Re: EX Tele and external monitor doesn't work
 

The manual, I believe spells out that it will only work in 24p, I could not get an image in 720p mode on the monitor, and neither could a handful of others here. I only found out by trying to use the monitor, as others have tried. I bought a Sony monitor and sold it a week later, after trying everything I knew to try to make it work.

So you are not shooting in 24P and your monitor works while recording? You are lucky indeed.
