Ordered the SGPRO REV3 & wondering if this Panny BT- LH80W will do image flip? at DVinfo.net

Hi Everyone,
I posted this in monitors, but as far as image flipping goes - figure the 35mm adapter house might even be a better place for this question...

so:

Today I just ordered the SGPRO REV3 image adapter - pretty excited! and Looking ahead at monitors that will serve double duty:
1. Focus assist in HD
2. Have Image Flip
... and wanted to know if anyone is familiar enough with this new Panny model - Panasonic BT-LH80W and will it assist me with image flipping

Thanks in advance,
Lonnie

I don't think it has image flip, but you can mount it upside-down.

Jon - yeah thought of that, but hate to spend 2k and then do an upside down thing...

Boyd - thanks for the heads up...

It is quite normal to flip the monitor upside down. In addtion a lot of us use cineform to have the footage captured with a 180 degree capture. So flipping the monitor upside is no big deal.

Easier and less risky than flipping a $20k Multiformat CRT.

If you really need a flip function.... buy a JVC HD250.
