Sparky,

The instruction is found in the User Manual page 57/58.

For convenience here it is:

Enter SYSTEM menu then the SETUP submenu.

Check the Pre-Record checkbox and select duration of 10 seconds or 30 seconds.To commence pre-record, press both the SHIFT key and the RECORD key. The camera will commence prerecord, indicated by the record
tally light and timecode changing to yellow.

(please note the SHIFT key is also the UNDO key - do not know why they call it SHIFT here)

To enter record mode press the RECORD key. This will be indicated by the record tally lightand timecode changing to red.

To terminate pre-record, press the RECORD key a second time.

Note: When using Pre-Record, the Edge Code wri tten to the digi tal magazine can become di scontinuous between clips, however Time code is unaffected.

Correct.

I like the illustration for the edge code.
