Do you think there are TFT screens that can be used for photo editing? Any suggestions? Any low-cost ones?

Thanks!

Personally I'd say no.

I have a Packard bell 15" LCD and my father has a 19" Panasonic LCD.

Both are great for reading text, but viewing images is not so good because you get a different image depending on how you hold your head.

I prefer good old CRT for viewing/editing photographs.

Yesterday I posted a similar question. The responses are located at http://www.stevesforums.com/forums/v...amp;forum_id=2

I visited the site for the LaCie 19" blue IV CRT and found the specs and price to be impressive. I'll more than likely be using one within a week. If you are not planning on buying one sooner than that I'll post how it stacks up to previous ones I have owned/used. I had a TFT and did not like it. My others have all been CRT.
