As far as I know it has Blue only, underscan, SMPTE-C phospor etc.
For 400 used, is this a good buy??? I need to use it for color corrections and regular post-stuff related work. Pls let me know ASAP what do you guys think.

Re: SONY 1342Q

Used monitors are always a risky buy -- it depends on how much it was used. Is there screen burn-in? Does it have 16:9 mode? $400's not a lot, you can buy 1354Q's off ebay for around $400-$450. But I know a guy who went through like three of them before finding one that was satisfactory, the others all had problems.
 
Re: SONY 1342Q

thanks barry..thisone is actually off ebay..What other place would you suggest to get monitors. I tried one of the sellers on ebay called David Riddle Co. and called him but that guy was so pushy that I just to told him I'm not interested. Even though he sells calibrated monitors...anyone knows this guy or bought anything from him??
 
Re: SONY 1342Q

I have no recommendations for used monitors... like I say, buying used monitors is tricky. I'd recommend going for new if at all possible. A new Panasonic BT-H1390Y goes for around $1100 or so at EVS and B&H... but that's 3x the price of the used one, so I understand the appeal of used, I just don't know how you can go about safeguarding yourself and be sure that you're getting $400 worth of monitor...
