With all of that said, and as you alluded to, and from what I've briefly read in the manual, I don't know if it's possible to see any counter continuously reset based on clip length. Now anyone else reading that might say, "Wait a minute." and rightfully so because that's not even how timecode works, but sometimes I try to simplify the communication process when helping others even though being a "stickler" is likely to be more beneficial for them in the future. So when I say, "Regardless, you basically want to find the setting that resets timecode to 0 for each new clip recording", I am saying you need to find an option in the menu - if it exists - that removes timecode and replaces it with a clip/track counter that resets itself each time you stop recording, so he or she can easily understand me. See, in some older camcorders, as I'm sure you know, you had the option of seeing the clip recording counter (or whatever they called it) or the official timecode, and not both at the same time. I have corrected what seems like hundreds of thousands, so I should be open to being corrected as well.īut FWIW, I didn't want to provide the OP a lesson on TC. I think you're right, and you are right - not only because of the technicality implications of my wording but also because it's important for the integrity of this forum. #SONY X70 RECORD TIME CALC MANUAL#Chris has already given the best advice above for changing the numbers back to zero or any number you want.It's right it just involves semantics which code of time one is referring to and how a manual is written and who you're speaking to.Īll mirrorless'/DSLRs by default operate by resetting the time each time you hit record and that's what he is interested in, and not the embedded timecode that may or may not exist that's used later in post. However, if the X70 is anything like the Z90 and NX80, it does not have the Duration Counter feature. The PXW-X70 features a 1.0 type Exmor R CMOS Sensor with a resolution of 20 megapixels. It is an excellent feature of Sony cameras and I use it all the time. The PXW-X70 is 4K ready and will be able to handle 4K recordings with a future upgrade. The underlying timecode that is recorded with each clip increments normally, but the control track counter shown in the viewfinder resets to 0:00 at the head of each new clip. I think what you are referring to is the Duration Counter function that is found on many Sony cameras. You wouldn't want the actual timecode value to start over again at 0:00 for every new clip, and I don't believe there is any camera that can do that.
