To display recording/playback pictures on an
external monitor, select the output signal and use
an appropriate cable for the monitor to be
connected.
An output signal from the camcorder can be
recorded when a recording device is connected.
The same status information and menus can be
displayed on the external monitor as those on the
viewfinder screen.
According to the signal fed to the monitor, set
“Output Display”
in the Video menu to
“On.”
SDI OUT connector (BNC type)
Set the on/off setting of the output, and output
format in the Video menu

Use a commercially available 75-ohm coaxial
cable for connection.
Note
Be sure to ground between the camcorder and external
device before turning the power on. (We recommend to
turn on the camcorder and external device after
connecting a 75-ohm coaxial cable.)
When connecting an external device to the camcorder
while the camcorder is turned on, connect the external
device after connecting a 75-ohm coaxial cable to the
external device.
To start synchronized recording on an external
device
With SDI signal output selected, synchronized
recording is possible by feeding a REC trigger
signal to an external recording device connected
via the SDI OUT connector. To enable
synchronized recording, set “SDI Rec Control”
in the Recording menu to “On.”
Note
When a connected external device does not correspond
to a REC trigger signal, the device cannot be operated.
