Lacie 324 mostly recommended
I bought this monitor and I'm more than happy with the specs, as a photographer you choose your monitor carefuly and it was perfect for my needs. shame I didn't see this article before as I have paid £135 more.
at 707 its a real bargain.

Excellent!
I bought this monitor not long after the review was written.
I wasn't disappointed - so good out of the box, all I adjusted was the brightness, and it's great for art/photography purposes.
