•The HDMI (High Definition Multimedia Interface) is an interface to send both video/ audio signals. Connecting HDMI OUT jack and external device with a cable supplies high quality images and digital audio.

•If you connect your camcorder to your TV using more than one type of cable to output images from a jack other than the i.LINK jack, the order of priority of the output signals is as follows: HDMI t component video t S VIDEO t audio/video.

•See page 95 for the details of i.LINK.
