Hi there,
I'm just curious to know is this monitor good for photo editing & doing 3D stuff? Do advise & TIA.

When you spend good money on it, it's definitely good stuff.
I using a cheapo Dell Laptop and Mac G5 desktop for video editing/colour correction/animation and photo touchup. As long as your monitor is calibrated properly, any LCD/LED monitors can serve the same need. When you throw more money at your gears, you got to justify to yourself why when you get something else at half the amount.
You're absolutely wrong in this!!
Most of the el-cheapo TN panels are only 6 bits / channel and all in all 18 bits for RGB. Also, never forget the limited viewing angles and the color loss / shift on widest viewing angles.
How can you compare these to the true IPS panels with extraordinary viewing angles (H-178 / V-178) with 1.07 billion color depth from 12-bit internal processing (8 Bits / channel) and 6 Axis Color Controls (RGBCMY).
I'm not even going to talk about the NTSC / Adobe RGB / sRGB color coverage.
Tell me which TN panel comes with a factory calibration and a guaranteed Delta E of less than 5?
Thk you all for the info dudes. One more question here. May I know which recent color calibrator (brand) can you guys recommend that has better performance (plus easy to use) in getting better results out from the Dell U2410? Do advise & cheers.

I'm not advocating that to go for cheapo TN panels and avoid IPS panels.
Obviously, the TN panels have trouble showing even millions of colors. To be precise, TRUE colors. You CAN get millions of colors by sub pixel dithering, spatial dithering, temporal dithering and Frame Rate Control. Again, I reiterate that these can't be taken for true colors.
When you throw good money for IPS panels, you got to justify the purchase to yourself. I don't see the practicality of buying it just to admire the 1.07billion colour depth etc etc.
I use a 2 year old gear with perhaps a technology already 5 years old to churn out products that my clients pay for. If el cheapo can do the job, I don't see the need to spend more money.
Sometimes it is easy to be carried away when you buy gears with pockets full of cash. That's why there are people who buy pns to shoot great photos and there're people who buy great dslr to shoot crappy photos.
I'm glad that you're not..

If your TN panel shows colors closer to your output, you're indeed lucky. Not everyone can be as lucky as you.
This analogy doesn't work here..A TN can't even reproduce the true colors. If the person is serious in photography making a living out of it, I would strongly suggest to go for a professional monitor or at least an affordable IPS based monitor (Avoid E-IPS at all cost).
Again, I'm not offensive against your post or your comments. I'm just stating the facts clear for the TS to make a wise decision.
Peace.
hi geekbrains,
what monitor would u recommend? i might buy one...as my laptop LCD colors really sucks..
tks alot
