Barry Green Page 56 - Sync Time Code

Hi Gang

On page 56, you can see where its possible to Sync Time Code between TWO DVX100B's. Most of my live taping is done outside with 2 cameras; long days, cameras are turned on & off frequently. I, (as director), make the call as far as F Stop/Aperture matching, etc.

Barry Green points out; if the cameras are turned off, the 1394 cable will need to be re-connected so that the cameras can be re-synced. This type of shooting, WWII re-creations is challenging; rugged terrain, lots of movement, moving to different locations. I've never synced them before, always did it manually after capture.

Wonder if its worth the effort?

Thanx
Mike

In 2 words: probably not.
If you're moving that fast with a short crew/no crew, even a clapstick would be faster. Or, just do it manually using the audio waveform or your present method.
Hope this helps.
