Re: Highend tools - lower end budget

[msacci] "Video capture card (also playback card) I have the Kona3, The lower end Kona card would be fine, you just lose HD upconvert, you also maybe fine with a Blackmagic card. This will get your video back on the Sony for SD monitoring. For the cheapest LCD HD monitoring I have the Decklink HD Link to take the HD SDI from the Kona card to a 23" ACD so I get a pixel for pixel image on that monitor. This step is probably not needed by you.

So all you really need is the video capture card and you have stepped up your game."


That's a HUGE part of the equation right there, which I've been saying for quite some time. You really don't want to use Color with the computer monitors, you really need some sort of external display via a video card to use the app well.
