Question about Sony Dvcam DSR-PDX10 DV Digital Camcorder
When the camera is connected to the TV, playback on the TV is black and white. Playback on the camera LCD is normal and in color. I have tested the problem in the following ways: The television plays other programs and DVD's in normal color. The s-video and the RCA/yellow head video cable produce the same result. Different tapes, some previous some recent, all play black and white on the television, but in color on the LCD. The camera is functioning normally otherwise. I have had it three years and use it fairly constantly. Could this be about cleaning the heads? Please say it is.
Select the correct color system in your tv. probably the system which was selected in your tv did not match that of your video cam. good luck!

You were exactly right.
I couldn't believe it at first, but when I looked at the TV manual, I found that the color system control is a tiny button next to the RCA input. I must have hit it inadvertently. Thanks so much.
