    As in low cost…hoping 3k? Possibly up to 5k.

    I’ll use cheap portable TV’s if I have to.

    Anyone doing this?

    Losing my mind and my margins, especially on 3 camera edits.

    2 camera would be ok for a start, but 3 ideal.

    How (distance) long firewire?

    How long S-video?

    Thanks, I did not realize how easy it is to set this up now after seeing TRUCKS loaded with all kinds of old gear.

    I’d send an email to the manufacturer- both have a limit though both can also be run through repeaters.

    TV is called a medium, because it is neither rare, nor well done (He..he…)

    Awesome, thanks.

    You almost have to hire a full time researcher to choose your equipment if you’re on a budget these days! LOL

    So many choices.
