Advanced Operations Recording Shot Marks On this camcorder, two types of shot marks are available in HD mode. You can record them at user-specified positions to make it easier for editors to cue up those positions. You can record up to 127 shot marks per clip. Note Shot marks cannot be recorded in SD mode. You can also use the THUMBNAIL menu to add and delete shot marks in clips. For details, see "Adding and Deleting Shot Marks (HD Mode Only)" (page 90). To record shot marks Do one of the following. • Turn on an assignable switch to which Shot Mark 1 or Shot Mark 2 has been assigned (see page 131). • If Lens RET has been assigned to the RET button on the lens, operate as follows. To record shot mark 1: Press the RET button once. To record shot mark 2: Press the RET button twice in quick succession. When a shot mark is recorded, a "Shot Mark 1" or "Shot Mark 2" indication appears in the viewfinder for about three seconds near the timecode indication. Setting OK Marks To make it easier for editors to select good clips, you can set OK marks in clips recorded in HD mode. Notes • OK marks cannot be set in SD mode. • OK marks cannot be set or deleted during recording or playback. You can also use the THUMBNAIL menu to add and delete OK marks in previously recorded clips. For details, see "Adding and Deleting OK Marks (HD Mode Only)" (page 87). To set OK marks After recording of a clip ends, turn on the assignable switch to which the OK Mark function has been assigned (see page 131). If the OK Mark function has been assigned to the RET button on the lens, press RET button on the lens. An OK mark is set in the most recently recorded clip, and an "OK Mark" indication appears in the viewfinder for about three seconds near the timecode indication. To delete OK marks 1 If an OK mark has been set in the most recently recorded clip, turn on the assignable switch to which the OK Mark function has been assigned (see page 131). If the OK Mark function has been assigned to the RET button on the lens, press RET button on the lens. A confirmation message appears. 2 Turn the MENU knob to select [Execute], and then press the knob. The OK mark is deleted from the most recently recorded clip. Starting to Record from Prestored Video (Picture Cache Function) The camcorder is equipped with enough internal memory to pre-store up to 15 seconds of video and audio data in a picture cache. This allows you to begin recording a specified number of seconds in advance of the time when you press a recording start button. Selecting picture cache mode and setting the picture cache time Before recording in picture cache mode, you must select picture cache mode and set the picture cache time (the number of seconds of video and audio data stored to memory) in the OPERATION menu. The picture cache time determines how far in advance you can start recording, counting back in seconds from the operation that starts recording. Advanced Operations 73 Chapter 4 Shooting
