Hang on - call me stupid if you like, but I would have thought that screen sync 
would be *much* more of a problem with a PC monitor, than a genuine BBC (or any 
old home computer for that matter) outputting a standard 50Hz scan rate! As 
long as the camera is using a 1/50 shutter speed it should work fine. Yes, they 
could set the PC monitor to 100Hz, which would work, but why make it more 
difficult than it needs to be? What am I missing here??
