Do I need something special to connect to HDMI? I am not seeing anything with this camera that's making this possible, even tho its a selling point

camera only comes with a USB/charger cable. A mini HDMI cable must be bought separately.

I bought that for a friend last year in another state, however, I never got any feedback in regards to that camera. I did buy a different camera for another friend - Panasonic Lumix DMC-TS25 16.1 MP Tough Digital Camera with 8x Intelligent Zoom. She told me that she loved it (and it did take great pics and videos). However, the only thing that was missing was a charger for the battery. I guess that had to be purchased separately.

This did not have a converter to HDMI. The converter that is with this adapts to many SD cards and to USB connections.

The HDMI port worked on mine. I don't think you are missing anything. try another HDMI cable

Yes, but am I able to do that with an hdmi cable? And so I ask again, does this have an hdmi output so that I can get hi def image on my tv when I hook this up? Yes or no?

I had the same problem, It only works with HDMI, theres no other way, I try it but it didn't work

No this works the other way around. Look for an HDMI - AV converter...(make sure it has DHCP support)

Nice to meet you. The mini port to HDMI actually worked well for me...I only use for my projector but it gets the job done well. No problems at all thus far. Hope this helps.

Wish I could be of help, but no luck here. Since HDMI has been available, I've made several attempts to multi-task with this technology, unsuccessfully. If I remember correctly, one of the reasons for the initial development was to put in place safeguards on content to prevent "pirating" hi-def, with the pressures of the movie studios and replaced component connections. Wish mine were a little heavier, then it'd make a good paper weight. But being no expert, it might seem that for less that 5 bucks, you might have better luck.

It sounds like you may have had the same issue I had. I took it to a camera shop and all this guy did was push a few buttons on the HDMI and waited then the image popped up. So the key is fiddle with it and wait I guess.

Can I modify the question a bit? Does the HDMI output a signal when the camera is NOT recording? In other words, can it function as a "studio camera"?

I have a few models of Sony - and most do not have either feature - I have one that has an external mic port next to the hdmi port - but no headphone jack and I think the next higher version of this camera. To get both you would need to jump up a couple of levels.

There is no HDMI, but there is a DVI port and they make DVI to HDMI converter cables; which I am using successfully.

This unit only has HDMI out - not even SPDIF or optical. Regardless of what cable accessories are available at Radio Shack or anywhere else, you absolutely cannot connect it to anything but an HDMI TV or A/V receiver. Even a DVI/HDMI cable would be useless because you would have no audio. Sorry to say but as time goes on, you will find it very difficult to purchase components for older TVs anywhere except from second hand shops or garage sales.
