I'm getting a DSLR that has only a 1.8" LCD screen. I'm wondering...
Has anyone seen some sort of larger, auxilliary monitor that can be plugged into an A/V Out jack? This would be for scrutinizing the shots you've just taken, without having to plug the whole thing into your laptop?
Something like an auxilliary viewfinder/monitor for a video camera. (Could it be that simple?)

The AV out gives a composite video output, not really good for any kind of scrutinizing. It may be nice to show your gran the shots you just made on her TV, but that is about it.

Hey - thanks! ( My gran will appreciate me visiting her more!)
"Scrutinizing" wasn't the right word... Basically, I just want to check the lighting and makeup. The 1.8" built-in is better than nothing, but something a little bigger would be handy. I guess I'm looking for the equivalent of an electronic polaroid.
