DC OUT Connector and External REC Start/Stop Switch Connection

The DC OUT connector on the camera can output a 1.5 A current.

Connecting an external switch to this connector enables REC Start and Stop control.

An LED can be connected and used as a tally lamp, which is convenient when the camera is mounted on a crane during recording.
