Query: Great Design, Poor Resolution

I purchased the VariZoom Ultimate Kit expecting to be able to use it with my SONY HDV camera. I think that the case and all of the parts are built very well, and very solid. There is no problem with the design of the product. It was easy to set up, and it works. The problem is that the resolution is very poor. The resolution is so poor that you cannot really tell if you are in focus, so you still have to use the viewfinder for focus, which defeats the purpose of having a 7" LCD on the top of the camera.If you need a 7" battery operated LCD for setting up a video capture station in the field, or if you simply need to check framing, then I think it will be fine. But I would not plan to replace your viewfinder with this product. For the same money you can purchase a 20" HDTV to use as a field monitor.
