Synchronization With External Time Code Signals
— Gen-Lock
To edit and compile a recording that is shot using
multiple camcorders, it is necessary to synchronize the
video and time code of the various camcorders (by
gen-lock). Note
Synchronization with external time code signals (by
gen-lock) may be disallowed in some cases at
ClipLink shooting. For details, see step
4 on page 56
in Chapter 5 “ClipLink Shooting”

Using one camcorder as reference, to its video and
time code signals, lock the other camcorders’ video
and time code signals. If the reference camcorder is gen-locked to an external
reference signal, any other connected camcorders are
gen-locked to the same reference signal.
a) The output signal from the VIDEO OUT connector on the DSR-1/1P may discontinue
when switching the operation between recording and playback. Use the output signal
from the VIDEO OUT connector on the camera.
