In the record format menu, you can set to DV, and then the DV submenus allow you to switch between 16:9 and 4:3 - there are grey "pillarboxes" that appear on the edges of the screen, I'm guessing that you could then adjust the output settings for 4:3 as well.

Short answer is it appears the answer is yes.

You don't have to have the camera to have the manual.
Indeed, I believe manufacturers who don't make the manual
available online are missing the boat, big time.
