XL-1 print timecode on video?	Can't Post

Is it possible to print the time code on the image on the tape? I noticed that there's an option on the hand-held remote (which I can't find!) that allows the time/date and "camera data" to record on the tape, but NOT the time code. Is this possible? And can it be done without the remote? Thanks!

: Is it possible to print the time code on the image on the tape?

You can print the time code - it appears in the image on the analog video output. The On Screen button of the remote toggles this on/off, both for camera (record) and VCR (playback) modes. You do need to use the remote to activate this with the XL1.
