REC PLAY

Important!

•The camera can be connected only to a TV that is equipped with a VIDEO IN terminal.

•Make sure that the power of both the camera and the TV are turned off when making connections.

•The signal output through this camera's VIDEO OUT terminal is an NTSC signal. An image output through this terminal will not look normal if the camera is connected to a PAL or other type of TV or video deck.

•Leaving the same image displayed on a TV or computer CRT screen for very long periods can cause that image to “burn in”, leav- ing a ghost of the image even after the original image is cleared. Be sure not to leave an image on a TV or CRT screen for long periods.
