Wow, I discovered this COW thread from 2005 which confirms the 2 frame lead on audio vs. video with the Varicam. Since the Varicam H included a menu fix (VTR menu) for sync and I’m experiencing the problem with the Ki Pro Mini, I assume this only applies to tape recording. The HDSDI out apparently cannot take advantage of this in-camera correction.
So AJA, there is a need to add a 2-frame audio offset (delay) for Varicam users to get our audio and video in sync.
