Replacing my Canon 7D, Tokina 12-24mm, Canon 17-55mm, Sigma 30mm f/1.4, 85mm f/1.4, and 150-500mm with a Panasonic Lumix FZ1000. I still have the 17-55 and the 30 available for sale.

Don't even know where to start.... Lenty007 wrote in post #17539284 ![]() It's hooked on 2 pc's and for one I had to change the image processor (no sweat). Still using the (standard) HDMI-1.2 version so the refresh rate is stuck at 30 which poses only a problem for gamers. But the only game I play is PS so only big smiles here! With another cable I could reach the 60 refresh rate but for now there's no need for it. The screen is stable and the details match the printed versions pretty well. "Image processor"? You mean a graphics card or video card? Lenty007 wrote in post #17540348 ![]() Since 2006 I had a 37inch LG HD-screen as a pc monitor and was over the moon in terms of print-comparability. Mayby I was just lucky but the images on screen came pretty close to the printed versions. In 2014 the UHD-tv's came out and I had no second thought in upgrading to the larger screen and pixels. The one thing PURISTS claim is that a pc-screen (and certainly in use with PS) shood AT LEAST have IPS technology (In Plane Switching). My formal LG and present Samsung don't have this technology but I don't miss it at all. Sure, the pc/laptop must be able to handle the amount of pixels and the large screen so close takes some getting used to (about a week) and as mentioned before games (and only games) are not done (unless you invest in a SLI-setup with 3 screen processors to reach a whopping 120Hz-or-more refresh rate). Maybe I'm hitting some toes to someone but for me the present UHD tv screens are an affordable alternative for the (more expensive) pc screens. Good luck, Alain IPS/PLS is pretty important, especially when on a photography forum. I have a co-worker that swore that his laptop 1600 x 900 screen was fine and not the problem to his wildly varying brightness between all of his photos and thought it must of been Lightroom and was exclusively using PS cause it was more "accurate"... I made him grab a HP E241i IPS monitor from our storage (we work in IT, he is Network Eng. and I am Desktop Tech.) and hook it up the laptop in dual screen mode. I then brought in my Spyder2Pro and hooked it up to the HP and calibrated it and showed him the differences in just a little movement can make between head position let alone laptop position. That was three weeks ago. He is now on the search of a 27"+ IPS monitor. 5D*Sigma 50/1.4*EF 17-40/4
