Pre Record
In this mode, the camera continually records up to 15 seconds in cache memory. When the trigger is pressed, the live signal is appended to the cached recording. This feature is useful for situations when you don't know when the action will start, and allows you to press record after the event has happened, and still capture it, without worrying about wasting recording time or overwriting your media cards.
Additional Features
- The Interruptable Foldback (IFB) Audio channel allows the control room to communicate with on-air talent or the camera operator via an ear piece. Communication is one way, with the control able to send messages but not receive them. IFB Audio is scheduled to be available around June 2016
