• When you connect your camcorder to a TV
compatible with the ID-1/ID-2 system, set [TV
TYPE] to [16:9]. The TV switches to full mode
automatically. Refer also to the instruction
manuals supplied with your TV.
• When you set [TV TYPE] to [4:3], the image
quality may deteriorate. Also, when the
recorded image’s aspect ratio switches between
16:9 (wide) and 4:3, the image may jitter.
• On some 4:3 TVs, the still images recorded in
4:3 aspect ratio may not be displayed full
screen. This is not a malfunction.
• When you play back an image recorded in 16:9
(wide) aspect ratio on a 4:3 TV not compatible
with the 16:9 (wide) signal, set [TV TYPE] to
[4:3].
When your TV is monaural (When your
TV has only one audio input jack)
Connect the yellow plug of the A/V
connecting cable to the video input jack and
connect the white (left channel) or red
(right channel) plug to the audio input jack
of your TV or VCR. When you want to play
the sound in monaural mode, use a
connecting cable for that purpose.
