Does anybody know how to attach (or if you can attach) an lcd screen to the Sony Handycam HDR SR11?

Just wondering if anybody has tried this. If you know for sure, please tell me what type of cables you used an where the wire would go. Thanks

An "LCD screen"... like an external monitor?

Sure.

I presume you want to monitor on that screen what the camera sees while the camcorder is recording. It depends which monitor you are using - that is, what connections the monitor has. Mostly, the AV/Composite analog video cable would be used.

That AV cable came in the box with the camcorder when the camcorder was new. one side plugs into the camcorder's AVport, the other side will have three RCA male connectors.. Yellow (video), Red (right audio), White (left audio). These plug into the monitor's AV-input.

Check the camcorder's manual - You *might* have to change a menu item in the camcorder... with the camcorder in Record mode, select "Standard Set", then scroll to "Disp Output" and select "V-Out/Panel".

I do this all the time when my camcorder is on the end of a camera crane and it is too far away to see the camcorder's LCD panel.

Canon HG10 Camcorder Review

The Canon HG10 camcorder is designed to be compatible with the AVCHD codec. It is based on the Canon HV20 but its design deviates substantially from the older model. The HG10 is much lighter than the HV20 and it has a slightly lower weight than its primary competitor, the Sony Handycam HDR-SR7.

The HG10 camcorder has a taller body than the SR7 and is therefore more comfortable to hold. However, the SR7 has a more fashionable and stylish appearance than the HG10. To achieve a thinner body, Canon relocated and changed the shapes of many of the controls. Some changes were for the better such as the eye-level viewfinder that is extendable and the rocker switch for zooming. However, the directional switch with concentric scroll wheel is a bit difficult to use. While it is better than utilizing a touch screen, manual focus and navigation are more difficult because there is a tendency to also move the scroll wheel when using the switch. Moreover, you will have to shoot by utilizing the LCD display more often.

The HG10 has a three-megapixel CMOS chip that captures images as 1,920 by 1,080 HD video that is interlaced and downconverted into the 1,440 by 1,080 resolution for AVCHD. It is provided with a 40-gigabyte hard drive that can contain from 15 hours of video at 5 Mbps to as low as 5.5 hours of video for 15 Mbps. Three-megapixel still photos are possible while the camcorder is in photo mode. Video grabs are also possible at the resolution of 1,920 by 1,080 while the device is in movie mode. It should be noted here that the photographs can only be saved on a MiniSD card and not on the hard drive.

The HG10 is capable of taking sharp photos and videos that are saturated and well-exposed. However, the microphone has no zoom capability and it has poor pickup of sounds.
