Why is there always Geek Talk at 2am! #0.6x5 (Enter at your own risk!)

Also i was told this at one time, and it does kinda make sense, but unless you have a computer capable of pumping out a solid 60+ fps in a game you probubly wont see a big difference in a 120hz computer monitor...

Kenji, I have this monitor: ASUS 25.5" LCD 2ms 1920x1200 (VW266H)

I'm not through the first week yet...And I am having issues sleeping..

Oh! And yes, I'm irritable, I WONDER WHY?

I looked it up, most folks its usually weeks..This is stupid, I have to work thursday...i can hardly function...

I know what your going though man, just try and keep yourself/your mind busy.

I (stupidly) stopped taking all the different meds (inc SSRIs) I was on cold turkey last year, after a few days it became a living hell for close to a week then things settled down quickly after that.

I can relate to you guys on that - Doc got me on a med or two that gets me a bit out of whack. I have a business meeting later today around 3, didn't sleep last night, and spent the entire night color correcting a 40 minute production that doesn't have a due date just to keep my head on straight.

By the way, these aren't SSRIs - if the doctor DOES have you on SSRIs, please... please don't quit them cold turkey. I'm a psychologist (not professionally, but I have a degree and field experience) and that stuff will royally play with your brain chemistry if you don't ween yourself off. Its less hell to half your dosage and deal with it for a few days before dropping it entirely.

I think Kenji said he weaned off of his.
I didn't think of weaning off them at the time, and since I had stopped taking an anti depressant in the past with no major problems I stupidly though that I would be sweet, definitely wasn't prepared for coming off an AAP combined with an SSRI and a TCA all at the same time

The only thing is you would have to minimize LR and then open up PS when working with one monitor. With a dual monitor set up, you don't have to worry about minimizing. Both can be open at the same time. Or you can edit in LR and surf POTN at the same time.

I currently have a dual monitor setup with my laptop as 2nd monitor...but it slows down the laptop a bit

I wonder if I could attach the laptop to the phantom and make this as a 2nd monitor if I need one hahahaha

is it possible?

I used to think calibrating my TN panel was ok. Although, when I sent stuff out to print, the colors were always way off from what I thought was ok on the monitor.. I understand you're on a budget but, once you get an IPS, you won't go back to editing on anything else.

I think that all depends. My Dell XPS laptop (who knows what kind of screen that is, doubt it was IPS) had bang on colors. All prints that I sent off to be made were bang on. I guess I got lucky with it. If you can get a hold of color profiles for the company that your sending prints to that helps a lot also. IPS is the way to go though

so when are you getting yours Omar? ohh you already have an ips monitor on your mbp

More from the same place. The colors at this place were very mute. The only way to make it interesting is to make it mono.

Taken with the 70-200 MK II @ 100mm, aperture @ f/4.

EDIT: I made it a bit lighter here. I felt it was too dark.

I like this shot a lot Julian!

I chose to reedit this image bcoz' I wanted to try a different workflow to get more pop from the Zeiss 21 rendering.

HTTP response: 404 | MIME changed to 'text/html' | Byte size: ZERO

I see the pop but i think there is so much green in this image that it becomes distracting. Im over loaded by it. Especially since the tombs are white it only enhances how much green there is.

Steven for $200 you can get this

yes like I said...somebody is selling the U2311H locally Omar... I like it a lot hehee except I dunno how to tell the GF haha

I can't buy the monitor there Omar, freight cost alone is quite expensive...I think for a monitor it would be more than $100
