photographic monitors

[shaunphoto]

I am looking for a monitor between 23-27 inch for photographic work. Preferably an ips panel for colour reproduction. Could anyone recommend any around the £300/$435?

Thanks

These should have good color reproduction

 

Eizo EV2436W

Dell U2413

 

Maybe a little bit over your price range.

Bit over your price range I believe but my Asus PA248Q is just awesome.

I'd say go with Dell U2410. A bit old but still awesome if you need wide gamut monitor.:D

The U2410 is going very cheap now, so grab that while you can. If you're willing to extend your budget a bit more then you cannot go wrong with anything off the Asus Pro Art series. Asus has a beastly 27 inch, PB278Q, but it costs upwards of $600.

I wouldn't recommend the PB278Q for photos, it's not factory calibrated.

 

The Dell U2410, U2413, ASUS PA248Q or PA249Q.

Oh! That slipped my mind. Thanks blade! :)

Actually, with monitor that comes with factory pre calibrated isn't always perfect. You can achieve better color with a calibrator. If you're going to work with a lot photo, you will need to recalibrate your monitor too because the color is going to change at some point.

But it's a starting point isn't it?

Yep, it's better than nothing XD. Just want to point thing out. Assuming that he is going to get a calibrator for his work. If he get one, a pre calibrated monitor isn't going to be a big factor for him because he is going to calibrate his monitor anyway :D.

I agree with everything said.

But just to be clean, for the Dell monitor, we are talking about the U2413H NOT the U2413HM :)

In other words, the expensive one, is what we suggest. :)

 

If you need better, however, you have to go with professional grade monitors, as what was mentioned is the highest end bracket of consumer grade monitors.
