Recording Shot Marks
On this camcorder, two types of shot marks are
available in HD mode. You can record them at
user-specified positions to make it easier for
editors to cue up those positions.
You can record up to 127 shot marks per clip.
Note
Shot marks cannot be recorded in SD mode.
You can also use the THUMBNAIL menu to add and
delete shot marks in clips. For details, see "Adding
and Deleting Shot Marks (HD Mode Only)"
(page 93).
To record shot marks
Do one of the following.
• Turn on an assignable switch to which Shot
Mark 1 or Shot Mark 2 has been assigned (see

• If Lens RET has been assigned to the RET
button on the lens, operate as follows.
To record shot mark 1: Press the RET button
once.
To record shot mark 2: Press the RET button
twice in quick succession.
When a shot mark is recorded, a "Shot Mark 1" or
"Shot Mark 2" indication appears in the
viewfinder for about three seconds near the
timecode indication.
Setting OK Marks
To make it easier for editors to select good clips,
you can set OK marks in clips recorded in HD
mode.
Notes
• OK marks cannot be set in SD mode.
• OK marks cannot be set or deleted during recording or
playback.

and delete OK marks in previously recorded clips.

Starting to Record from Pre-
stored Video (Picture Cache
Function)
The camcorder is equipped with enough internal
memory to pre-store up to 15 seconds of video
and audio data in a picture cache. This allows you
to begin recording a specified number of seconds
in advance of the time when you press a recording
start button.
Selecting picture cache mode and setting
the picture cache time
Before recording in picture cache mode, you must
select picture cache mode and set the picture
cache time (the number of seconds of video and
audio data stored to memory) in the
OPERATION menu.
The picture cache time determines how far in
advance you can start recording, counting back in
seconds from the operation that starts recording.
Note that it may not be possible to start this far in
advance in the special cases explained in the
following notes.
Notes
• Storage of picture data to memory begins when you
select picture cache mode. Therefore, if you start
recording immediately after selecting picture cache
mode, the picture data from before the selection is not
recorded.
• No data is recorded to picture cache memory during
playback or recording review and display of
thumbnails. It is not possible to record picture data
from the time you were conducting playback or a
recording review.
To select picture cache mode and set the picture
cache time
Notes
• Picture cache recording is not possible in Frame Rec,
Interval Rec, and Slow & Quick Motion mode. The
camcorder exits Frame Rec, Interval Rec, or Slow &
Quick Motion mode whenever you select picture cache
mode. The camcorder exits picture cache mode
