NEC or Eizo Monitor

This coming year I am giving away my 'gold standard', Mitsubishi 2060u to a friend and colleague.

70 cd/m2 has been my illuminance since 1999, beginning with my pair of LaCie 19blue's. I have been comfortable with this for years with darkened studio.

I learned this at Ivey in Seattle during classes and seminars. Long time ago I know.

I keep 70 cd/m2 on the extremely inexpensive LCD monitors I use for the PS tools. Yes, I do create custom .icc profiles for these cheepooo displays. And they absolutely do not match my gold standard.

The 2060u is getting to the point where 80 cd/m2 is not obtainable. I have tried based on discussions from some on this list.

Roger: Quoting you: the replacement better not cost the same price as the original,
otherwise it does not make sense to buy such expensive monitors in the first
place. Please explain what you mean.


Bob: I appreciate you giving validation to low luminance values. I have been criticized for my use of 70 cd/m2 and when attempting to rise above to 120 cd/m2, i get myself into trouble print soft proofing.

What do you mean by, and I quote: shall be at least 80 cd/m2 and should be at least 120 cd/m2?

I have no idea what my new display will be. I do wish to have the LED backlight!

Cheers
