Using HDMI connection for models with HDMI ports

Connecting a camcorder

Small camcorders commonly used at home are equipped with a mini HDMI port, allowing you to connect them to a TV.
This feature proves particularly useful when using the TV screen in place of the viewfinder during shooting or when viewing previously recorded images.
By connecting a camcorder with a mini HDMI port to an HD TV, you can enjoy the recordings on your TV in HD picture quality.

If your DSLR camera supports HD recording, you can also enjoy the recordings on your TV in HD picture quality.

Note
Since small-sized devices like camcorders and digital cameras are typically equipped with a mini HDMI port, a regular HDMI cable cannot be used for connectivity.
Instead, you will need an HDMI-to-mini HDMI cable to connect these devices to your TV.
