Hello,

Tell me if I'm wrong, but I should be able to correctly monitor footage from my Canon XH A1 with this monitor?

Below are some of the characteristic.
The Canon doesn't have a HDMI output, so which output should I use on my cam to connect to the monitor and see a decent HDV image?
Also, do you have the feeling that monitor can be calibrated?
It should be a better option than using and HDlink from Blackmagic connected to a DELL monitor, don' you think?
Thanks

Composite: BNC (x1 Input, x1 Output)
Component/RGB: BNC (x1 Input, x1 Output)
S-Video: 4-Pin DIN (x1 Input, x1 Output)
External Sync: BNC (x1 Input, x1 Output)
HDMI: HDMI (x1 Input)

Larry,

What do you want/plan to use it for? I mean I know it's a monitor, but do you intend to use it in the field?
