VIDEO OUT
• The video output signal from the camera can be NTSC or PAL. Your choice of
output will be governed by the type of machine (for example monitor or TV)
to which the camera is connected.
• Select the correct video standard.
What is NTSC and PAL?
Both are the TV's broadcast system. The NTSC system is mainly used in the U.S.A., Japan, Canada,
Mexico, the Philippines and Korea. The PAL system is used in the western Europe such as Germany,
England, Switzerland, Holland, Italy (except for France) and Australia, Singapore, Thailand and
China. As these systems have no compatibility, you cannot watch an NTSC system - based TV in an
area where a PAL system is used.This camera can switch the video output signal to both an NTSC sys-
tem and a PAL system so you can watch the images on TV not only in your own country, but around
the world.
