g Timecode
Indicates the elapsed recording/playback time,
timecode, user bits or other information selected
by the DISPLAY switch (see page 23).
h Gain value
Indicates the gain value (in dB) of the video
amplifier, as set by the GAIN selector.
i Shutter speed
Indicates the shutter speed or the shutter mode.
However, if the SHUTTER selector (see page 17)
is set to OFF, nothing is displayed.
For details of the displayed shutter speed, see
“Setting the Electronic Shutter” on page 65.
j Operation/alarm message display area
For details, see “Operation/alarm messages” on
page 250.
k Audio level
Indicates the level of audio channel 1 and channel
2. The peak indication of the VDR level meter is
related as follows to the audio level.
The segment colors change from gray to white at
or above the AU REF LEVEL set on the AUDIO-
2 page of the MAINTENANCE menu. This
setting does not affect the relationship between
the number of lit segments and the audio levels.
The example in the above figure shows the colors
when AU REF LEVEL is set to –20 dB.
l Remaining disc capacity
Indicates the remaining recording time (in
minutes) of the disc.
Examples of remaining recording time indication
Note
During shooting in special modes such as Interval Rec or
Slow & Quick Motion, the indicated remaining disc time
may differ from the time which can be actually shot and
recorded. This is particularly true when FRAME RATE
is set to the maximum value in Slow & Quick Motion
shooting, in which case the actual remaining time is
about half of the indicated remaining disc time.
m Remaining clips display
Displays the remaining number of clips that can
be recorded. The display flashes once per second
when the number of remaining clips is less than
10.
n Iris setting/auto iris override
Indicates the F value (iris setting) of the lens.
Auto iris override is shown by an indicator made
up of two segments each on the upper and lower
sides.
For details, see “Changing the Reference Value for
Automatic Iris Adjustment” on page 69.
