I just bought a new monitor for my PC on whichI do all my photography work. What a difference! I spent a couple of hours just going back through some of my worked pictures. It's like looking at them for the very first time! WOW!

Always nice to have a new toy ;-))
How do the printed pictures compare to what you see on the monitor? Have you done any calibration?

It's an LG. It was on sale at Best Buy. I finally got it put together and hooked up last night. Haven't had time to do any comparisons with my printer. I don't have a calibration program, so I'm hoping I don't have to do anything complicated! Sure makes using LR a lot easier!!!!!

The Dell U2410 is an awesome monitor. Calibrated to Adobe and sRGB. Worth the price. I own two!

This is one of the most underrated aspects of knowing what a good photo is. The monitor makes a huge difference.
