OK It went in one ear and surprisingly didnt come out the other. I will do as suggested and get dirty. I did receive the book today. I still need to get from HDMI camera out to SD monitor in. I will look into the Decimator or see if there are other down converters. Thanks for the logical suggestions. MIke

Hi Evrim Thanks for the welcome. I imagine the first posts from most of the new folks are kinda silly or full of type o's like by instead of buy. Sorry I would like to use my current stock equipment but from what I've read my Nikon D800 (digital signal) and the stock Steadicam monitor(analog) are not compatible without a downconverter as you mentioned. I dont think I want to spend 450 or so dollars to stay in the past (analog). When I could spend $1000.00 and get a decent HDMI/daylight OK monitor. I dont think I can use the existing Pilot wiring to run HDMI thru the post. Am I on the right track or totally misunderstand? Thanks MIke

Hi All I purchased a Pilot back in Feb. this year. I havent used it yet. I finally got a Nikon D800 that I would like to use with it. The monitor is not the new HD sled. Steadicams price for a new style sled is over $4000.00. No upgrade path except to sell my current one and by the new one. I would like to by a new HD monitor and use something like the Paralinx Arrow wireless device as opposed to running new HDMI cables. I cant find any posts or info on anyone using this setup. Seems like it would be simple but I am as green as they come with anything Steadicam. Thanks for any help Mike
