I think the biggest place you'll see the difference in is in color gamut. Especially in the darker, more saturated shades, seeing subtle differences will be easier. Under most lighting conditions, you probably won't notice any contrast differences. I'm still using an old 21" CRT on my image-editing machine. Partially because to my eyes the colors look better. I suppose it'll die eventually, and I'll have to find a replacement. Here's to hoping I can afford that iMac before then. -Mat -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List [email protected] http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net
