Thanks. I suspected that, but haven't had time to do all the experiments
yet. Will be shooting a dance recital in a week, so will probably put
the recorder in 6 second cache mode, manual run, and just hit the
recorder's button when I want to shoot, along with the camera's red
button. But the Firestore will ensure that I catch the beginning of each
section. Hah!
