User bits are set by the user and they don’t change automatically.
You may use this information as you desire. For example tape #, take #, scene #, etc. There are 4 digits (01:02:03:04). The range for each digit is from 0 to 255 written in hex format (00…FF). A time code changes on each frame and it is a mechanism to identify each frame. |
Ah I see, so are we have to set it each time we start shooting?hmm.. I will try it in my camera..
thanx for the information Robert.. |
Fun with user bits:
DE AD BE EF and FE ED FA CE and C0 FF EE any others? |

User bits are helpful for identifying footage later in post... C1 for Camera One, C2 for Camera Two, etc.
