Hi! I've bought Philips 17P50 CRT monitor. For some odd reason it really hurts my eyes. I've run Adobe Gamma and profiled it. Yet, after 10-15 mins in front of it my eyes start to hurt real badly. My wife also complains.
Now, I went to the service shop. Guy there offered to lower the brightness (set currently at 90) and contrast (set at 60). I didn't quite like this idea because that would mean problems with my photo editing... So, I was offered to buy Philips 200W6CS LCD screen as a replacement. The service guy claimed this screen to be dedicated to photo editing because it has 16 million colors (24 bit color). Suppose I have the money to pay the difference in price between CRT and LCD - is it indeed that good - this LCD screen? Any of you have any experience with it? Is it worth it? Currently I've no computer at home 'cause I've no screen. The screen is in the service shop. On Sunday I'm going to bring my PC and they'll give me a try run on LCD to see with my eyes is it enough for my photography. But they claim that CRT is in perfect order, and it really hurts my wife's and my eyes... Any word of help would be greately appreciated. -- Boris -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List [email protected] http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net
