Yes, for mastering to tape the edited video from
the computer, for viewing directly the edited video
on TV from the computer, and for just playing tapes
from the camera to TV, connect the analogue cords to
the TV from the camera - and if needed, connect the
FireWire between the camera and computer to play what
is on the computer...
