    S-IPS, H-IPS Monitor / Panel List

    Thats a really useful link - thanks. I wonder if someone knows where there is a full list of the monitors that have an internal programmable look-up table (LUT)?, eg. NEC2690, Samsung XL24, Eizo SX2461 etc.

    HP LP2475w (Possible new IPS)

    I also experience a green/pink problem - maybe similar to that described by rgazaway. If I look straight at the centre of the monitor on a white screen - the centre appears white, glance to the left of the screen and there is a hint of green in the white. glance to the right of the panel and...

    NEC 2490 Buzzing/Humming?

    An update on the buzz/hum on my NEC2690. I followed soujir0u's idea and got a transformer to test the monitor at 110v. In my case it made no difference to the hum/buzz - it was still there. I can only conclude that the buzz/hum is related to the backlight. (When my ear is pressed near the side...

    A fresh look at an old favorite: my new NEC LCD2490WUXI SV

    Snowdog - great review - thanks! I'm really keen on this monitor - but like others can't buy it in the UK. I know there's a 24" S-IPS hazro out there - but its not really the same animal - it has a glossy screen and non-adjustable stand. There are also reports of banding issues. As...

    Has anyone been able to collate information, (maybe in tabular format would be useful) which shows which NEC MULTISYNC 2690 WUXi revisions:- 1. Have the hum/buzz issue due to brightness adjust/voltage at 240 problem 2. Work with spectraview II to allow hardware LUT adjustment (if any do?). I...

    Has anyone been able to collate information, in tabular form, which shows which NEC2690 revisions have the hum/buzz issue? I have seen a lot of reference to various european revisions such as 4A, 4B, 4F. I have just bought a NEC2690 and my monitor is labelled revision 1A manufactured 2008/08...

    Eizo S2411W-U

    Hi. I had a demo of the 2410 but havent seen the 2411 in action. the only thing that put me off the 2410 was the horrendous "twinkling" due to the overdrive circuit. The "twinkling" is shown as white flashes at high speed when watching video. I wonder if you can see this same thing on the 2411...

    Eizo S2411W-U

    Hi. it might be worth waiting for the new Eizo 24" due in June. here's a link to a thread I started on this monitor. Given the monitor's product name it seems to be geared to HD and to coping with input from external sources. http://www.hardforum.com/showthread.php?t=1178535

    Eizo S2411W-U

    Thanks for the info chippy. glad to hear native digital are flexible and offered choice to return if unhappy. I wouldnt have thought the 7 day UK distance selling regs apply if you have unpacked and tried the item? On a technical note - how have you found the monitor for playing DVD and video...

    Eizo S2411W-U

    Hi Chippy, I've been looking at these monitors for a while now and its only the dead pixel policy of Eizo Uk that has put me off taking the plunge. When you spoke with Native Digital - how did they react to you saying you would be sending back if there was a dead pixel ? - were they happy to...
