When the frame rate setting in [Main Menu]
B
[System] B [Record Set] B [Record Format] B
[Frame & Bit Rate] is “60p”, “60i”, or “30p”, the
actual number of frames per second is
approximately 59.94 (29.97). However, the time
code processing standard is “60p”, “60i”, or
“30p” frames. To make up for the frame number
discrepancy, the drop frame mode (Drop) drops
the 00 frame and 01 frame every minute except
for minutes that are multiples of 10. However, in
the case of “60p”, the 00, 01, 02 and 03 frame
are dropped.
0
The
non-drop
frame mode (Non Drop) does not
drop frames and ignores the discrepancy with
the actual time.
