Playback on a TV Screen

Connect the camcorder to a TV to enjoy your recordings with family

and friends. Playback on an HDTV using one of the high-definition con-

nections will ensure the best playback quality.

1 Turn off the camcorder and the TV.

2 Connect the camcorder to the TV.

Refer to Connection Diagrams ( 121) and select the most

appropriate connection for your TV.

3 Turn on the connected TV.

On the TV, select as the video input the same terminal to which you

connected the camcorder. Refer to the instruction manual of the

connected TV.

4 Turn on the camcorder and set it to mode ( 49) or

mode ( 96).

Play back the movies or photos.

NOTES

• We recommend powering the camcorder using the compact power

adapter.

• Connection : When you play back your 16:9 movies on standard TV

sets with a 4:3 aspect ratio, the TV set will switch automatically to wide-

screen mode if it is compatible with the Video ID-1 system. Otherwise,

change the aspect ratio of the TV manually.

• To correctly play back movies recorded with x.v.Color ( 141) on an

HDTV compatible with this standard, additional settings may be

required on the connected HDTV. Refer to the TV’s instruction manual.
