Selecting Drop Frame or Non-Drop Frame
You can select between a drop frame (DF) or non-drop frame (NDF) time code, depending on how you
plan to use your recordings. However, when the frame rate is set to 23.98P, the time code is set to
non-drop frame (NDF) and cannot be changed.

code at the point where the recording starts.
