  Panasonic output

  A tech question for you about the HVX200. Can you
  play back or output recorded video from the camera
  with a time code or number reference display to a
  monitor or a tape machine such as a VHS deck? Could
  you do this from the Firestore?

  The camera will output timecode, recorded time to a monitor as long as you are using either the firewire, or component output. If you are using a tape deck that accepts firewire in, it will send the timecode but your deck must be able to accept or jam to the timecode it is receiving. Usually only high end tape decks can do this. Other wise, the timecode recorded will be the one that the deck is creating. this means that the deck timecode will not match exactly to the original timecode.

  For monitoring purposes you dont have to worry about the timecode, cause it will simply display the timecode of the recorded footage. It will do this only thru the component out of the camera.

  The one problem that I have with this camera, which didnt bother me up until a couple of months ago was the inability of the camera to jam to/from an external device. But you cant have everything…

  if you are shooting on tape, can you burn a dub in the field (i.e. VHS with time code) of what you have shot?
