5 COMPONENT OUT jacks
Use to output component signals.
To connect a device equipped the component video
input connector, use COMPONENT OUT jacks on the
unit. If you use COMPONENT OUT jacks, you can
output high-quality video with less signal deterioration
in quality than S VIDEO jack.
You can set the output video format by using [HDMI/
CMPNT] of [VIDEO OUT] in [IN/OUT REC] menu.
When DISPLAY OUTPUT switch is set to ALL, text
data such as time code, menu, and alarm message are
superimposed on a monitor connected using
COMPONENT OUT jacks (page 25).
Notes
•When images are output in 720p format, some of the
text image data (outer frame: underscan portion) on
the monitor may appear cut out. In this case, check
the text image data on LCD monitor of the unit or on
a monitor using S VIDEO OUT jack or the VIDEO
OUT jack. Also, when your monitor has an underscan
function, you can check all the text data on the
monitor during underscan.
•When you change the video format setting of [HDMI/
CMPNT] of [VIDEO OUT] in [IN/OUT REC] menu,
the video signal output from S VIDEO jack, VIDEO
jack, or
HDV/DV jack may be distorted for a
moment.
•When you play back an HDV-formatted tape with
copyright protected signals or input HDV signals
with copyright protection to
HDV/DV jack, pictures
may be output in either 480i (NTSC) or 576i (PAL)
format, regardless of the setting of [HDMI/CMPNT]
of [VIDEO OUT] in [IN/OUT REC] menu.
•When you play back a tape in DVCAM/DV format
and while an EE picture in NTSC/PAL is displayed,
the 480i resolution or the 576i resolution is output,
regardless of the setting of [HDMI/CMPNT] of
[VIDEO OUT] in [IN/OUT REC] menu.
• The output level of COMPONENT OUT jacks is as
follows:
Output at 480i NTSC
With [BETACAM] selected in [IN/OUT REC] menu
Y: 1.0 Vp-p
(with 0.286 Vp-p sync negative,
output impedance 75 Ω (ohms), unbalanced)
Pb/Cb/B-Y, Pr/Cr/R-Y: 0.7 Vp-p
(output impedance 75 Ω (ohms), unbalanced)
(75% color bars with 7.5 IRE setup)
With [SMPTE] selected in [IN/OUT REC] menu
Y: 1.0 Vp-p
(with 0.3 Vp-p sync negative,
output impedance 75 Ω (ohms), unbalanced)
Pb/Cb/B-Y, Pr/Cr/R-Y: 0.7 Vp-p
(output impedance 75 Ω (ohms), unbalanced)
(100% color bars with no setup)
Output with other settings
Y: 1.0 Vp-p
(output impedance 75 Ω (ohms), unbalanced)
Pb/Cb/B-Y, Pr/Cr/R-Y: 0.7 Vp-p
(output impedance 75 Ω (ohms), unbalanced)
(100% color bars with no setup)
480i/480p:
Y: with 0.3 Vp-p sync negative
1080i/720p:
Y/Pb/Pr: with 0.6 Vp-p 3-level sync
