How to input user bits
By setting user bits, information such as memos (date, time) up to eight digits long (hexadecimal) can be recorded.

Select the main menu → [RECORDING SETUP] → [UB PRESET].
Set the user bits using the control stick.

Push it downward to decrease the value of the digit to be set by one.
Press the control stick, enter the values of user bits, and exit the user bits settings screen.

Frame rate information recorded on user bits
Saving the frame rate values for the image information shot/saved according to the frame rate set in the main menu → [SYSTEM MODE] to user bits allows you to use the editor (personal computer editing software).
Information is always saved in VITC UB.
In addition, selecting [FRAME RATE] in the main menu → [RECORDING SETUP] → [UBG MODE] saves the information in user bits (LTC UB) as well. The same value as in the frame rate information obtained from VITC UB playback is also output as LTC UB during playback of clips recorded in native format.
Frame rate information
The relationship between frame rates, image pull-down, and time codes/user bits is as follows.
