Why is it that when I connect my Canon Digital Camera to my TV it is black and white on the TV screen?

Q. One more question:
Why is it so that when video cameras record television or a PC screen then the screen (camera video) starts to flash all the time.
Why can't video camera record what's on TV or PC whithout flashing all the time?
Is there a way to get rid of these flashings?

A. Ok, first questions the black and white issue. What kind of connecter from Cam to TV? I've seen this problem with s-video broken or bent pins, and component cables plugged in wrong.

The flashing is something you might not be able to get rid of.

It has something to do with the frame rate of your camera, and the refresh rate of the TV. As two different rates cross each other, you see a flicker and lines moving up and down. On a PC monitor, you can go into the monitor settings by right clicking on your desktop and choose properties, then up top on the tabs choose settings. You can change the refresh rates to try and lessen this but it might not fix this.

You can do similar things on HDTVs like forcing it into 720p that might give you a faster frame rate over 1080p etc.


What's the best type of Digital Camera, with Video Recording??
Q. I was choosen to do a video recording for my cheerleading team, and I need a digital camera with sound...so what type of camera should i buy, and i dont want a camcorder, (unless its not big and bulky)..

What's the price? and Where can i get it from??

A. Most modern digital (still picture) cameras have video recording capabilities, including audio; depending on your requirements, many of them would satisfy you, but if you want a somewhat better-than-most video quality, go for a Canon.

And if you need a camera that _really_ excels at video recording, while still being essentially a camera, have a look at the Canon PowerShot TX1.


What's a good video camera to record YouTube videos with?
Q. If i'm mainly going to be recording myself, what's a good camera?

A. I have a FLIP camera. They are pretty inexpensive and very easy to work with. Plus, they can record up to 3 hours at a time if you want to record a wedding or something like that. And they are suuuuuuuuuuuper easy to hook up to you r computer and download from.
eCost.com has one similar to it right now for only 30$.... Might be worth looking at.
