V7 D24W33-N6 ?

[Dave3d]

Hello.
I dont know much about monitors, but I did read the sticky about the differences between TN, IPS, VA, etc...

Currently, I have a VX922 monitor.
It is great for gaming (which is what I mainly do on the computer).
I did notice that when I switched from crt to this monitor, that the lcd did look 'washed out' compared to my crt. But, I have lived with this for a couple years now, and it hasnt bothered me too much.

Anyway, I have been looking at the V7 D24W33-N6 at newegg:

Also been loking at:

As I would like to get into a widescreen monitor now (I have one at work, and am enjoying it much more than a reg monitor).

So, questions:
1. Has anyone used or seen this monitor? I can only find 1 review of it, and I dont like to buy things without multiple reviews or user comments.
2. Has anyone had ANY dealings with a V7 monitor at all? Good quality?
3. How do you tell what panel is being used, when the panel listing isnt shown?

Thanx for any info you can provide.

Well, I bit on this monitor, for $382 with free shipping from amazon.

I wrote a review of it over at bleedinedge.com (Only my second review, so please dont be too critical ).

I am looking at trying to measure the input lag, and have read a little bit about it, but still am not sure what is needed?

I already have a crt.
Does it matter if I use a dvi to vga converter (ie: will this add lag?)
What software is used to do the counting thing?

Lastly, what sort of camera is needed?
I have a canon PowerShot SD870 IS. Would this be sufficient for the test? If so, how would I need to set it up?

I know there is lag with this monitor, I just want to know how much.

Thanx.
