Macbook Pro Monitor

Hi Guys,

I'm currently using a Sony HDR FX1000, and i have a 15'' Macbook Pro.

I want to create a surf film to sell around Australia with progressive footage and possibly a bit of interlaced.

I have been informed by people on this forum that an external monitor would be of good use to me so i can see what the final product looks like, just wondering if anyone could advise me of a good monitor for my purpose.

Thanks heaps
