Solution
You can connect your camera to a High-Definition TV set to display the image on the TV set while shooting movies.
To connect and shoot, follow these steps.
IMPORTANT
- Do not connect any other device's output to the camera's <HDMI OUT> terminal. Doing so may cause a malfunction.
- An HDMI cable (sold separately) is necessary to connect the camera to a High Definition TV set. The TV set must have an HDMI terminal as well.
- The camera does not have an audio/video OUT terminal. Therefore, the camera cannot be connected to a TV set with an analog AV cable.
- Before connecting or disconnecting the cable between the camera and TV set, turn off the camera and TV set.

While the camera is connected to a High Definition TV set and the image is displayed there, nothing is displayed on the camera's LCD monitor.

When connecting your camera to a TV set using a HDMI cable, keep the following points in mind.
- If you connect the camera to a TV set with an HDMI cable and shoot a movie at [1920x1080] or [1280x720], the movie being shot will be displayed in a small size on the TV set. The movie will still be recorded in the movie-recording size that was set.
- If you connect the camera to a TV set and shoot a movie, the TV set will not output any sound while shooting. However, the sound will be properly recorded.
