    Hello…

    My work mainly consists of editing tv commercials/short movies/ commercial internet videos/

    I’m trying to set up a professional monitoring setup

    Just received the Blackmagic Multibridge Pro…
    Now it’s time to buy a decent external monitor…

    My eye caught the detail that the Multibridge has a HDMI output for HD monitoring,
    and the monitor of JVC (the DT-V24L1U) is HDMI compatible

    The DT-V24L1U is the little brother of the JVC DT-V24L1D except doesn’t have HDSDI support…
    (and therefore alot cheaper)

    Would this be a good setup for monitoring HD as well as SD
    Or do you need monitoring through HDSDI instead of HDMI

    Maybe someone can give me some feedback on this

    greetings Maurik

    It’s a decent monitor, however it falls off radically if you’re not looking straight at it… If that’s not a problem, it should work fine. Not seen SD on one, but figure it’s OK, or you could keep the SD monitor you’ve been working with.
