How so? It is still better than using a standard computer monitor (laptop). The fast forward and slow motion effects will also be much better using a NTSC monitor as well as some of the motion graphics.

again, the point is moot because Color doesn't support DV/Firewire preview.

In summary of my experience with my 17 inch Macbook Pro (matte) , MXO2 and AJA IOHD is this..
There is no way a macbook pro computer lcd display will give you an accurate color display for color correction. You need some kind of reliable external monitor calibrated to bars to do this,
Whether you grade in color, MB Looks, or any other software programs. The gamma and RGB spectrums are different than a NTSC, Broadcast monitor. Also you will see the difference between Progressive and Interlaced as far as motion artifacts are concerned. I love my MACBOOK Pro but i use it with the above IO devices and three live external monitors, HD- SDI, Component SD Downconverted and a average flat screen consumer LCD, thta way there's no guessing.
Cheers

I don't doubt that color will not make use of a DV converter. I am clarifying a comment made by another user.
