Jim, monitor threads pop up from time to time here.
The very best for photo editing are the Eizo range. Their top range models
are expensive though.
Whatever you get, consider a wide screen bigger model. It is very helpful to
have a big screen area for all of the palettes and windows.
I recommend that you get a monitor calibration device as well. A calibrated
monitor is a very large advantage when you are judging colour and tone. 

Cheers
Geoff

Luggers-

 

Many thanks for the answers to my sepia-screen Photoshop question a few
weeks ago.

 

It turns out that the problem lies in my monitor, rather than Photoshop.
Evidently, after four-plus years of constant use, my monitor is going the
way of the Merrimack.  

 

Any suggestions for a new monitor that would work well with Photoshop, etc.?

 

Best,

Jim Shulman

Bryn Mawr, PA

 

PS.  More of my tacky photos due soon-when the they-shall-be-nameless photo
lab locates my processed film!  This past Friday I opened a packet, only to
discover a pile of rather dull shots showing crumbling old buildings.  I'm
sure that someone got a big surprise!
