Multiple Slots
The unit is equipped with 5 slots for P2 cards. Up to 5 cards
may be inserted in these slots for continuous recording.
They also provide new recording capabilities specific to
memory cards.
Hot-Swap recording
The Hot-Swap capability allows cards not in use to be
replaced without interrupting recording. This facilitates
continuous recording.
LOOP REC function
The unit can retain a certain amount of previously
recorded material by continuously loop-recording data into
a specified recording area.
INTERVAL REC/ONE SHOT REC function
The unit features interval recording at minimum one-frame
intervals. This function is particularly suited to shooting
science and nature programs. Frame-by-frame shooting is
simple with the one-shot recording function.
PRE RECORDING function
In standby status, the unit always stores video and sound
input to the camera for up to 8 seconds. This means that
the PRE RECORDING function, when turned on, records
the video and sound for a preceding duration preset by the
user. This feature recovers critical moments that you might
have missed.
Proxy recording (when AJ-YAX800G attached)
By installing the optional video encoder card (AJ-
YAX800G), MPEG4 format video and real-time metadata
such as time code data can be recorded simultaneously
on the P2 card and the SD memory card, together with the
video and sound recorded by the camera. This function is
useful for confirmation or editing of clips. For more
information about the approximate duration for proxy
recording on SD memory cards, see [Approximate Proxy
Recording Time (optional) on SD memory cards]
(page 11). Please also see <Cautions in using SD memory
cards> (page 22)
Data protection
Data on P2 cards will not be lost due to overwriting unless
the files are deleted or the cards are initialized.
Recordings are written only to free space.
HD format; AVC-Intra100/AVC-Intra50/
DVCPRO HD switchable
Recorded video is compressed through a component digital
recording method that uses a state-of-the-art compression
technology, and sound is recorded using the non-
compression PCM recording method, which excels in such
areas as S/N ratio, frequency bands, waveform properties
and reproducibility of fine areas. These methods further
enhance the quality of images and sound.
It is also possible to select DVCPRO HD in addition to
H.264/AVC-Intra Profile compression. The unit performs the
in-frame compression.
Note
When the clip is played back in the format not selected on
the menu, the picture may be disturbed until the format is
detected. This is not a failure.
4-channel Digital Audio Recording (all formats)
All formats except VFR native recording support 4-channel
digital audio recording.
Clip Thumbnailing
Automatic generation of thumbnails
The unit automatically generates a thumbnail for each
recording cut (clip). It is possible to make use of this on the
unit as well as for non-linear editing purposes, and after
uploading to a server.
Thumbnail display on the LCD monitor
The 3.5-inch color LCD side of the unit
can provide a
multi-screen view of 12 clip thumbnails. Alternatively, the
LCD can provide a view of 6 enlarged thumbnails. You can
choose a desired clip to playback instantly.
Seamless playback of selected clips
You can select more than one clip from the thumbnail view
for continuous playback and output of seamless video.
Note
During continuous playback of clips in different
recording formats, seamless playback is not available.
Display of clip information
By selecting clips, information added to clips, such as the
recording time, text memo, shot marks and metadata can
be checked.
