Sony EVI-HD1 - its not HDMI but includes component output which the Intensity Pro accepts OK (it was only the old "non-Pro" version which was HDMI only - I don't think its available any more). This camera also has an HD-SDI output which is ideal if you need longer cabling lengths (through ceilings, wall cavities etc). In that case you need the Blackmagic Decklink SDI board. We've tried both outputs from this camera and they work great. chris Christoph Willing +61 7 3365 8316 QCIF Access Grid Manager University of Queensland
