NOTE: Recording From The Middle Of A Tape

Time Code

During recording, a time code is recorded on the tape. This code is to confirm the location of the recorded
scene on the tape during playback.
If recording starts from a blank portion, the time code begins counting from “00:00:00”
(minute:second:frame). If recording starts from the end of a previously recorded scene, the time code
continues from the last time code number.
To perform Random Assemble Editing (

pg. 43 – 48), time code is necessary. If during recording a blank

portion is left partway through the tape, the time code is interrupted. When recording is resumed, the time
code starts counting up again from “00:00:00”. This means the camcorder may record the same time
codes as those existing in a previously recorded scene. To prevent this, perform “Recording From The
Middle of A Tape” below in the following cases;
•When shooting again after playing back a

recorded tape.

•When power shuts off during shooting.
•When a tape is removed and re-inserted during

shooting.

•When shooting using a partially recorded tape.
•When shooting on a blank portion located

partway through the tape.

•When shooting again after shooting a scene

then opening/closing the cassette holder cover.

Recording From The Middle Of A Tape

1. Play back a tape to find the spot at which you want to start recording, then engage the Still Playback

mode (

pg. 29).

2. Set the Power Switch to “

” or “

” while pressing down the Lock Button located on the switch, then

start recording.

NOTES:

● The time code cannot be reset.

● During fast-forwarding and rewinding, the time code indication does not move smoothly.

● The time code is displayed only when “TIME CODE” is set to “ON” (

pg. 23, 30).
