holding your finger on the camera monitor and removing it after about one
second.

• HDMI cable is not provided. Use a commercially available HDMI cable to connect the camera to a
high-definition TV. The output terminal on this camera is an HDMI mini connector (type C). When
purchasing an HDMI cable, be sure that the device end of the cable is an HDMI mini connector.
• An Image mode (A 62) setting of M 2048×1536 or higher and a Movie options (E 75)
setting of f HD 720p (1280×720) or higher are recommended for shooting pictures or
movies that will be played back on a TV via HDMI connection.

TV settings (E 91)
option in the setup menu
(A 88).
C Using a TV Remote Control (HDMI Device Control)
The remote control of an HDMI-CEC-compatible TV can be used to control playback.
It can be used instead of the camera’s touch panel to select pictures, start and pause movie
playback, scroll playback of pictures taken using easy panorama, and switch between full-screen
playback mode and 6-image thumbnail display.
• Set HDMI device control (E 91) of TV settings to On (default setting) in the camera’s setup
menu and then connect the camera and TV using an HDMI cable.
• Aim the remote control at the TV when operating it.
• Refer to the documentation included with the TV for information about the TV’s HDMI-CEC
compatibility.
