Dubbing playback pictures via AV cable

Videos that are played on this camera can be dubbed on media such as a disc, a hard disk or a videotape using a device such as a video recorder. This method is useful as it allows dubbing to be performed even with devices that are not compatible with high definition images. The picture quality will be reduced from high definition to standard definition. Audio will be monaural.
