can I use a computer monitor as a camera monitor

lynnhks · May 25, 2015

I have a hd video camera with hdmi outs, and I want to use a hdmi computer monitor directly in instead of having to buy a camera monitor (they are really expensive, small, and not very good resolution for the price). I am not going to use a tower at all...The camera has a hard drive. Will this work? not sure

If the camera has an HDMI out, and the monitor has an HDMI in, then it should work fine. Camera monitors are just meant for durability and portability hence the price.

Thanks alot for your quick response...Couldn't find an answer anywhere...TY again, I am getting a monitor for this soon, if I have any issues, I know who to ask. This is a great site.

You do realize that the PC monitor you will use will require AC power, don't you?

Alabalcho :

of course, as would a camera monitor...that or battery.

It is sure it can work, no need to buy another one. Your camera is fitted for this. Just to depend on durability or compatibility is fine for this.
