You can do the same thing with the PC/AV output. The cable came with your camera.
At the community college where I usually teach, the projectors are mounted on the ceiling. So I don't have direct access to the projector. Every instructors desk has a VCR, DVD player or an Elmo overhead projector. I almost always can use the inputs on those to get to the projector. For extreme cases I bought a double-ended adapter from Radio Shack. I can pull the cable from the DVD player and, using the adaptor, plug my AV cable directly to the other cable that feeds the projector. When you never know what classroom you will be teaching in, you need to be flexible. gs George Sinos -------------------- [email protected] www.georgesphotos.net plus.georgesinos.com On Sun, Apr 22, 2012 at 11:13 AM, Christine Nielsen <[email protected]> wrote: > I have a cable, approx 15 ft long, that has a mini hdmi connection at > one end (fits into k-5), and an hdmi connection at the other, which I > plug directly into an Optoma HD projector.
