Adding Marks to Clips in CAMERA Mode Adding Marks to Clips in CAMERA Mode In CAMERA mode, only when the main recording format is set to XF-AVC, you can add marks to primary clips to set them apart. While recording, you can add shot marks (!) to flag an important shot or frame. After recording a clip, you can add an OK mark ($) or check mark (%) to help you identify particular clips. You can add and delete marks also in MEDIA mode (A 140, 140). 111 Adding a Shot Mark while Recording To add a shot mark to a clip while recording, you must set an assignable button to [Add Shot Mark] in advance. When pre-recording is activated, you cannot add a shot mark before the REC button is pressed to start recording the clip. 1 Set an assignable button to [Add Shot Mark] (A 121). 2 While you are recording, press the assignable button at the beginning of the shot you wish to mark. • [Shot Mark] will appear briefly and the shot mark will be added to the current frame of the clip. NOTES • Up to 100 shot marks can be added to a single clip. • There may be up to a 0.5 second delay from when you press the button to when the camera adds the shot mark. • When a clip contains a shot mark, ! will appear next to the clip's thumbnail in the playback index screen. Adding an $ Mark or % Mark to the Last Clip Recorded After recording an important clip, you can add to it a mark to set it apart. $ marks can also be used to protect important clips, as clips with an $ mark cannot be deleted with the camera. To add an $ mark or % mark in CAMERA mode, you must set an assignable button to [Add $ Mark] or [Add % Mark] in advance. 1 Set an assignable button to [Add $ Mark] or [Add % Mark] (A 121). 2 After recording a clip, press the assignable button. • [$Mark] or [%Mark] will appear briefly and the selected clip mark will be added to the clip.
