In the most recent issue of PCPhoto there is a review of LCD monitors. The November 2006 issue is their annual buyers guide.

If you are looking at Dell's monitors, theri 20" monitor (model # 2007FPW is not as good as their old 2005FPW on), but they do have a new 20" with model # E207WFP which is better. Make sure you know what you get. They are not all the same behind that Dell cover.

I have heard the Samsung 244T is the one to get these days. It will probably be my next monitor. I have their 213T, and that's great.

Do you guys know or trust acer monitors for good color i'm looking at the 22' yhey have,i also looked at a hp lp2065 it has a s-ips panel they say its the best panels

At home, I was using a Dell (forget the model). Can't tell you much about it except that it worked pretty well.

My Acer laptop with the CrystalBrite-type monitor shipped with horrible color, but I adjusted it; the gamma was way too high, and washed everything out before I tweaked it. I'd assume their standalone monitors work just fine, calibrated properly.

No problem; wish I could be more specific, as I only really know my laptop's screen, LOL.

Note it says "MF" for manual focus; in the digital world, I've used a little bit of nearly everything, though my own cameras are still Nikon.
