"What's the difference between NTSC and PAL for Canon digital camera? I discovered I can`t use Canon NTSC MTS files in Nigeria where the signals from Cable and TV stations is PAL. However my home theatre plays clearly in the TV."

PAL video is based on the 50 hertz AC frequency used in Europe and elsewhere.

NTSC is based on the 60 hertz AC frequency we is used in the US and a few other locations

There is a third standard, SECAM, used in parts of Asia if I remember correctly.

Tips: The original reason for the difference is related to the types of AC current adopted in different places. NTSC is 30 frames per second because it syncs to the 60 Hz used in North American AC power. There are 60 fields for NTSC video, one for each cycle of the AC power in North America. In Europe, the power cycles at 50 Hz, so PAL uses 25 fps. There are other differences like line count and sample rates in the digital space, but the original reason is AC power cycles that are used to sync the signal.

Your NTSC MTS camera would work anywhere, it would just not be compatible for playback onto a different format device like a PAL TV or VHS or even possibly a DVD recorder.
