Hey,
Im considering getting an Apple cinema HD 30' inch display especially since the price just dropped by $500 to around < $2K. Seems good considering when it was new it was around > 3K.
I am wondering if I could hook this monitor up to a HDV camera and use it as a production monitor or also as an HDTV. I asume it would work fine as and HDTV with a DVI to DVI cable from the digital cable box. And I asume if I wanted to hook a camera up to it I could get a DVI to composite cable adaptor for like 30 bucks.
So any know if they have tried this? I am concerned b/c the thing needs Dual Link DVI for it to work as a computer monitor so makes me wonder if will it except normal HDTV video from a regualr DVI cable - you know.
I dont know where to ask this question so I guess this might be the place where someone would know this...
