Dear All,
I am new to this forum so I am starting my new thread to post my queries. Please bear with me if this topic has already been covered.
I am currently on the lookout for a monitor which suits my needs when I came across all these terms. Could anyone please enlighten me with facts and figures on how all these can make an effect on the display colour and quality. To be honest I am more interested in natural yet vivid colours than the actual sharpness the monitor can give me. So my questions are:
1.) What is the relation between Wide Gamut and maximum display colours ie 16.7 Mil or 1.07 Bil? and does it have to be that only a wide gamut monitor can support 1.07 billion colours?
2.) What is the relation between LUT or Lookup Tables and maximum display colours?. Does it mean that a monitor having a 10-bit LUT can display 1.07 billion colours eventhough it has a native 8-bit panel considering that the entire pipeline is 10-bit including GPU and application?. If it does not then can I take advantage of a professional grade GPU with a 10-bit LUT monitor?. What is the process taking place when the monitor uses a 10-bit LUT ( Conversions that the signal goes through from source to destination )?.
3.) What is Deep colour and will it have any effect on a native 8-bit+10-bit LUT monitor or does it have to be a true 10-bit display?. PS: I am using a PS3 to watch Blu ray.
4.) In a nutshell what is the maximum number of colours an 8 bit+10-bit LUT panel produce considering LUT?.
Sorry guys, I am pretty sure this one would need a long explanation but please bear with me and help me find the right answers to all these questions. Any help would be appreciated. .
Thanks,
