About the Time Code Display
An icon may appear next to the time code depending on the operation. Refer to the following table.
NOTES
• When the frame rate is 23.98P or 24.00P, the frames value in the time code runs from 0 to 23. When the frame
rate is 25.00P, 50.00i or 50.00P, it runs from 0 to 24. For other frame rates, it runs from 0 to 29.
• In 4K and 2K modes or when using pre-recording mode in MXF mode, [Free Run] is set automatically and
cannot be changed. When you are using interval recording, frame recording or slow & fast motion recording
mode, you cannot select the [Free Run] running mode.
• 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.
• As long as the built-in rechargeable lithium battery is charged and you selected the [Free Run] running mode,
the time code continues to run even if you disconnect all other power sources. However, this is less accurate
than when the camera is on.
• If you set an assignable button to [Time Code] (A 111), you can press the button to open the [¤ TC/UB
Setup] > [Time Code] submenu.
