Recording Movies and Photos

NOTES

• The START/STOP button on the handle unit has a lock lever to prevent accidental operation. Set the

lock lever to C in cases such as when you do not want a recording inadvertently paused or do not

plan to use this START/STOP button. Return the lever to its previous position to enable use of the

START/STOP button again.

• When you set the [FUNC.] > [MENU] > q > [Rec Command] setting to [i On] and you

use the HD/SD-SDI terminal (o only) or HDMI OUT terminal to connect the camcorder to a

device capable of receiving recording commands through a connection via the HD/SD-SDI terminal

(o only) or HDMI OUT terminal, if you start or stop recording with the camcorder, the

connected device will also start or stop recording. (When [Rec Command] is set to [i On], video

snapshot will not be available.)

• When the camcorder switches form recording on one memory card to another during relay

recording, the video will be recorded as two separate relay scenes. With the software Data Import

Utility, you can join relay scenes recorded on different memory cards as a single scene and save it

on a computer (A 110).

• For scenes with a long recording time, the video (stream) file in a scene will be split approximately

every 4 GB. Even in such case, playback will be continuous. With the software Data Import Utility,

you can join such split files into a single scene and save it on a computer (A 110).

• When recording in bright places, it may be difficult to use the LCD screen. In such cases, you can

adjust the brightness of the LCD screen with the [FUNC.] > [MENU] > q > [LCD Brightness]

setting. Alternatively, you can also use the viewfinder (A 20).

• Photos are recorded as JPG files. During and modes, the camcorder can take photos

while recording a movie or during record standby mode. For the approximate number of photos that

can be taken, refer to

Reference Tables

(A 152).

• Photos cannot be recorded during slow & fast motion recording mode or when [FUNC.] > [Image

Effects] > [Looks] is set to [Highlight Priority].

• You can capture a photo from a scene during playback (A 97).

• When you need to record for a long time with the camcorder set on a tripod, you can close the LCD

panel and use only the viewfinder in order to save power when using a battery pack (A 20).
