							About this Manual

Setting the Time CodeThe camcorder generates a time code signal and embeds it in your recordings. You can output the time code 
signal from the HDMI OUT terminal (A172). The time code will appear in  video output from the HDMI OUT 
terminal. For 59.94 Hz recordings, when using a frame rate other than 23.98P, you can also select between a 
drop frame and non-drop frame time code.
Selecting the Running ModeYou can select the running mode of the camcorder’s time code.
1 Open the time code [Mode] submenu.[¤TC/UB Setup] >
> [Time Code] > [Mode]2 Select the desired option and then press the joystick.• If you selected [Regen.], you do not need to perform the rest of this 
procedure. If you selected [Preset] and would like to set the time 
code’s initial value, see the following section Setting the Time Code’s 
Initial Value.
3 After you select [Preset], open the time code [Run] submenu.[¤TC/UB Setup] > [Time Code] > [Run]4 Select the desired option and then press the joystick.Options
Setting the Time Code’s Initial Value
If you set the time code mode to [Preset], you can set the initial value of 
the time code.
1 Open the time code [Setting] submenu.
[¤TC/UB Setup] > [Time Code] > [Setting] Operating modes:
[Preset]: The time code starts from an initial value you can select in 
advance. The default initial time code is 00:00:00.00. The time 
code’s running mode depends on the [Run] setting.
[Rec Run]: The time code runs only while recording so clips 
recorded consecutively on the same SD card will have 
continuous time codes.
[Free Run]: The time code starts  running the moment you press 
the joystick to select this option and keeps running 
regardless of the camcorder’s operation.
[Regen.]: The camcorder will read the selected SD card and the time code 
will continue from the last recorded time code on the SD card. 
The time code runs only while recording so clips recorded 
consecutively on the same SD card will have continuous time 
codes.

Grip Unit
The grip unit comes originally attached to the camcorder. If the grip unit is removed, use the joystick on the 
OLED panel to navigate the menus. You can also set the joystick's functions (up/down/left/right/SET) to 
assignable buttons (A107) to be able to change settings that require the joystick*.
