First, an aplogy as I know this question has been discussed previously. Searching the archieves, however, did not turn anything up. Can anyone recommend a flat screen monitor that would be statisfactory for working with images -- i.e., using Photoshop. I live in a very small house and a flat screen would really free up some space. Thanks, Steve

The assumption here would be that you're talking about LCDs vx. flat screen CRTs. Probably the best way to start is to determine your budget. Then, folks on here who are using LCDs in your price range can give some feedback. Otherwise, it just turns into a general discussion.

High end CRT monitors may have a bit of an edge in absolute accuracy in rendering color but considering that one can never achieve an absolute match between screen and print that may be a tilting at windmills argument. For B&W LCDs function as well as anything in my limited experience. All monitors, CRT or LCD, need to be tweaked with a profiling system if you are going to get the best image possible. Considering footprint, weight, heat generation etc I would choose LCD over CRT any day and not look back. "Chacon a son gout..."

I have a Samsung 213T that I purchased on sale for under $1000(Cdn) in Canada. It is bright. sharp and large enough for me. It gives off little heat but does cause some noise (RFI) on cheaper earphone cables. It also has difficulty with details in deep shadows.

You may be surprised but Dell monitors are generally
considered excellent. You can spend "MUCH MORE" but
gain only little. If you are running Mac OSX then use
any of the Apple Cinema Monitors. The 21 inch uses the
same LG panel as does the Dell 21. Good Stuff

> Can anyone recommend a flat screen monitor that would be statisfactory > for working with images -- i.e., using Photoshop. I have a Sceptre X20 (20.1 in). Got it at Sam's Club for abt $600. Costco has it on their site for a little less. I like it. I visually compared it to Samsung's 19" & 21" monitors and found it equal to the 21 and better than the 19; $300 cheaper than the 21" Samsung. Al Benas

I live in a very >small house and a flat screen would really free up some space. So do I. But at my workstation, I face a (fading) CRT monitor which backs into a corner. And its rear sticks into corner space which is hard to use for much of anything else anyway. So I haven't the same incentive as Steve. But I want an LCD anyway because some of them pivot or rotate. A 19-inch, 1280x1024 LCD can, for example, be both a ~12-inch+ by ~15-inch "portrait" display and a ~15-inch by ~12-inch+ "landscape" display. That's right-sized for me because, although I do like to see the image full-size on the screen, a 16 x 20 mat and frame are as large as I can conveniently handle in my small quarters. The upper shelf of my two-tiered corner cart can accommodate on top both my 17" CRT palette monitor and a 19" LCD, even in landscape orientation. (It can accommodate more nicely a killer dual-display notebook on the lower layer and a larger LCD alone on top, but that's another thread.) I don't know whether the other displays already mentioned as satisfactory also pivot/rotate, but EIZO has pivoting LCDs which are also designed for color-critical work at 19", 20", and 21". The EIZOs are more expensive, but they also have the longest warranties and the best spec's I've seen. -- Sam

I live in a very > small house and a flat screen would really free up some space. Below is a copy and paste of my "review" on Samsung's 213T I wrote a few months ago. I have the 213T and also Dell's 1905FP 19in Digital LCD as a pallete monitor and I will say the Dell gives the 213T a run for it's money and is equal in perfomance....the Dell is made by Samsung so it only makes sense that performance is close! Actually the Dell is on sale for $260.00 but sale ends tonight. http://www.techbargains.com/dellcoupons.cfm Eventhough the sale ends tonight it will go on sale again in a few weeks, so keep your eyes' peeled. Also I will say it might be worth getting two Dell's 1905FP and using them in dual setup, than getting one Samsung 213T...it might be cheaper too! Anyway here's my review of the 213T: The monitor is really nice. Is it an Ezio...no but for $650.00 or so it's really worth the price and more. Is it perfect? No but it comes close! http://www.buy.com/retail/product.asp?sku=10354201&loc=101&sp=1 A client of mine has a dual 213T setup on his G5. Calibrated with an Eye-One Display and Chromix profiles for his Epson 4000 and 2200 output is right on most of the time. When I first installed my 213T it was running through the VGA output as that was my only option as my main card only has VGA and Apple's ADC connector that does not work with the 213T's DVI connector. Yesterday I ran the 213T through my palette's monitor card - an old ATI Mac 7000 card - that has both VGA/DVI connectors. Wow...what a difference the digital connection made...smooth gray scale and accurate color. Viewing a one-hundred patch grayscale displays as very neutral...is it dead neutral on all patches...no...but if there is a color shift it's so subtle that most will not be aware of this. I've been in photography for about 30 years and I'm very sensitive to color...I can see color differences less than .025CC (that's color correction filters in the olden days.) What I see is differences less than that and only if I stare at it long enough and have a long debate about it with myself. Black Point is Black for sure. The Eye-One does a nice job calibrating as I can see the differences between the 100% and 99%...it's very subtle. The overall grayscale seems a little warm to me - a touch towards yellow - but I feel the Eye-One could be making it so. I will say I like my grayscales on the cool side towards blue, so I think this is more a personal preference. There is no color banding on gray gradients whatsoever. The 100% white point is white with no color shift that I can see. As a Mac user I have two options that could improve the display a touch further: Install an ADC/DVI adapter to run the monitor off my main card - NVIDIA GeForce4 MX with 64 MB of ram or buy a new card. I feel my old ATI 7000 Mac card with 32 MB of Ram is doing an admirable job but when I move windows around the movement is a little choppy. And I'm sure with newer cards color processing is more sophisticated and improved than cards made four years ago.

I too have the 213T I looked around and for the size and money it paid to get it over all 19" CRT and most 20 and 21 inch, except for high end. The think I like about the 213 is the ability to change from Land Scape to Portit, Second thing I really like about the montor is that I have a computer running a version of OS/2warp on and have it hooked up to the montor on the analog and the xp box on DVI and a simple push of the exit buttom chooses which Computer to show. With the DVI though none of the on screen setting are there, must use the video cards setting to set your profiles. Anthony John Vitollo wrote:

I have owned the Dell 24" display for about three months and am very happy with it. The contrast ratio is simply phenomenal, as is the brightness. Color accuracy, after calibrating with eye-one is excellent, so all in all a great performer and under $1K! woody spedden --- Henrik Tived <tived@...> wrote: --------------------------------- Have a look at Dells 24" I have heard that in the US you can get it from around USD$800-1000 got two if them and they are very nice!

I have been following this thread with interest. Last time I looked into this (? a year or so ago), there still seemed to be an advantage to using CRt's for color accuracy and for viewing smooth type, also for viewing any type of video without ghosting with fast motion. Is it correct that these problems are now over and LCD's are just fine for monochrome, but also critical color work for inkjet printing? Also, is type viewing OK on these now? Thanks for bringing me up to date! Scott

Hi Steve: I've been using a Dell 19 inch LCD monitor for several months now and I'm very pleased with it. Much better than my old CRT. Bert -- katzung1@... www.astronomy-images.com

Many thanks to all who replied. I certainly have a number of recommendations to look at. Steve

Yes. I'm using the Colorvision spyder with Optical. I have a dual display with a monitor. I'm not 100% sure yet whether the calibration is working correctly, although color correspondence/density with my prints is OK - not perfect, but ok.
