Connecting to an External Monitor NOTES • When q > [Output Terminal] is set to [ HD/SD-SDI & HDMI], the signal output from the HDMI OUT terminal will be determined by the q > [HD/SD-SDI Output] setting. • The HDMI OUT terminal on the camcorder is for output only. Do not connect it to an HDMI output terminal on an external device, as this may damage the camcorder. • There will be no video output from the AV OUT terminal while an external monitor is connected to the HDMI OUT terminal. • Correct operation cannot be guaranteed when connecting the camcorder to DVI monitors. • Video may not be output correctly depending on the monitor. In such case, use another terminal. • If you selected an option other than [k Automatic] and the connected monitor is not compatible with the signal output from the camcorder, then HDMI output will stop. • By default, onscreen displays will be embedded in the output video signal. You can change this using the q > [Output Onscreen Displays] setting. 109 Using the AV OUT Terminal The AV OUT terminal outputs a down-converted analog video signal and audio signal for connection to monitors with a composite audio/video input. NOTES • When you play back a scene on a monitor with a 4:3 aspect ratio, the monitor will switch automatically to widescreen mode if it is compatible with the Video ID-1 system. • If you are connecting the camcorder to a standard definition monitor without widescreen mode, make sure to change the s > [TV Type] setting.
