“Over the last few years seeking monitor/display units that serve to perform with adjustment and color management to resolve the problems of too bright LCD displays causing too dark prints, my reaction has usually been mixed. I have to report that this was less so with this display than with even more sophisticated and expensive displays.”

LG Electronics is the first to offer a new pro-graphics LCD display with LED backlighting. It also has the wide Adobe RGB color width, and will adjust to the lower 80.0 CD/m2 white luminance to provide color-managed printing brightness. The new display is optimized for Microsoft Windows with WQHD 2560x1440 resolution and multitasking windows, “dependent on content, device, interface and/or graphics card,” according to LG. The 27” diagonal size has a base physical resolution of 1920x1080 pixel resolution that may be doubled by the software driver with some PC systems running Windows.

Adobe Creative Cloud is a membership-based service that provides members with applications that can be downloaded. Since then Adobe has acknowledged they expected some user reaction, particularly from photography enthusiasts. They have responded to some of these issues from the public directly on their website as well as that of Scott Kelby (http://scottkelby.com/). Digital Help has also received numerous reader letters about this change and responses to a recent Digital Help column, some of which we share here.
