My trusted NEC Multisync PS271W is on its way out.
So I'm looking for a replacement - with DVR in mind.
COMPUTER:
Current: MacBook Pro 2012 16GB RAM 500 GB SSD
Planned upgrade to the next gen MacPro when it comes out.
WORK:
Current:
Color critical fashion still work and fashion video for the web. Film/Video work is increasing quite fast. Currently all shot in 1080p 24p .
Future:
Video is an important part of my future - especially as I have a lot of experience in screenwriting. End of the year I will shoot a short film for a client in 4K, most likely on a RED camera.
4K seems to become the new standard - any way I could plan for this, too? I might move away from shooting video with a DSLR and acquire a specialized camera for video.
TWO MONITOR SETUP?
I'm used to a single monitor setup - would you recommend a 2-monitor setup? I could keep the current 27" monitor as a monitor for the panels, and buy the new monitor for the viewing
of the color corrected content only.
NEW MONITOR:
NEC or Eizo 24"? There are versions that you calibrate with an i1Display Pro and others, costing more than twice, with hardware calibration built into the monitor.
What's your take on this?
High end monitors for 5000 - 7000$ are currently not in the budget.
