| I've had a lot of misery with the PA246Q. its factory calibration is red. there are plenty of other people out there with the same complaint. even a swap didn;t cure it. its entirely possible you got a later model and they fixed up their calibration. I've had to extensively mess around with the 6 way correction in the monitor to get it even modestly close to acceptable. that includes using a spyder3elite to calibrate it which finally works in V4.0.5 of their software. I would have a very hard time reccomending this monitor w/o trying a new one to see if its any better then the one I got. steve o On Jan 25, 2012, at 5:46 PM, Teddy Gage wrote: So, to anyone interested, I decided on the relatively unknown Asus PA246Q - one of the cheapest "professional" P-IPS monitors with 100% Adobe RGB coverage, 1.07 billion colors, 6 way color control, 0bit displayport, DVI and HDMI. I gotta say its pretty amazing, even without calibrating, especially for the $421 I got it for off ebay. I couldn't justify the additional $1500+ of a dreamcolor or reference monitor, as the eizo I have is already good enough for most of the color jobs I get. If the grading is that intense I tell clients they should rent a da vinci suite anyway. I highly recommend this monitor |
