I'm looking for recommendations for a 4K monitor for colour grading. I'm on a PC, with a budget of up to $1500. Feeling a little overwhelmed by all the options from BenQ, Viewsonic, LG etc!
I'm also wondering if i need an external calibration tool? Part of the marketing from BenQ, is that some of their monitors are guaranteed accurate because of colour-calibration done at the factory!...but i find that hard to believe.
Any thoughts, or recommendations of monitors you own (and really like) in my price range are greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Robert
Are you looking for a computer monitor you want to use to display the video and grade from it or a monitor that will be fed an HDMI or SDI signal from a Decklink/UltraStudio?
If it is the former, don't. Or at least try not to, especially if you are on Windows OS.
If it is the latter, I recommend an LG OLED HDTV.
