    Viewing Images on a TV
    Using the supplied [AV cable], you can connect the camera to a TV to view images you have shot.
    CAUTION
    • In this section, [PowerShot SX200 IS] is used as an example to explain the operations. Depending on your model, the position of buttons, screen indications, and setting items may vary.
    • The location of the camera's terminal may differ according to the model.
    • When using [Stitch Assist] (for panoramic images), the images cannot be displayed on a TV screen.
    • Images will not display correctly if the camera's video output setting (NTSC/PAL) does not match the TV system. Press the <MENU> () button, and then select the [Set up] () tab > [Video System] to switch to the correct video output setting.

    1. Turn off the camera and the TV.


    2. Connect the [AV Cable] that is bundled with the camera to the camera's [A/V OUT] terminal.




    3. Plug the other ends of the [AV Cable] into the VIDEO IN and AUDIO IN jacks on the TV.



    Plug the yellow terminal of the [AV Cable] into the VIDEO IN jack on the TV.
    Plug the black terminal of the [AV Cable] into the AUDIO IN jack on the TV. If the TV has two AUDIO IN jacks (for right and left), plug the AV Cable to either one of them.


    4. Turn on the TV and switch it to video mode.


    5. Press the <playback> () button to turn on the camera.
