Notes on transferring multiple still images together
Transferring all of the still image files within frame memory together fails if
the capacity of the memory card is too small to hold all of the images. In this
case, replace with a larger capacity memory card, or delete still images until
saving is possible.
The following table roughly shows the relation between memory card
capacity and number of images that can be saved.
a) For all available signal formats except 720P
Note that when transferring to the hard disk, there is ample capacity, so that
problems such as this do not occur.
If you cancel the operation during a data transfer between frame memory and
hard disk or memory card, then an image which was not completely
transferred will not be reproducible. Avoid canceling such operations.
When loading a still image file from hard disk or memory card, if [Freeze
Enable] in the Freeze menu is on, the loaded still image file may sometimes
be overwritten by the frame memory input image.
To avoid this when loading a file, ensure that [Freeze Enable] is turned off.
Notes on saving or recalling a frame memory still image for or by
a snapshot/keyframe
The saving and recalling of frame memory images for snapshots and
keyframes is restricted to the still images or clips on the eight frame memory
outputs. The settings made for frame memory images in the Freeze menu,
Composite menu or other menus do not apply to snapshots or keyframes.
To reproduce a frame memory still image or a clip of them by recalling a
snapshot or keyframe, you must have the same images that were present in
the frame memory when you saved the snapshot or keyframe. Therefore,
when saving a snapshot or keyframe using frame memory, you must also
save the images to a storage media such as the hard disk.
Note on transferring ancillary data
Ancillary data is recorded when the frame memory saving mode is set to “save
with ancillary data,” and can be saved to an external storage device such as a
hard disk or memory card, and recalled. However, the ancillary data can only
be saved or recalled when the frame memory saving mode is set to “save with
ancillary data,” and when ancillary data is present in the saved or recalled
frame memory file, and moreover when the system signal format is the same
as the signal format in the file.
