monitor recommendation
August 29, 2007 12:08AM
I am using a sony 14" ntsc sd 4:3 only monitor. My question is: My next project will be shot with an XL2,24P/16:9 so I will need a Monitor switchable between 4:3 and 16:9. Can anyone recommend a decent 14" or so Monitor that can do this? Don't want to spend alot as I will hopefully be going HD soon.
Thanks!

you cant do all that in one monitor. matrox MXO is your best bet - though im not sure it does SD

Katz,
You said the project will be shot on the XL2 in HD but does it need to be edited and delivered in HD?

I have the Sony PVM 14M4U that is switchable to 16x9 it works good but as I continue to move in the HD direction I will be looking into LCD's. However, I am still a big fan of CRT's but LCD's and Plasmas are getting much better.

Do you have an HD card? You will need an AJA, Decklink, etc. to feed the monitor.
