USING YOUR CAMCORDER ABROAD
Each country or region has its own electric and color systems.
Before using your camcorder abroad, check the following items.
Power sources
The AC adaptor provided lets you power, recharge, and use your camcorder in any country/
region that has AC power in the 100 V to 240 V, 50/60 Hz range. You may need a commercially
available AC plug adaptor depending on the design of local wall outlets.
Viewing videos recorded with HD (high definition) image quality on a TV
In countries/regions where 1080/60i is supported, you can view videos with the same HD (high
definition) image quality as that of the recorded images. You need an NTSC-system-based and
1080/60i compatible TV (or monitor) with an HDMI or Audio/Video cable connected.
Viewing videos recorded with SD (standard definition) image quality on a TV
To view images recorded in SD (standard definition) image resolution, you need an NTSC-
system-based TV with audio/video jacks and an Audio/Video cable connected.
On TV color systems
Your camcorder is an NTSC-system-based camcorder. If you want to view your recordings on
a TV or to copy them to an external device, it must be an NTSC-system-based TV or external
device and have the appropriate Audio/Video jacks. Otherwise, you may need to use a separate
video format transcoder (For example, an NTSC-PAL format converter).
