Playing Back on a TV Screen
You can connect the camcorder to a TV or VCR to play back your recordings on a TV
screen.
Make sure that “H” is not displayed on the screen. If “H” is displayed, change
the setting ( 39).
When you use the TV as a monitor during recording, keep the TV volume
turned down as long as the camcorder’s audio terminals are connected. An
unpleasant high-pitched squeal, called feedback, may be produced if sound
from the TV speakers is picked up by the microphone.
For high picture quality, we recommend using a TV with an S (S1) terminal.
TVs with S1-terminal or Video ID-1 system: Recordings made in the 16:9 mode
( 52) will be automatically played back in wide screen mode.

TVs with S (S1)-Video Input Terminal

Refer also to the TV or VCR instruction manual.

1. Turn off all devices before starting the connections.

2. Connect the S-150 S-video Cable (optional) to the S-video terminals.
