Which monitor is better to choose for color correction within 40t? Mac and PC?

Question

Monitors

0) Work mainly with video.
1) Work is carried out mainly on PC and sometimes on MAC (macbook).
2) The preferred resolution is 1920x1200, but more is possible.
The main criterion is that the monitor shows equally well on MAC and PC.
A small digression into the history of the problem for those who are interested: Now I have a Dell 2408wfp and I'm tired of configuring it for MAC, the Colormunki hardware calibrator also did not cope with the task (for PC too, but there is an NVIDIA panel where I can adjust the color myself). Googling and reading forums showed that the dog is buried in Wide-gamut (monitor class), MAC works quite incorrectly with such monitors (of course, this is not an Apple monitor that is not wide-gamut), and with the release of Mountain Lion, work with color profiles changed at a low level, and now it’s even more confusing, for example, the OS uses one color profile to draw the desktop, and another color profile to draw the Dock bar icons (in my case, this is the case anyway), which is why these same icons eat out the eyes with their oversaturation of color,
Who has experience with color on MAC and the result is completely satisfying? . The Apple monitor is most likely not suitable, because connecting a macbook and a pc to it in parallel seems impossible to me

Answer 1

Read the reviews on tftcentral.co.uk and pay attention to the accuracy of the factory calibration of the sgb mode. If you need a wide coverage, there are few options - asus p246 nec pa241 dell 2410. Nec is scolded the least and has the best features and characteristics. Asus say, on the same matrix as Nek and Dell, but the execution is simpler and there are almost no detailed reviews. I have a certain p221 with a wide coverage and I have not yet made a normal profile for the srgb mode, adob rgb just calibrates easier, and srgb has visually white and gray others, although they should be the same. As I understand it, everything is much simpler for p241 because of the multiprofiler function. I found one review about your monitor where the srgb mode gave big errors during calibration, so I didn’t take it)
If coverage is not needed, then take any 24-inch led on an e-ips matrix for 15-20k, Dell HP and Lenovo are not bad. there is also a Samsung 27 inch with a pls matrix at an interesting price, but I haven’t read about it)
Oh yes, about the poppy) calibrated the macbook to a friend, there is not much difference in the process. If there are such difficulties with color management even in the case of a normal monitor coverage (I don’t know, maybe buying an sRGB monitor will cost everything), look for a monitor with LUT calibration of the monitor itself, the above-mentioned Nek and Asus can do this, but some need a proprietary one for this software that has a trial 14 days then asks for dough, but I didn’t read about loot calibration from Asus, because there are no detailed reviews) there is a third-party basiccolor program, but I haven’t tried it yet, write in PM I’ll unsubscribe how I’m using it. When calibrating the LUT of the monitor, the setting works regardless of the axis and the video card, unlike the usual hardware calibration, it calibrates the lut of the video card

Answer 2

Color correction is a three-edged sword. The colors will still differ on different monitors, so it's not worth chasing true color rendition IMHO) We use DELL U2713H at work. It produces a good picture out of the box (which still does not match perfectly in color with the $26k reference monitor, let alone consumer TVs).

Answer 3

I would look towards IPS. but not lightweight, but more expensive.
well, plus professional calibration of the monitor under current conditions for both operating systems
