VIEWING IMAGES ON A TELEVISION
It is possible to view camera images on your television. The camera has a video-out terminal which
can be used to connect the camera to a television using the supplied AV cable. The camera is com-
patible with the NTSC and PAL standards. The video-output setting can be checked and set in
sec-
tion 1
of the setup menu (p.
129
).
1. Turn off the television and the camera.
2. Insert the single plug of the AV cable into the camera’s AV-
out terminal.
3. Plug the other end of the AV cable into the video and audio
input terminal on the television. The yellow plug is for the
video output, and the white plug is for the monaural audio
output.
4. Turn the television on.
5. Change the television to the video channel.
6. Turn on the camera and set the mode switch to the playback
position. The camera’s monitors will not activate when the
camera is attached to a television. The playback-mode dis-
play will be visible on the television screen.
7. View images as described in the playback section. Use the
television controls to adjust the volume of the audio playback.
Because of the broadcast standard used to display television
images, image quality and resolution will appear lower than
when displayed on a computer monitor.
