***EDIT: I should have renamed the title of this thread as it's not just about Hazro...but I can't change it!***
Hi everyone - I'm new here, so a big hello!
I've been looking at upgrading my Hannspree 19" TN panel monitor to a larger IPS one. It's strictly for editing in Lightroom 4 and PS CS6. I'm a bit torn over whether to get a standard or wide gamut monitor so would love some advise. Thing is, I don't currently print very much so virtually everything is in the sRGB colour space. However, despite this, there are some distinct advantages with having a wide gamut monitor...although because I have never worked on one, I'm not really sure whether I will absolutely need one at the moment...and I'm trying to keep costs down too!
So anyway, its down to the following options: -
New Dell U2410 (wide gamut)
New Dell U2412m (standard gamut)
Refurb Dell 2711 (wide gamut)
New Hazro HZ27WB (wide gamut)
I'm also unsure whether I will need 27" over a 24", but the prospect of the extra real estate is tempting. Is the jump from 19" to 24" absolutely massive already? Is the 27" too big and unnecessary? Love to know, in particular, from those that use LR or PS.
Also, there seems to be scant reviews on the Hazro model. I'm surprised that there are only 2 user comments on Overclockers.
Has anyone else bought one and had any good/bad experiences? Have their QA improved? They seem to be on and off in terms of web presence here, so it's putting me off in terms of buying from them...it's just the price/spec that is really tempting me!
Any help would be appreciated!
