• While recording, you cannot change the shooting frame rate.
• For lower shooting frame rates, it may take approximately 1 second to stop recording.
• Slow & fast recording mode will be deactivated if you change the video configuration.
• During this special recording mode, the time code's running mode (A 80) will be set to [Rec Run] or [Regen.]
and the time code advances by the number of frames recorded. If the time code's running mode is set to [Free
