Default New Poll: What's your monitor size?
There are so many monitor sizes out there today. I thought it would be interesting to see which sizes the Camel community uses. Feel free to show us pics of your monitor.

I'm using a nice CRT, but plan to upgrade in the next year. Thinking about a 20" LaCie.

And I'm the only one with bigger than 30" so far -- I included my 65" that I have my computer hooked up to.

The Samsung got the highest rating for photo and graphics, the 244T model. It's a 24 inch, 16/9 and can run two sepate screen simultaneously.

Right now I have three Samsungs, 21 and 19 and a 15.

I am using two Dell 1800 FP models mounted on a single stand. * I Love the side-by side screens especially in PS. *I can have the photo on the left and all of the tools on the right. Don;t think I could ever go back to a single screen. Here is the site for the stand. http://www.ergotron.com/ConsumerProd...3/Default.aspx

Johnny,

How do you set up your display properties for two different monitors? Is there an easy way, or a video card or a tutorial anywhere?

Thanks.

Just purchased the Samsung 19" yesterday to replace a Dell 15". Wow! What a difference just a couple of inches make.

I have a pair of 19's (Dell units) at work, now, and I wouldn't think of editing pictures on either of them, calibrated or not.

jfrancho,

I have a 23" Sony LCD and it works very well. Why would you not work on a pair of 19" Dell monitors? Are they LCD or CRT?

Sorry, they're LCD, and they don't have nearly the gamut that my CRT (Sony Trinitron) at home has. I've calibrated them, and their color is accurate, but not nearly as rich. If I move to LCD at home, it'll be something from Eizo or LaCie, made specifically for image editing.

Well there is that. My Sony was given to me by my wife when she upgraded to a larger monitor (visually disabled).
