Daniel Meier Posted July 7, 2020 Share Posted July 7, 2020 I am still pretty new to this camera. And I was wondering what the footage counter indicates. So I took a look in the manual. The lower left indicator shows, how much feet have advanced through the camera, right? So if I have a 100ft roll in the camera it should advance up to 100ft. I shot 24fps all the way so far. According to this photo, I already exposed 6ft of film, right? But then again, the frame counter indicates roughly 730 frames. Does this make sense? I put these figures through a calculator and it actually should read something around 18ft. Which makes more sense, because I filmed for about 30 seconds so far.

Jean-Louis Seguin Posted July 7, 2020 Share Posted July 7, 2020 Your footage is set for meters not feet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daniel Meier Posted July 7, 2020 Author Share Posted July 7, 2020 (edited) That makes perfect sense. Thank you Jean-Louis! Wouldn't have thought that they'd use the metric system. Edited July 7, 2020 by Daniel Meier Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Premium Member Simon Wyss Posted July 7, 2020 Premium Member Share Posted July 7, 2020 As Jean-Louis says, it’s set metric. The red half-moon disc can be twisted with a toothpick. It will reveal the feet scale and cover meters. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
