To record timecode that follows
sequentially upon the last recorded
timecode (Internal Regen)
You can record timecode so that it is continuous from one
clip to the next on the disc.
Set TC MODE on page P1 of the function menu to “INT”,
and TCG to “REGEN”. When this setting is in force, the
unit reads the timecode of the last frame of the last
recorded clip on the disc before starting to record, and
internally generates timecode that follows upon the
recorded timecode.
In this case, the setting of DF/NDF on page P1 of the
function menu is ignored. New timecode is recorded in the
drop-frame mode of the last recorded timecode on the disc.
Carrying Out Recording
One recording segment (from the start to the end of
recording) is called a “clip”.
See Chapter 4 “Scene Selection” for more information
about clips.
