Playback/Preview Monitor

Spiro Hernandez · November 8th, 2010, 09:03 PM

There is no way I can afford a $3K+ broadcast color monitor for playback/preview. And so, what is the best way to achieve color accuracy using a HDTV? Plasma? LCD? Does it matter? Will any ol' HDTV do the trick?

Plus I will need an interface card, right?

I edit with FCP v6.

Suggestions? Anyone?

Even if some of you can tell me about your current playback/preview monitor setup, I'd really appreciate it.

Thanks.
