Video Signal Output Standards
The standard of the video signal output from the HD/SD SDI (
only), COMPONENT OUT and
HDV/DV terminals depends on the standard used for recording (or the standard of the recording on the
tape being played back) and on various menu settings. Video output from the VIDEO OUT or
IN/OUT
(S-Video) terminal will always be in 480/60i standard.
Standard of Video Output while Recording
While recording in high definition, video output from the HD/SD SDI terminal will be an
uncompressed HD, YPbPr signal. You can down-convert the video output with the respective menu settings.
Standard of Video Output during Playback
When playing back a tape recorded in HDV standard, video output from the HD/SD SDI terminal will
be a signal modified from the HDV video. You can down-convert the video output with the respective menu
settings.
