vga monitor

[Park Edwards]

is it possible to use a standard vga computer monitor for the gh1? rca to vga? i dunno. i don't what to look for. and yes i know that you can't view after you hit record. just looking to use it for framing

I don't know if the HD Fury device works with the GH1. Barry Green has posted about it concerning using it with the 7D. A search on "fury" yields several posts, including:

There might be other solutions out there, too. Companies such as Gefen and possibly StarTech and others make devices which convert among various video signal types.

not quite what i'm looking for. i've seen the hd fury and that's to turn an digital signal into analog. since rca from the gh1 is analog, i figured it could easily be hooked up to a vga monitor. ah well.

There are composite-to-VGA converter boxes available. For example:

YMMV.
