Recording Video
• You can use [w Other Functions] > [Clips] > [Delete Last Clip] (A 153) to delete the last clip recorded.
However, you cannot delete the last clip if double slot recording is on.
• When you set the [w Other Functions] > [SDI Rec Command] setting to [On] and you connect the
camcorder to another device using the HD/SD SDI terminal, if you start or stop recording with the camcorder,
the other device will also start or stop recording.
Locking the Controls in Recording Mode
Once in mode, you can set the Q switch to C (key lock)
to lock all the physical controls (buttons and switches) on the
camcorder*, save for the START/STOP button. In such case, you can
use Wi-Fi Remote to operate the camcorder. This is useful in
preventing settings from being changed due to inadvertently pressing
one of the buttons. Return the Q switch to the CAMERA
position to reactivate the controls.
* The Wi-Fi Remote application also has a key lock function that is limited only to
the controls on the application’s screens (you will still be able to use the controls
on the camcorder). Press [
] to lock the application’s controls; press [C] to
reactivate them.
About Clips
When the camcorder records a clip, it also assigns a 6-character clip name consisting of a 2-character prefix
(letters or numerals) and 4 numerals (for example, “AA0001”). The last 4 numbers serve as a running counter
that increases every time a clip is recorded. You can set the initial clip name in advance using the [w Other
Functions] > [Clips] > [Title Prefix] and [Number Setting] settings. You cannot change the clip name after
the clip is recorded.
NOTES
• If you are recording with two CF cards and the CF card you are using becomes full while recording, the clip
will continue uninterrupted on the other CF card when relay recording (A 44) is activated. In such case,
the recording will be recorded as separate clips.
• If you record using the custom picture and metadata settings, those settings will be recorded with the clip.
For more details, refer to Custom Picture Settings (A 101) and Using Metadata (A 85).
• The video (stream) file in a clip will be split approximately every 2 GB for clips with a long recording time
(approximately every 1 GB during slow motion recording). Even in such case, playback will be continuous.
