    A standard HDMI cable? it's just the same output you would get from the back of the blu-ray player (I THINK!)
    I don't own a HD tv, but I suspect it's a standard cable you'd need.

    AFAIK it's a HDMI out port.

    Not sure, but you may need a mini hdmi to hdmi. There are a lot of HDMI cable options out there, so this is a good question.

    I doubt they'll include one. The $3k camera I bought didn't. Either way, you can get them pretty cheap on Amazon or maybe newegg.

    I think it will be a normal hdmi out port and not a mini. If you look at the pictures from the blog, it appears to be a normal hdmi port.

    There are four HDMI connector types. Type A and Type B are defined in the HDMI 1.0 specification, Type C is defined in the HDMI 1.3 specification, and Type D is defined in the HDMI 1.4 specification.
    Type A
    Nineteen pins, with bandwidth to support all SDTV, EDTV, and HDTV modes.[2] The plug (male) connector outside dimensions are 13.9 mm × 4.45 mm and the receptacle (female) connector inside dimensions are 14 mm × 4.55 mm.[46] Type A is electrically compatible with single-link DVI-D.[47]
    Type B
    This connector (21.2 mm × 4.45 mm) has 29 pins and can carry double the video bandwidth of Type A, for use with very high-resolution future displays such as WQUXGA (3840×2400).[47][48] Type B is electrically compatible with dual-link DVI-D, but has not yet been used in any products.[47][49]
    Type C
    A Mini connector defined in the HDMI 1.3 specification, it is intended for portable devices.[1][50][51] It is smaller than the Type A plug connector (10.42 mm × 2.42 mm) but has the same 19-pin configuration.[50][52] The differences are that all positive signals of the differential pairs are swapped with their corresponding shield, the DDC/CEC Ground is assigned to pin 13 instead of pin 17, the CEC is assigned to pin 14 instead of pin 13, and the reserved pin is 17 instead of pin 14.[53] The Type C Mini connector can be connected to a Type A connector using a Type A-to-Type C cable.[50][51]
    Type D
    A Micro connector defined in the HDMI 1.4 specification[51][54] keeps the standard 19 pins of Types A and C but shrinks the connector size to something resembling a micro-USB connector.[55] The Type D connector is 2.8 mm × 6.4 mm, whereas the Type C connector is 2.42 mm × 10.42 mm;[56] for comparison, a micro-USB connector is 2.94 mm × 7.8 mm.
    Type E
    Automotive Connection System defined in HDMI 1.4 specification.

    I'm guessing that it will be a 1.3b as it is the most widely used. There is no need for the adam to have hdmi 1.4 as it carries data and can be used for 3D signals.
