Free Run], the time code will start running from the selected time code Selecting Drop 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. When the frame rate set in [3 Recording Setup] > [1] > [4K Recording] or [HD Recording] is 23.98P, the time code is set to non-drop frame (NDF) and cannot be changed. [3 Recording Setup] [2] [DF/NDF] 1 Open the [DF/NDF] submenu. [3 Recording Setup] > [2] > [DF/NDF] [DF] 2 Select [DF] or [NDF] and then touch [X]. • The time code display will differ depending on the setting. When you select [DF], the time code will appear as [00:00:00.00]; when you select [NDF], it will appear as [00:00:00:00]. NOTES • The frames value of the time code runs from 0 to 23 (frame rate set in [3 Recording Setup] > [1] > [4K Recording] or [HD Recording] is 23.98P) or from 0 to 29 (all other frame rates). • However, when the video output from the HDMI OUT terminal is 59.94i/59.94P, even when the frame rate set in [3 Recording Setup] > [1] > [4K Recording] or [HD Recording] is 23.98P, the frames value of the time code output from the terminal will be 0 to 29. • When you are using slow & fast motion recording mode, 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 built-in rechargeable lithium battery is charged, even if you disconnect all other power sources. However, this is less accurate than when the camcorder is on. Table of Contents Menus Index
