    Cool, thank you. Glad I set up the topic!
    Ex Tele sounds great.
    Is that odd that I lose the ability to select 1080i or 720p for recording after I connect a monitor and it just automatically selects 1080i?

    ExTele is a feature it "doubles" your focal length, similar to digital zoom but not loosing quality,
    as it crops directly from sensor keeping resolution.

    HDMI it determines capability of your monitor or TV (or recorder)
    if you shoot 1080i but your TV is not FULL HD than output i converted to 720,
    it does not matter on your footage.

    And...! When I have a monitor connected to the HDMI port I lose the ability to select 1080i or 720p and it records 1080i. Saw there is a video out setting which I have set to auto and wonder if that determines the way it's recorded in the camera rather than just the way it's sent to the monitor.

    Also...what is ExTele? Is that enabling the HDMI port to use for external recording?

    Cool. Not just me then!
