NOTESNOTES
• If Long GOP compression was being used, the bit rate will change automatically to an option with Intra-frame
compression.
• You can use only one special recording mode at a time.
• The number of frames recorded cannot be changed while recording.
• Some frames at the point the recording was stopped may be recorded and added to the end of the clip.
• If the system frequency is changed, frame recording mode will be canceled and the [Recorded Frames] setting
will be reset to its default value.
• About the time code during frame recording mode:
- The time code mode can be set to [Regen.], or to [Preset] with [Rec Run] running mode. The time code
advances by the number of frames recorded every time.
- If the time code running mode was set to [Free Run] or the camera was synchronized to an external time
code signal, the time code running mode will be changed automatically to [Rec Run] when interval recording
is activated.
- When the special recording mode is deactivated, the time code running mode will return to its previous
setting.
- The time code signal will not be output from the TIME CODE terminal, REC OUT terminal, MON. terminal or
HDMI OUT terminal.
