following modes.
OFF: Do not output camera video signals during disc
playback (output playback signals on the
viewfinder and LCD monitor, and from all video
connectors).
HDSDI: Select this mode when you want to switch the
output from the HDSDI OUT connector between
camera video and disc playback video (the output
from the VIDEO OUT connector and on the
viewfinder and LCD monitor is fixed as the

Playback
Disc playback start position
Although this unit uses optical discs, it is designed to offer
the most convenient features of tape playback by VTRs.
One of these is the playback start position, which works in
the same way as with tape, as described below.
After playback stop
The unit stops at the position where the STOP button was
pressed.
Press the PLAY/PAUSE button to resume playback at the
stop position.
After recording
The unit stops at the position where recording ended.
To play back a clip, press the PREV button to move to the
start frame of any clip, or press the PREV button with the
PLAY/PAUSE button held down to move to any position.
After disc insertion
The unit stops at the position of the disc when it was most
recently ejected.
Press the PLAY/PAUSE button to resume playback at the
most recent position.
The playback position is saved to the disc when the disc is
ejected, which allows playback to start at that position
whenever it is loaded into any XDCAM player.
The playback position is not recorded to the disc if the disc
is set to REC INH.
Normal Playback
By pressing the PLAY/PAUSE button, you can review any
length of recording on the viewfinder screen in black and
white or in color on the LCD monitor. There are two other
ways to review the recording.
• Recording review: You can view the last two seconds of
the recording on the viewfinder screen in black and
white or in color on the LCD monitor.
• Using an external color video monitor: You can see the
recording in color on a color video monitor without the
need for any external adaptor.
You may also view the picture during a fast forward or fast
reverse search.
See “Side control panel (inside the protection cover)” on
page 20 for details about the switches and controls used to
select the audio output signal and to adjust the audio level.
