There is an anomaly here. The instruction manual, page 9, says that for Line Output you should use socket (26), the one nearest the front of the machine, which is a 5 pin socket. This IS the correct socket.
The Specification, page 27, says to use pins 2 & 3. However, the Schematic on page 25 shows this socket as a 3 pin socket with Line Out connected to pins 1 (Ground) and 3.
I suggest that you adopt the following procedure. Use the CENTRAL pin as the GROUND of your output (this is standard) and then try each of the other pins in turn as the "live" signal. One of them will work. Line Out is only available on Playback, not on Record.

Daryl, The line-out socket (which is the one neaest the front of the projector)has 5 pins. It's what's known as a 5-pin DIN socket; the "DIN" designation is a European one which was never accepted as a manufacturing standard on your side of the pond. If you have not already got one, the matching plug is, I believe, available from Radio Shack. Now, the center pin is "signal Ground". On of the other four pins will be the one you require as the "signal OUT". So to obtain your "line-out" signal the center pin will be the one that connects to the "input ground" of your camera, and you will have to find by trial and error which of the other four is the one you want. If you are not sure what you are doing, you would be advised to contact a local audio or electronics hobbyist. There is a strong possibility that the projector "line-out" signal may be too high for your camera input (it wouldn't physically do damage!) and that aspect would then need to be addressed. Martin
