    Opinion on monitor specs



    OK, I think this is a simple question---when searching for monitors for photo processing, what specs should I be most concerned with?

    Well, unfortunately, the largest I can go is 21 inches due to the space limitations on my desk.

    Bob;


    I just stepped out this quagmire after a month of research.


    The number 1 priority (IMO) is an IPS monitor....and in your budget the HP fits and was my first choice, until I started finding reports of inconsistencies w/their quality.


    I didn't want this headache, so I totally blew my budget (and put the purchase of the 10-22 further down the road)....I purchased the Eizo ColorEdge CE210W.


    Good luck


    Bill

    Well? How has it worked out? Are you WYSIWYG from camera to print?


    I'd really like to know.......[] Expound on the ups and downs if there are any. Also let us know what printer your using and whether or not your're profiling.
