AV-out problem on Sony EX1
Hi! Got a problem with an EX1. There is no signal coming from the AV-out (composite). Ive tried my best with the menus but I've had no luck. Does anybody have any suggestions? Thank you in advance! :)

That may help confirm whether it's just an operator issue or camera issue. When Sony updated my EX1 firmware to 1.11 I had output problems too. It was a a bad firmware upgrade so I had to have them redo it. Tell us the menu settings in Video Set menu you have set and think should work and don't. |

Also be sure your monitor or whatever you are feeding is correctly terminated.

I was told by a Sony Rep that the EX-1 does not output SD (composite) when the camera is in HD mode.
He said this was fixed in the EX-3. Has anybody done this? I have tried to output to a 4:3 SD television for the client to see as a backstage monitor but there was no signal output. |

Did you set up the menu to have composite out from the AV out connector ? Go to MENU - VIDEO SET - YPbPr/SDI out select: HD => change to OFF The composite will display on your composite monitor ! Tim P.: What do you mean by "the EX-1 does not output SD (composite) when the camera is in HD mode." ? As above, I can get the composite SD out and Camera set at HQ 1080/60i. Also I can play from the sdhc card (which shot in full HD) on the EX1. |

EX1 printed manual page 103
Down Converter Set the output mode (aspect) for SD output from the A/V OUT, COMPONENT OUT, and SDI OUT connectors. ___________ HD mode? Camera is ONLY HD. Tuy has it correct. Quote:

I am shooting 720p60 and using the component output for a preview monitor.
The composite connector does not output any signal. I think this is the "HD Mode" - referring to the component connector outputting an HD signal. The composite and component connectors do not output signal at the same time with this setup. |
