There was < Star Wars >, now there is "Gamut wars" - seriously. I'm not
advocating any one as "THE" one-size-fits-all gamut. Having downloaded the
BenQ SW2700PT brochure, in the heat of recent discussions, here, I could not
help notice the CIE chromaticity diagram part, on page 2, graphically
boasting the "99% AdobeRGB" coverage. So I imported that graphic into my
Illustrator document to superimpose it on my own Chromaticity diagram and,
lo and behold, if I am to believe BenQ's chart, the BenQ chromaticities do
coincide pretty closely to AdobeRGB's chromaticities. See below:

I'm not working for this company but I do find it interesting that their
price is significantly lower, for "comparable" specs, to more costly
alternatives which gives me the impression that prices for wide-gamut
displays are coming down.
I find it interesting, too, their "positioning" in terms of
"Pro-photography" and "AdobeRGB". Whether it's NTSC or SMPTE-240M, people
call it AdobeRGB, nevertheless. I'm curious who buys these BenQ monitors?
Most comments on Amazon are positive.
