How to Display Digital Photographs on a Plasma TV

Display photos directly on your plasma TV.

The large screen size and crisp picture of a plasma television makes it ideal for viewing digital photographs. If you have a digital library of photos you want to show off to family and friends, give the biggest impact by displaying them directly on your plasma television. There are a few different ways to set this up, depending on the type of camera and television you have.

Instructions

1. Find the "Video Out" port on your digital camera. This is a common feature on digital cameras, regardless of the make, model or available features.

2. Plug one end of a yellow video cable into the "Video Out" port on your camera. Plug the other into the "Video In" port on your TV.

3. Turn your television to the correct setting. Generally, this is the same setting you'd use when using a DVD player or VCR.

4. Use the controls on your camera to control which photos you show on the plasma TV screen. Depending on your camera's functionality, you may be able to create a slideshow of images and add special effects or music.

Tips & Warnings

• Check to see whether your plasma television has a digital memory card reader. Many newer models of TVs come with a specialized slot where users can insert the memory cards from their digital cameras. These slots are generally located on the back or side of the TV set.
