TIME CODE ADAPTER "TCA-1" The "TCA-1" is a high-precision timecode adapter that boasts the same accuracy as ZOOM's professional field recorders, the "F series." By sharing a common time axis (time clock) between ZOOM recorders and cameras, it can always keep audio and video perfectly synchronized without any discrepancies. It adopts a temperature-compensated crystal oscillator (TCXO), ensuring overwhelming accuracy of less than 0.5 frames error within 24 hours, unaffected by ambient temperature changes. TIME CODE ADAPTER "TCA-1" Equipped with a 3.5mm TRS phone (stereo mini) timecode input/output terminal, it can receive timecode signals from professional cameras and, conversely, send them to compact cameras or mirrorless single-lens reflex cameras. This allows for instant synchronization of video shot with multiple cameras and audio from ZOOM recorders, significantly streamlining the editing workflow in post-production. It can be used immediately by simply connecting it to the REMOTE terminal of compatible ZOOM recorders.
