Connecting the Digital Video Camera to a TV or HDTV
The digital video camera has an AV/HD port to use your larger TV screen in place of the camera ‟s
LCD screen. On plugging the TV Cable (supplied) or the HDMI Cable (supplied) to the digital video
camera ‟s AV or HDMI slot and to the TV, the LCD screen turns blank.
Use the digital video camera normally to capture and playback photos and videos.
The images will appear on the TV instead of on the digital video
camera‟s LCD screen.
Note: The only limitation of using the TV screen is that the digital video camera is now not portable.
