3-2-3 Recording Essence Marks
Various essence marks, such as shot marks, can be
recorded on tape. Recording essence marks for scenes
containing important images and sounds enables quick
access to the marked points. This increases editing
efficiency.
There are essence marks that are automatically recorded by
starting recording or firing the flash and those you can
manually record when necessary.
For good shot marks (shot mark 1 and shot mark 2) and
recording start mark among available essence marks, you
can select recording in the LTC-UBIT area and/or
recording in the system area as required to maintain
compatibility with conventional systems.
