■ Selecting the Screen Aspect Ratio and Video

or PAL as the video output system. You can also specify an 
aspect ratio of 4:3 or 16:9.

IMPORTANT!
• Select the aspect ratio (4:3 or 16:9) that matches the type 
of TV you plan to use. You may also need to configure the 
aspect ratio setting on your TV as well. Incorrect aspect 
ratio settings on the camera and/or the TV can result in 
abnormal image display.
• Images will not display correctly unless the camera’s video 
signal output setting matches the video signal system of 
the TV or other video equipment.
• Images will not display correctly on a TV or video 
equipment that is not NTSC or PAL.
