One lesson learned from my struggles with Light room is that squinting at my monitor for long periods only serves to hurt my eyes and prove that I need a better monitor both in terms of size and quality.
So ordered something newer and bigger, a Benq GW2765ht, 27", 2560x1440.
Inspite of ticking the "deliver on Monday" box it turned up today.
This is a big screen. It has physical buttons on the side which is a blessed relief after the touch sensitive tat on my LG e2350.
It has taken some work to install, with the supplied HDMI cable my Sapphire hd5770 vapr x cannot display that resolution but after a few abortive attempts at connecting the display port cable everything is working, including sound.
The built in speakers are excellent, for built in speakers.
Display is stunning and colour reproduction is beautiful.
The monitor rotates to portrait, although on the supplied stand even at the extent of its height adjustment it scrapes the base (so scratched with minutes of opening the box, clearly not tested very well), this does not appear to have any auto-sensing of orientation but it does work, although cable length may be an issue.
Really pleased so far.
