Reviewer Images (click to see full-size image) (Click anywhere inside this popup to close it) Using Nikon Capture NX2 Pros:?photo editing ReviewI'm a 'serious' amateur photographer, and need to have my monitor calibrated. I've been using a ColorVision Spyder2 for several years and getting good results with two previous monitors. I just bought this great 24" Dell, but had to scratch my head a bit to get it calibrated. My Sypder2 instructions recommends keeping default settings for LCD monitor brightness/contrast, but this monitor is really bright, so before starting the calibration process I turned down the brightness setting to 20 from the default value of 50 - I figured that would be a good starting point. from Dell.com Reviewer Images (click to see full-size image) (Click anywhere inside this popup to close it) ReviewI think for this price this monitor is outstanding, the sharpness and clarity of this monitor is unbeatable a this price. I bought and returned 2 other 24 inch monitors before buying this one (one Samsung and one Viewsonic), the quality of the picture on this monitor is so superior that there is no comparison, the other 2 were unacceptable (font fuziness, off colors...)for somebody like me who spends hours everyday in front of the monitor and value his eyes. It doesn't look cheap at all to me and actually looks great on my desk next to my other Dell monitor. from Dell.com Reviewer Images (click to see full-size image) (Click anywhere inside this popup to close it) Quad Monitors - All Dells Pros:?Video Editing, Finances, software development, photo editing ReviewI'm a professional software developer and at work (and at home) I've been using dual monitors for years. About a year ago, my work tried to save some money by buying me two 20" Samsung flat panel monitors, however, the color would shift as I moved my head up/down or left/right which makes it very tough when most of my work I do is creating User Interfaces for enterprise applications. from Dell.com ReviewNice display with multiple inputs. Bright line appeared after 18 months of use and Dell refuses to cover under warranty. from Dell.com Pros:?Connecting with Friends, Video Editing, Gaming, Music & Movies, Presentation, music composition ReviewI have used it both as a visual unit for my computer and for my Playstation 3. Back in November, I recall pulling the monitor out of its protective layering realizing that I had little to no room on my desk currently for the unit. When they say the screen is 24", they don’t include the 3" combined with the edges. You need space to place a 27" wide monitor....unless you plan on utilizing its unique and quite wonderful portrait function in which case you'll only need about 18" to fit the monitor (since it'll be sideways in a sense). from Dell.com Pros:?Music & Movies, Presentation, slingbox ReviewI have had this Monitor for about a month and I can't say enough about it. Currently running on a Dell 4550 desktop I bought in 2002. The 4550 is a Pentium 4 400 sidebus that I upgraded with a 1GB mem and a diamond stealth AGP 256MB vido card. from Dell.com I'm confused... I was ready to buy, and fall in love with this monitor. I have the 2407WFP. Then, I ran into the complaints about it getting stuck in POWER SAVE mode. from Amazon.com again amazon is overpriced and is to lazy to check this out at dell the dell 2408 wfp 24 inch monitor that is selling on amazon for very much more from Amazon.com I think for this price this monitor is outstanding, the sharpness and clarity of this monitor is unbeatable a this price. I bought and returned 2 other 24 inch monitors before buying this one (one Samsung and one Viewsonic), the quality of the picture on this monitor is so superior that there is no comparison, the other 2 were unacceptable (font fuziness, off colors...)for somebody like me who spends hours everyday in front of the monitor and value his eyes. It doesn't look cheap at all to me and actually looks great on my desk next to my other Dell monitor. from Amazon.com Simply put, I love the Dell Ultrasharp line of monitors. I currently have two monitors, one 24" and one 21", the older one has been running for over five years with zero problems, the "younger" of the two has been running strong for three years. from Amazon.com
