The monitor actually has a few more connection options, including DVI. I'm a little confused on what to use... I've read several posts where others have been told to use an HDMI to DVI converter over straight HDMI. 5DMKIII ll 35L ll 24-70L ll 70-200L II ll 2x TC ll 1.4x TC ll 580EXII

That's what I thought. I couldnt see the image being any better by having a DVI connection on the other end of an HDMI cable. I've been looking for a port replicator that has a DVI connection but that does not seem to exist. 5DMKIII ll 35L ll 24-70L ll 70-200L II ll 2x TC ll 1.4x TC ll 580EXII
