Video Output Configuration

The video signal output from the HD/SD SDI (b only), HDMI OUT 
and HD/SD COMPONENT OUT terminals depends on the clip’s video 
configuration, the capability of the external monitor (for video output from 
the HDMI OUT terminal) and on various menu settings. Video output from 
the AV or VIDEO 2 terminal will always be in 480/60i standard.

Video Output Configuration by Terminal

Refer to the following table for the video output configuration from each 
terminal. If necessary, you can superimpose the onscreen displays on the 
video displayed on the external monitor (0 155).
