Television Playback: Connecting Your Camera to a Video Device
Using the EG-900 video cable provided with your camera, you can
connect the COOLPIX885 to a television or VCR. The video device will
show the same picture as is displayed in the camera monitor.
1 Connect the video cable to the camera
• Insert the black plug on the EG-900 into the camera’s interface connector.
2 Connect the video cable to the video device
• Connect the yellow plug to the video-in jack on the television or VCR.
3 Tune the television to the video channel
4 Turn the camera on
• The television will mirror the image in the camera monitor.
Use an AC Adapter
To prevent the display in the television from turning off whenever the camera
enters sleep mode, connect the camera to an EH-21 AC adapter/battery
charger (available separately). Note, however, that camera settings and picture
info will not be displayed on the television screen when the camera monitor is
off.
Choosing a Video Mode (p. 122)
The Video Mode item in the SETUP menu offers a choice of NTSC and PAL
standards for video output. Be sure that the standard selected matches that of
any video device to which you connect the camera.
PAL Video Mode (p. 122)
At a setting of PAL, the monitor will turn off when a video cable is connected. In
movie mode, however, the monitor will turn on and output to the video device
will be suspended.
