3.7 TimeCode and SYNC
Timecode is one of the key features of cinema camera. The camera shows time
code in Live View and Playback state. Timecode is written into recorded clips.
For ProRes, the mov file contains a single timecode track.
The camera enables three types of timecodes:
 Free run: timecode runs all the time, no matter you are recording or
not. The timecode is embedded into recorded clips;
 Record run: timecode runs only when recording. We recommend to
set timecode to 00: 00: 00: 00 when a new project begins;
 External TC: the camera can use timecode from an external device like
Ambient NanoLockit as timecode of camera: using a special cable to
connect a timecode generator to the TC port, then set timecode
source as external in the menu.
To choose or reset the timecode, please follow the operation on the right.
3.7.1 TC port and TC cord
The TC port is 0B 5-pin push-pull socket. It is compatible with the ARRI
Alexa camera TC port for LTC IN and OUT.
Timecode generator based on Ambient timecode system, such as
NanoLockit, is also a 0B 5-pin socket. You can check the TC cord on the
Kinefinity official website or contact [email protected].
In addition, the camera can output timecode to other devices: connect the
TC input port of the device to the TC output port of the camera by a special
TC cord.
NOTICE When the camera is set to external timecode, the Jam TC input
mode is not supported.
