* For DCR-HC21E/HC22E:

A/V connecting cable (supplied)

A/V connecting cable with S VIDEO (optional)

When connecting to another device via the S VIDEO jack, by using the A/V connecting cable with an S VIDEO cable (optional), pictures can be reproduced more faithfully than with the supplied A/V cable connection.

Connect the white and red plugs (left/right audio) and S VIDEO plug (S VIDEO channel) of an A/V connecting cable (optional). In this case, the yellow (standard video) plug connection is not necessary.

S VIDEO connection only will not output audio.

i.LINK cable (optional)

Use an i.LINK cable to connect your camcorder to another device. The video and audio signals are transmitted digitally, producing high quality pictures.

Note that you cannot output the picture and sound separately.

For DCR-HC17E/HC19E:

The DV Interface of your camcorder is designed for output use only. Your camcorder does not accept input data from the connected device.
