Re: [Avid-L2] Re: does 5d Mk3 have reliable time code?

 



well, what i would like to know:
The Mk II has a horrible clock. It drifts based on use, or at least so it seems based on the file creation time in the THM files.
(faster / slower depending on temperature i presume).
Drifts of 4 seconds or more are not uncommon.
Is this the same with the TC in the MK III ?
 
(Of course this is not intersting for just logging, but for syncing sound based on TC where you only have one offset to calculate the rest it is!)

Confirmed.  I did a shoot with one a week ago which was pretty much run-n-gun.  Had the 5D set to TC Continuous run, as camera time. Making notes on the script of the time they rolled on each shot worked out well for us.

Yes the mk3 is the first version to have time code and it seems to behave ok.
