TV remote control.

in conjunction with the camera. This feature may not be available on some
HDTVs.

The length of time after which the camera and an HDTV are connected may

of a memory card is to increase the transfer speed, it is not necessarily true
to say that a memory card with a faster transfer speed is also fast in using the
HDMI function.
