monographix Posted September 10, 2013 Posted September 10, 2013 Thanks! Some things to confirm 1. are there standard gamut monitors that can reproduce 90%+ of the sRGB space and do it correctly? (and also have good tonal scaling ?) 2. colours on a wide gamut monitor (calibrated or not) connected on a pro graphics card do not appear oversaturated and over vibrant ? (opposed to how they appear on a wide gamut monitor connected to a commercial graphic card) 3. all 30" monitors are IPS and wide-gamut?

(opposed to how they appear on a wide gamut monitor connected to a commercial graphic card) 3. all 30" monitors are IPS and wide-gamut? 1) I do not know. I wouldn't say a standard but most, if not all pro monitors can reproduce a good range. I would just look up reviews that cover DeltaE in the reviews 2) I would say a bit more vibrant if you are not use to it. After about a week you stop noticing it. I found it just comes from realizing what the colors are suppose to be compared to years of going on OCC and seeing certain shade of blue instead of a off purple you become use to seeing lol. 3). NO and NO. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
monographix Posted September 10, 2013 Posted September 10, 2013 I suppose the 30" apple cinema in my office and my home 24" HP ZR24W are operating on a factory default sRGB emulation mode ? They are both connected to mainstream cards and their colors are looking like sRGB level of saturation / vibrance. I think those monitors are both wide-gamut ?

bp9801 Posted September 10, 2013 Posted September 10, 2013 The HP ZR24w is not a wide-gamut monitor, and neither is the 30" Apple I believe. The Apple does something like 80% of sRGB while the HP is higher, but still not a wide-gamut monitor. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
kennethk Posted September 11, 2013 Posted September 11, 2013 I need two 30" monitors for design and photography, but the budget limits are leading me to Korean market. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

kennethk Posted September 11, 2013 Posted September 11, 2013 Maybe I've just never had the luxury of using those sort of monitors, depending on the TV I've never seen that huge of a difference. That is when I look at them on display at stores and such. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

ir_cow Posted September 11, 2013 Posted September 11, 2013 Cow, what monitors you have? Do you happen to know maybe anything about the Korean 30" ones? Im using 2x Dell 2410 monitors, as for the Korean monitors, I know nothing more than reviews currently out. From what i've read, it doesn't have all the bells and whistles so I can't see it having anything more than sRGB. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The thing is with my colour requirements that i need to see my designs and photo editing mainly as they appear on average mainstream devices (aprox sRGB i suppose) AND CMYK offset printing which colour range is even more limited and duller than sRGB.

From what i read everywhere all those korean 30" are wide-gamut LG panels ... without bells and whistles in most cases. Some though are fully equipped.

monographix Posted September 12, 2013 Posted September 12, 2013 (edited) Its mentioned in few places in web, (one is here http://www.xtremesystems.org/forums/showthread.php?240965-Standard-Gamut-S-IPS-LCDs&p=4153716&viewfull=1#post4153716 ) that if using Radeon, enabling EDID under color temperature settings in CCC equals sRGB emulation in a wide-gamut monitor. Is that so ? So far i am told that no Korean 30" yet, has sRGB emulation mode Edited September 12, 2013 by monographix Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
