As all camcorders that I am aware of can do it without taking something out. All you need to do is connect AV output of the camera to the TV (if the TV has AV inputs). Usually the cables are color coded where yellow means video and red and whit is audio. Some camcorders require a special cable (normally provided with the camera) that has a mini jack (looks like the plug in most headphones) that has a 3 connection support and breakup to three cables (with RCA ends). In a few cameras you actually need to activate the output (usually a setting in the menu section). For the computer connection, it gets complicated and usually requires cables that you may not have. For that I recommend to have a friend that is computer/video savy as this is not a simple undertaking in some cases.<br><b>References : </b><br> The easiest thing is connecting the Camcorder to a TV.
