Re: filmscanners: pc monitors
A good variety of responses.
I understand that Nokia brand name has been bought by Viewsonic.
As someone mentioned ,point of origin can make a huge difference to
quality.
I can not say Im 100 % happy with any of my monitors and we are running
Mitsubishi,iiyama,and CTX.
The Sony died a while ago.The 21" iiyama is our best monitor with the
most neutral colour whilst the Mitsubishi has a lot of controls and well
saturated colours,the CTX,s.were lower priced items but perform
suprisingly well straight from the box
I have to say that whilst monitor quality is desirable ,in reality it
makes no difference to your output .
Im presuming of course that you are able to balance the monitors colours
empirically with at least a known image or using the Photoshop settings
or similar.
The higher the resolution and refresh rate the better but don't let the
absence of high spec put you of buying a budget monitor.
If you are able to get a reliable colour rendition I recon that's the
most important feature.
