    Midrange 24" IPS for digital Design work (Dell u2412m, HPZR24, HP2440w)?

    Thanks for all your input!

    Which 27" for graphic/web designer?

    No, actually he probably means that for knowing accurate color reproduction, he will compair the color value (likely a PMS value) with his Pantone color book to see how the color is actually printed. And thus he does not rely on how the color looks on the screen to know how it will look...

    Midrange 24" IPS for digital Design work (Dell u2412m, HPZR24, HP2440w)?

    well, the problem is that it seems impossible these days to find nearly flawless screens. Because of the panel lottery you can have one or a few mellons before you get one you are happy with. The only screen I ever found only praise for was the NEC 2490wUxi, but even that one seem to have QC...

    Midrange 24" IPS for digital Design work (Dell u2412m, HPZR24, HP2440w)?

    Yeah, I figured something like that. Some seem to hate it, but nothing is more annoying than a glossy screen that mirrors you and all lightsources beside/behind you. It is funny, I remember that when CRTs were still booming, an anti reflective coating was a premium quality of pro screens...

    Midrange 24" IPS for digital Design work (Dell u2412m, HPZR24, HP2440w)?

    Well, I went through several user reviews, but basically all non-glossy IPS panels appear to have simular AG coating issues that bug some of its users, but a relevatively small percentage. The 2412m actually should have a less intrusive coating than the ZR24, and its lil 22" sister has the...

    Midrange 24" IPS for digital Design work (Dell u2412m, HPZR24, HP2440w)?

    Thanks man for your elaborate comment! But I guess that the flaws you mention apply for most if not all LCD/LED screens? I understood that the 2412m actually has much less aggressive AG coating, than for example the HP ZR24w. So also that one should not be suitable then. I have to say...

    Would you replace your Dell U2410 with an Apple Cinema Display 27" ?

    I can only speak for the Cinema Display (we have a 27" at work), which in my opinion is largely overrated. Not to say it is a bad display, but it certainly isn't better than the 27" Dell, on the contrary. And personally I dislike the superglossy coating. BUt a pretty screen it is.

    Midrange 24" IPS for digital Design work (Dell u2412m, HPZR24, HP2440w)?

    Thanks, but neither they are here. Anyone else experience with either or both the 2412m or hp zr24w?

    Midrange 24" IPS for digital Design work (Dell u2412m, HPZR24, HP2440w)?

    thanks both, but for now i will pass on that HP. Already difficult enough to decide between tried and tested screens like Dell u2412 and HP ZR24, let alone add a brand new dark horse in that equation :D

    Midrange 24" IPS for digital Design work (Dell u2412m, HPZR24, HP2440w)?

    Thanks, 10e! I understand that you are somewhat of a monitor buff, what do you use them professionaly for? And is there a reason why manufacturers seem to offer smaller (marginally) sRGB coverage? Doesn't seem that a few percent decreases the production costs. Or does it?

    Midrange 24" IPS for digital Design work (Dell u2412m, HPZR24, HP2440w)?

    Hmmm, just found via Behardware this review by Digital Versus with an actually pretty bad review of the u2412. Anyone knows if they are considered reliable and find their findings recognisable? http://www.digitalversus.com/lcd-monitor/hp-zr24w-p11056/test.html

    Midrange 24" IPS for digital Design work (Dell u2412m, HPZR24, HP2440w)?

    Cool, thanks. 2 questions for you if you dont mind... 1. What did you use for calibration 2. How do you judge the contrastlevel of the u2412m? Thanks a lot!

    Midrange 24" IPS for digital Design work (Dell u2412m, HPZR24, HP2440w)?

    Thanks! Score +1 for the Dell ;-) So one can say that the slightly smaller cover of the sRGB colorspace (also the new HP2440w has a smaller cover than the ZR24w oddly enough) has no visible difference? Other experiences are ofcourse much appreciated as well.

    Midrange 24" IPS for digital Design work (Dell u2412m, HPZR24, HP2440w)?

    Thanks. Did you see any other difference between the two IQ wise, apart from the blacklevels?

    Midrange 24" IPS for digital Design work (Dell u2412m, HPZR24, HP2440w)?

    When designing for web, software, other screen products and so on, you use the sRGB color space. But both the Dell u2412 as the HP are sRGB screens, so that is not going to be the deciding factor.
