Notice Regarding HDMI Output
It may take some time for the output method to change.
When you use the HDMI output during recording, the image may be displayed with a time lag.
Beep sounds, AF beep, and electronic shutter sounds are muted during HDMI output.
When you check the image and audio from the TV connected to the camera, the microphone of the camera may pick up the sound from the speakers of the TV, producing an abnormal sound (audio feedback).
If this occurs, move the camera away from the TV or lower the volume on the TV.
Certain setting screens are not output via HDMI.
