Connect to the input jack of the other device.

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.

When your TV is connected to a VCR

Connect your camcorder to the LINE IN input on the VCR. Set the input selector on the VCR to LINE.

To set the aspect ratio according to the connected TV (16:9/4:3)

Change the setting according to the screen size of the TV you will view pictures on.

Slide the POWER switch down to turn on the PLAY/EDIT lamp.

Touch [MENU] (STANDARD SET) [TV TYPE] [16:9] or [4:3] .

When you connect your camcorder to a TV compatible with the ID-1/ID-2 system, or via an S VIDEO jack, and play back the tape, set [TV TYPE] to [16:9]. The TV automatically switches the aspect ratio according to the playback picture.

Refer also to the manual supplied with your TV.

When you set [TV TYPE] to [4:3], or when the picture’s aspect ratio switches between 16:9 and 4:3, the image may jitter.

On some 4:3 TVs, the still image recorded in 4:3 aspect ratio may not appear in full screen. This is not a malfunction.
