New Samsung 22" LCD

[USLatin]

They claim to have 87% of the NTSC color gamut... an 18% increase over other LCDs...

is that a big deal?
Should we be interested?
What does it mean?


also a 3000:1 contrast

it has a recommended retail of $660!!!

How much better could they be...

I read 97% of NTSC, thats pretty good. But how true is the color?

 

[Gopher_Greene]

One thing that is a concern, is they said it was optimized for gaming, translation is they've increased contrast. May not be all that good of a monitor for editing.

yes tyop sorry.... 97% of NTSC's colors

I agree... probably very contrasty... but that is a setting that's sure to be in the short list of settings it might have. Would lowering the contrast do away with that particular problem?

What other problems might there be?
