[Avid-L2] Re: Monitor Shootout

Here is Shane Ross' review from the FCP-L list:

<<Unlike the first time, what, three years ago?...two?...these monitors
were all VERY close. They were all 10-bit panels, all in the $10K
range. TV Logic XVM-245W, FSI LM-2470W , Cine-Tal CIneimage B230, two
Sony models (PVM-L2300 and BVM-L231) and JVC DTV-24G1Z. The JVC was
the only 8-bit panel there, and it showed. They were all very good.
I would choose any of them to tell the truth. The FSI and the TV
Logic were the same panels, but the TV logic was darker than the FSI.
The FSI seemed to be set a tad brighter than the rest, and me
personally, I couldn't tell the difference between the Sony PVM and
BVM, even though the BVM had a better backlight. Off axis from all
was very good.

But they all looked good. Again, I'd trust any of them. Which is
what you WANT to see. You want to know that what you see on your
monitor is what someone else would see on theirs. You DON'T want it
too look like what you see in Best Buy...50 monitors and nothing
looking the same.
