10/20 Do people in photographic or graphic arts or advertising industries
use LCD monitors? When my Samsung SyncMaster 204B displays a picture
or some color graphics, the colors change when I move my head around
the monitor. I don't remember seeing this problem when I had a CRT.
How do people in the above fields use LCD monitors when color precision
is extermely important? Thx.
\_ you want a display with good viewing angles. I used to know all
the terminology. Good viewing angles don't necessarily give you
accurate colors. Visit http://hardforum.com, Displays. You will pay more.
\_ LCD guru, are Macs better for these type of things? I think
Macs in general have more vibrant colors, but I don't know
how accurate they are.
\_ The difference can be pretty dramatic. Go to a Costco or Best
Buy and check out the viewing angles. Then go to an Apple
store. Seeing is believing.
\_ google for color reproduction cinema
\_ I don't know about now, but in the recent past (say 4-5 years
ago) they did not use LCDs in favor of CRTs. No idea how that
has changed over the years, though.
\_ I worked for a game company and all the illustrators and graphic
artists had CRTs while the rest of the company had LCDs. |
