[Digikam-users] LCD for photos

[Dudas Gabor]

I think the problem with the "cheap" LCDs is that the color of the 
picture showed on the LCD changes with the angle from where you watch 
the screen. If you move your head up-down, left-right you will see that 
the color is not "constant". Of course I think for most of the people it 
is not a problem. But when you want to work with your photos a bit more 
professional way (either because it is required, or just your level of 
standard is higher) this "effect" is not really desirable.
I am still using my Eizo CRT, and the next LCD I would buy is the Eizo 
ColorEdge CG19. But unfortunately that is not the cheap category (more 
than 1000 euro).

Regards,
Gabor
