Displaying Images on a TV
Images in your camera can easily be displayed as a slideshow
on almost any television.
NOTE
You can also use the optional HP 8881 camera dock to
do this task. See
Appendix B: Camera Dock
on
page 129.

To connect the camera directly to a TV, you need an A/V
(Audio/Video) cable. The A/V cable is included in the
HP
8881 camera dock kit, or may be purchased separately
(see
Purchasing Camera Accessories
on page 126).
2
Your camera will send either an NTSC or PAL video signal
to a TV. The NTSC format is used primarily in North
America and Japan, while the PAL format is used primarily
in Europe. This setting is made for you when you set the
language of the camera. To check the current setting or
change the video signal format, go to the
TV Configuration
setting in the
Setup
menu. See
TV Configuration
on
page 89.
3
Your camera will be the source for the TV signal (just like a
VCR or a camcorder), so you must set the TV to take video
input from an external video source (your camera) instead
of the antenna or cable TV. Refer to the TV user’s manual for
directions on how to do this.
