Hi I am long term photographer and not so expert at all with video editing. I’m about purchasing a Mac Studio M1 Max this week and I have to find a new monitor. My iMac 27” 5k did the job but I need a new one for my new Mac Studio. I have been looking hundreds of reviews asking here and there…
My main concern is that the right monitor for photography not necessarily match with the ideal for DaVinci with 4K video.
My main concern with Photoshop is about 27” monitor with 4K-5k when I see the images at 100% aren’t big enough to work with precision. I need to zoom up to 200/300%. A 2k monitor as BenQ SW270C would allow me working still images in a more logical size when zooming to 100%. It’s not a beautiful monitor that match with the mac aluminum minimalist aesthetic. I also like the Dell U2723QE but does not covers Adobe RGB color space as BenQ does
On another hand when I edit video with DR in my actual 5k iMac m
Y main concern is that 27” are not big enough (in height) to allow seeing the visor in an enough big size to notice the details when I am working with precision in masking or whatever. So maybe a 32” monitor would allow me to have a bigger size visor. Maybe enough to don’t needing a second monitor. I am contemplating the Dell U3223QE.
My question here is hearing the point of view of people working in photography and Video with the same monitor. How important is a 4K monitor for editing 4K video compared to doing in a 2k monitor. Also what about the sizes 27” vs 32” I don’t have a huge desk to work far away of my monitor so I wonder how comfortable is to work on a 32” at 2,5 to 3 feet from screen. I have mentioned 3 Monitors here so any advice about which one or any other up to $800-900 no more budget.
Thanks in advance
