If your TV has an SD memory card slot,
you can view still pictures by inserting a card directly.
• Use SDHC-compatible TVs to playback images on SDHC memory cards.
Do not use any other AV cables except the supplied one.
You can view pictures on TVs in other countries (regions) which use the NTSC or PAL
system when you set ‘VIDEO OUT’ in SETUP menu.
Even if you set ‘VIDEO OUT’ to ‘PAL’, the output signal will still be NTSC in the
recording mode.
When connected with AV cable, pictures will not be displayed on TV during recording of
motion pictures in ‘30fps 16:9H’ or ‘15fps 16:9H’, or during recording in ‘BURST’ or
‘HI-SPEED BURST’ scene mode. (DMC-TZ5 only)
‘LCD MODE’ setting is not reflected on TV.
Some televisions may cut off the edges of pictures, or not display them full screen.
Pictures rotated to portrait may be blurred slightly.
Change picture mode settings on TV if aspect ratios are not displayed correctly on
widescreen or high-definition televisions.
If problems such as picture flickering occur, set ‘VIDEO OUT’ (P.26) to ‘NTSC’.
Playback cannot be performed in clipboard mode.
Blank stripes may appear at the sides or at the top and bottom of the screen, depending
on aspect ratio setting.
Images displayed vertically may be slightly blurred.
Pictures cannot be simultaneously displayed on the LCD monitor.
We recommend recording still pictures with ‘PICTURE SIZE’ of at least 2M, and motion
pictures with ‘PICTURE MODE’ set to ‘16:9H’ (DMC-TZ5 only).
Do not use cables other than that specified here (sold separately, DMW-HDC2).
Output will be in 16:9 aspect ratio, regardless of ‘TV ASPECT’ setting.
Component output will be canceled if a USB connection cable is connected.
No picture output will occur through AV cables connected simultaneously.
