Monitors and "Ultra" 4k TVs - two many circles in my head

[DavidEccleston]

A monitor with lookup? Is that if you aren't using it on a computer, and can't apply an ICC profile at the graphics driver level, so you're transforming the color on the monitor itself? At first that seems weird, but I guess if you connect the monitor to your camera directly then that's your only option for color calibration.

Well that is what is in the product description, distracting advertising copy? Perhaps when running a video/streaming somthing??? I have to admit, this one of the parts of imaging I know very little about (as if I know anything about any part of imaging).

While I have done some uber big pano's w/ the idea of doing a wall sized high res print, I haven't yet done so - mostly because I haven't figured out a good way to cost effectively change the wall size prints (advent of modern life - wanting to be constantly over stimulated?). My point to this is that it is far more likely that all my images are going to be seen by some computer screen or HD TV somewhere and 10bit RGB 4k is pretty much the top of things for images flinging about the internet for the next 2 or 3 weeks (and the masses for a much longer time).

I have heard/read look up tables the past (don't recall precisely how they were used, etc) I think this is a bit of my one simple anxiety of not doing anything any less intelligent than I already have (which actually would be pretty hard to do as I have done some really lesser things).

I am wanting to dial up the enjoy images more than acquire gear to acquire more images that I don't see very often. Kayaker and I chatted about traveling to take more images vs. acquiring gear - this is along the same lines.

Thanks for reading the ramble any help on this is appreciated.
