Favorite editing monitor?

[evolvnyc]

Just polling opinions for the best, reasonably priced monitor that will display squeeze footage and is under $1,000? If one has a widescreen HD tv, is an NTSC monitor really necessary for editing?

Try a 20in mac monitor it will run you about $800. Thats if you are using apple ?

doesn't one want an ntsc monitor in addition to my mac monitor (already have) to see true color etc before outputting (LCD always lies) ?

(LCD always lies) ?

Computer monitors lie.

LCD Broadast/production monitors are being made. (Not saying the above-mentioned are such).

And then there's the Blackmagic DeckLink & HD Link, which I'm contemplating.

Now...where's that dang lottery ticket? :grin:
