# Native recording

This recording method extracts and records valid frames at the shooting frame rates in 1080P and 720P native recording (24PN, 25PN, 30PN).

With native recording, you can record longer than the normal recording time.

Even in native recording, the rate for outputting camera images and playback images is 59.94 frames or 50 frames that are pulled down.

Valid frames

NOTE

- Recording starts from the beginning of a 4-frame cycle for 24PN (native recording) and 2-frame cycle for 30PN (native recording). Therefore, the time code may become non-continuous when clips are recorded continuously in system modes with different recording cycles.

- The recording cannot be started immediately after inserting the P2 card or the power is turned on during the native recording. Start recording after the P2 card is recognized.

  Push the <MARKER SEL>/<MODE CHECK/MENU CANCEL> switch three times towards the <MCK/MCL> side and check the P2 card status on the [SLOT1] and [SLOT2] (or, [SLOT3] and [SLOT4]) rows displayed on the viewfinder screen.
