Recording in Full Auto Mode
Move the CAMERA switch to FULL AUTO to change the camcorder to
full auto mode. In full auto mode, the camcorder automatically sets the
iris, gain, shutter speed, and white balance. The camcorder will
continuously adjust the brightness and white balance automatically*. In
full auto mode, however, the autofocus will not be turned on.
* The light metering mode (0 59) will be set to [Standard], the AE level (0 59) will be
set to [±0] and the AGC limit (0 54) will be set to [Off/24 dB].
Locking Buttons
Moving the CAMERA switch to R will lock the following buttons: IRIS,
GAIN, SHUTTER, WB, S, AF/MF. Doing so will also lock the settings
of the corresponding functions. This is useful in preventing settings from
being changed due to inadvertently pressing one of the buttons.
About Clips
When the camcorder records a clip, it also assigns a 6-character clip
name consisting of a 2-letter prefix and 4 numerals (for example, “AA0001”). The numerals increase every
time a clip is recorded. You can set the initial clip name in advance using the [J Other Functions] [Clips]
[Title Prefix] and [Number Setting] settings. You cannot change the clip name after the clip is recorded.
The video file (stream) in a clip will be split approximately every 2 GB for clips with a long recording time. Even
in such case, playback will be continuous.
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 (0 39) 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 (0 99) and Using Metadata (0 82).
