I’m searching for a new good monitor, flat panel to work from. But that is big and inexpensive at the same time. I’ve been looking at Dell 2405; it’s big, and has high resolution and good numbers on paper. What other would match up with a photographer like me?

Hello dear Carl!
I use the Dell 2405 24″ with a great satisfaction since 7 months. The nearest way of the Eizo, but without the price! better than Mac screen. I calibrate it with Monaco Optix and the result is wonderful. It is necessary to set dawn the brightness at the minimum. The size is very comfortable, very hard to return to smallest! Resolution, tones, quality of the black tints, deepth,contrast, quality of fabrication,of are very impressive. A great tool for the price.
For my part, I am very busy now: preparing the next exhibition in Lyon for July…
I wish the best for you and Linn! :oD
My kindest regards,
Georges
I’m checking that one and well, it’s smaller and more expensive than the 2405.. hmm.. Will try to find some good reviews.. :) Thanks fo rthe tip. And Georges, thanks for the info. :D And same too you!
Is the 2405 still available? It seems that the 2407 has lots of problems :(
From what I read the NEC is very close to the Eizo’s in screen quality. And very easy to achieve good results with calibaration. Should be available for prices around 850 euros. But I do admit that the extra screen real estate of a 24″ is tempting :)
