I just ordered an external monitor from manhattan and I need a cord to plug into my gh2. Is it the "mini hdmi" to "regular hdmi" cord that I need?

Also, I have read on this thread http://www.dvinfo.net/forum/panasonic-lumix-gf-gh-series/501166-left-angle-mini-hdmi-gh2.html

That the cord comes out easily and a better set up is needed, so I was wondering the best solution to have my gh2 set up with my external monitor above it? Anything I should be aware of? thanks.
 
I don't have a Manhattan, but I do have a Lilliput ext monitor and that takes the mini HDMI to regular HDMI cable. So as far as what you need on the GH2 side, it is mini HDMI. I would assume the Manhattan takes a regular HDMI cable. I haven't had a problem with my cord coming out, but it does make the port cover easy to catch on things.
The cable I use was just a cheap cable from Amazon http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B005DNLO54/ref=oh_details_o06_s00_i00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 works fine for me. I am sure that others here will recommend a better cable, but for my uses this works great.
