I haven't found this answered or specifically mentioned in any of the Canon info... Will I be able to use the componant connections for SD output? Or will composite BNC be my only "live" output in SD?

Thanks.

Will I be able to use the component connections for SD output? Or will composite BNC be my only "live" output in SD?

Since the HX G1/AV1 are based on the XLH1 electronics, I checked the manual for the H1 (p100). SD 4:3 and 16:9 are available on component out (D terminal).
