There is always confusion on "g7certified" vs "g7 qualified".
Certification is given to systems that have met G7 requirements per IDEAlliance.
Qualification is given to operations that have demonstrated ability to proof or print to G7 specifications.
In the case of the photographer who provides neither proofs nor prints, qualification may not be relevant, though he probably should be prepared to demonstrate that his monitors are capable of compliance with G7 requirements.
