Maintenance suggestions for entry-level monitors

Recommendation of three retouching monitors

I believe that many retouchers or colorists will encounter such problems. Obviously, they spend a lot of time on their own computers to see that the color is excellent, but once they watch it on other display devices, the color is very bad. In fact, this is the result of the color deviation of the display. I recommend three monitors that are cheap and not expensive, but have good color performance, which will make your work more professional.

The first model is Dell's U24 17H, 23.8-inch screen. The design of four narrow borders makes the front look and feel of this monitor excellent. The LCD panel covers 99% of the 99%sRGB color gamut, the resolution is 1080p, and the Delta E color shift value is less than 2, which can maintain the color accuracy to the greatest extent and basically meet the general requirements of retouching and color matching. In addition, the ergonomics of Dell series monitors is first-class.

The second is BenQ's 25-inch PD2500Q monitor. The brand BenQ is relatively low-key, and it seems that it is rarely heard of. However, BenQ is actually very prestigious in the high-end home projector market. This PD2500Q monitor is aimed at professional video editing and color matching users, with a resolution of 2560x 1440, and also covers 99% of the sRGB color gamut.

In addition, BenQ PD2500Q was calibrated by American IDEAlliance G7 color certification experts, which met the Rec.709 standard and passed PANTONE color system evaluation. It is the first display manufacturer in the world to pass CalMA certification. In terms of color accuracy, this monitor can definitely meet the needs of professional users. At present, the price of BenQ PD2500Q on Tmall is 1949 yuan. Compared with expensive photographic equipment, the price of this monitor should be very acceptable.

The last one is LG's 27UL650 monitor, which is a 27-inch monitor with three narrow borders. As a LCD panel manufacturer, LG naturally has nothing to say about the quality of LCD panels provided for its own monitors. The resolution of 27UL650 is as high as 3840x2 160, which conforms to the 4K standard. It adopts 10BIT panel, and the color is not easy to break when matching colors. The screen covers 99% of the sRGB color gamut and can display rich colors. The monitor has passed the HDR400 certification. This monitor has excellent performance in professional retouching, daily watching movies and playing games. The price on Tmall platform is only 2899 yuan, which can be said to be one of the first choices for entry-level 4K monitors.

We recommend 1, 000-3000 yuan, 1, 080p-4K professional monitors with multiple resolutions. Can be purchased according to the purpose and budget. In fact, the display should not only choose a good panel, but also choose a powerful manufacturer, because only the display manufacturer who has accumulated many years of technical experience in the field of professional display can adjust the display professionally and achieve better results. The quality of the LCD panels of the above three monitors is not bad, and they have all undergone professional color adjustment, which can meet the high requirements of users for color accuracy.
