Does anybody know if all the information (zebra, fstop, voltage, focus asst) shows up on an ext lcd when attached to the hd100?

Unfortunately no. It's a feature I wish it did have because it would be helpful in situations where the camera is mounted remotely (e.g. on a jib or crane).

I would be interested to know exactly why people use the Panasonic HD monitor with the HD100? Won't the focus assist in ther camera LCD or viewfinder give a faster/better focus?

If you really want to see the detail of the picture, don't you need a much larger monitor?

I don't know the answers -- just asking.

You see the image, but no viewfinder information.

One point, though -- you WILL see the setup menus while they're active, but they're in a different font, which indicates a different character generator overlay is being used.

I need a monitor to flip the image for 35mm adaptor. I wish focus asst would show up on an ext monitor.
