• Both LTC

recordings can be made, as can LTC
playback.
• The built-in time code generator is synchronized with an external
generator.
• A lithium battery is the back-up power supply for the time code
generator enabling the time code to be held for about 5 years without
charging the camcorder power supply.
• Optional long-life battery packs are available.
• Pressing the VTR START button on the camcorder or the VTR button
on the lens ensures recording continuity from the very next frame.
• By connecting the VA-DN1 Camcorder Interface Adaptor (not
supplied) to the 8-pin REMOTE connector, you can control some of
the VTR functions from a 9-pin remote control device.
(A CCA-86-0.4 conversion cable is needed for the connection.)
• The time code is displayed in the LCD window screen even when the
power is off. Automatic power shut-off function with five time code
indication settings.
• This board continuously stores a few seconds of the most recent picture
data. Recording is started with this data when the REC button is
pressed to prevent the loss of picture data (Loop Rec function) (when
the BKDW-703 is attached).
