[¢ Picture/Terminals Setup] > [Time Code] submenu.
