3 Setting the Time Code The time code is a time reference recorded automatically to synchronize the video and audio during movie shooting. It is recorded at all times in the following units: hours, minutes, seconds, and frames. It is mainly used during movie editing. Set the time code with [Z2: Time code]. Count Up [Rec run] : The time code counts up only while you are shooting a movie. [Free run] : The time code counts up whether you are shooting or not. Start Time Setting You can set the time code's start time. [Manual input setting] : You can freely set the hour, minute, second, and frames. [Reset] : The time will be reset to the time set with [Manual input setting] and [Set to camera time]. It will be "00:00:00." or "00:00:00:" (p.272). [Set to camera time] : Sets hours, minutes, and seconds to match the camera's internal clock. "Frames" will be set to 00. Shooting still photos during movie shooting will cause a discrepancy between the actual time and time code. If [Free run] is set and you change the time, zone, or daylight saving time (p.37), the time code will be affected. The time code is not recorded for video snapshots. Regardless of the [Movie rec count] setting, the time code will always be recorded to the movie file. 270
