Recording in 24P (23.98P) Mode
Recording frame sequence and clip length
See the following figure for the frame sequence.
In 24P (23.98P) mode, recording start and stop timing is 
adjusted so that a recorded sequence always begins with an 
“A-frame” and ends with a “D-frame”. As a result, the 
number of frames in a clip is always a multiple of 4.
Recording timecode
When you preset timecode manually, select a multiple of 4 
as the number of frames in the timecode, and adjust so that 
the preset timing begins with an “A-frame”.
The unit will then adjust so that the timecode at the start of 
recorded clips will have a number of frames that is a 
multiple of 4.
• The above adjustments are not carried out when you 
preset timecode remotely.
• No adjustments are made when you record external 
timecode. Therefore the number of frames in the
