This is a request to include a simple green screen matte monitor in the Live View. This is really needed when lighting greenscreen.

A light meter is not good enough because there is also spill on the foreground subjects. During a busy shoot, you might overlook some spill. Having the DSLR in hand would really be an ideal tool for a lighting person.

This should be achieveable as it is some simple arithmetic on a per-pixel basis. There is a need for the Key Colour to be entered in as a parameter though. The equation is here: http://casanico.com/ink-user-guide.html#sec-5

What is needed is a preview of the alpha (matte) with the shadows and highlights exaggerated. As described on my site here: http://casanico.com/ink-user-guide.html#sec-4-2-4
