d60 video connection

[greg b]

Has anybody tried to display images on tv from d60
itried on 3 different sets and got nothing. camera is set to ntsc.

I did when I first got the camera and then again when traveling. Works great. Make sure to change the channel to input-1 or Input-2 or the TV will not pick up the signal. I am of course presuming that the TV has the correct equipment to do this, but most TV's with the correct connection should have the input channels. (Usually below channel 2)

Also, I presume you are in US?

In any event, it works for me. NTSC on US TVs

The D60 can output NTSC or PAL (configurable using the menu) composite video (red, green, blue, plus horizontal sync and vertical sync). The NTSC composite video signal is NOT the antenna or cable RF connection, so “channel” selection is not applicable. Your TV set must be able to input direct composite video (usually a yellow RCA type of jack). Selection for this input is entirely dependent on your particular brand and model. Usually the naming norm is “Input 1” or “Input 2” for the direct video and “Cable or Antenna” for your cable and RF. But it can be anything the manufacturer wanted as there are no true standards for video naming. You can use a VCR that usually has a direct video input that can be connect to your TV via the RF antenna in those cases where your TV will not accept direct video inputs.
