Recording with the Clip Continuous
Rec Function
Normally, a clip is generated as an independent file every
time recording starts and stops. The Clip Continuous Rec
function allows you to continue recording to the same clip
until the function is turned off, regardless of how many
times recording starts and stops. This is convenient if you
want to avoid generating a large number of short clips, or
if you want to record without worrying about the limit on
the number of clips (maximum 300). A REC START
essence mark is recorded whenever recording starts, which
makes it easy to find the recording start points.
(How to select an item in the menu screen: Turn the
MENU knob to move the b mark to the desired item.)
1
Set CLIP CONT REC on the SPECIAL EFFECTS
page of the OPERATION menu to ON.
For details on menu operations, see “Basic Menu
Operations” (page 132).
2
Select CLIP CONT REC, and press the MENU knob.
3
Press the MENU knob.
The VDR operation indicator in the viewfinder
changes to “CONT”, and the Clip Continuous Rec
function is enabled.
The Clip Continuous Rec ON/OFF function can be
assigned to the ASSIGN 1/2/3/4 switches.
See “Assigning Functions to ASSIGN Switches” (page
143) for more information about the ASSIGN switches.

Viewing Camera Video during
Playback (Live & Play Function)
By carrying out the following procedure to enable this
function before starting playback, you can view camera
video (live video) during playback from the disc. This is a
convenient way to frame the next shot and adjust the
exposure and focus while viewing recorded video and
playback video.

used when the LIVE & PLAY function is on.
