Recording Indicators and Tally Lights - R5C Tip 26

Knowing when your camera is recording is important, whether you're the operator or the talent in front of it. And video cameras include multiple recording indicators: the R5C has at least 5 different ways it can incidate that it's recording. These are the tally light, card access led, on screen record indicator, the top LCD record indicator, and as of firmware 1.0.6.1 a large on screen tally light.

In this video, we'll look at each fo these recording indciators, and how to customize them to your needs.
