Re: [Digital BW] New Monitor

2004-02-25 by Mark Savoia

I use an Apple LCD panel (calibrated) at home and do some retouching on 
files there. Then I bring them to work and look at them on my Lacie 22 
CRT (calibrated) and it is amazing what you can not see on a LCD. Very 
small details get lost on the LCD. I also get files from customers all 
the time and it never fails that I can tell who is working on a LCD 
compared to a CRT by how much retouch work "shows" on the my CRT. The 
LCDs look very nice but I don't think they are portraying the real 
world yet. I assume that is why Sony and Barco use CRT technology for 
high end accurate monitors.
JMO,
Mark
