Connecting to an External Monitor or Recorder

When you connect the camera to an external device, be it a monitor (to monitor the recording or for playback) or

an external video recorder (for recording), use the terminal on the camera that matches the one you wish to use

on the external device. Then, check the video signal output configuration (

149).

Using the SDI OUT Terminals

The digital signal that is output from the SDI OUT terminals includes the video signal, audio signal (4 channels*),

time code, metadata and clip file name information**. You can connect an external video recorder to the

camera’s SDI OUT terminals to record RAW, 4K or 2K video.

For details about how to use and configure external recorders or displays, refer to the instruction manual of the
