LTC input

Hello, I am demo-ing the 150 and tested the LTC input. Looks like the camera sniffs the incoming LTC and then freewheels from then on. Problem for me is, I need to sync with LTC from a Pro Tools session. If the recording engineer stops the session for a minute and then restarts while I let the camera run, everything after the session break will be off by a minute. If I stop recording when the session stops, I have to go through the menu structure to have it resniff the LTC when I start the new clip (that is a deal breaker as the camera is actually in another room). Anyone know of a way around this issue with this camera? Or, does anyone know of a camera in this price range that actually slaves to incoming LTC? thank you
 
The HMC150 doesn't slave to incoming timecode, its capability is limited to setting its own timecode preset to whatever's on the LTC.

I don't know if the Canon XF305 could do it, maybe? Or the XF105? The HPX370 could.
