Graphic Designer Approved - Amazing Color -,

This review is from: ViewSonic Pro Series VP2250wb 22" Widescreen LCD Monitor (Electronics)
I am a bit picky when it comes to my equipment. Having spent well over a decade "behind the screens" as a marketing professional, I elect to update my gear on almost an annual basis.
Over that time I have gone from a Viewsonic 17" CRT to Sony 17" LCD to Dell 19" Wide LCD to dual HP 19" wides and so on. For the past few years I have be a fan of running dual Viewsonic 19" Wide Pro Series, they tend to have better color quality than most.
After ordering and connecting two of these beauties, I can say that the VP2250WP screens are the highest quality, richest color monitors that I have ever seen or purchased. 106% NTSC is NO JOKE, and is TRULY AMAZING. The 300 Nits, 2ms/5ms response, 1680x1050 max res and 3000:1 contrast ratio is impressive for a monitor of this size. Clear, Crisp and Accurate. The 22" wide size is sufficient and gives a nice workspace when running them dual.
The new multi-position floater base is great and allows horizontal and new...Read more

Vivid Color & Easy on the Eyes,

This review is from: ViewSonic Pro Series VP2250wb 22" Widescreen LCD Monitor (Electronics)
I just upgraded from a 19" 1280x1024 standard aspect ratio ViewSonic professional series desktop monitor to this display primarily to get a little more horizontal room for casual photo editing and similar programs which also require a portion of the workspace to show tools, palettes, previews, etc., alongside your subject matter. It's worked out great: the bonus is that the colors are extemely bright and true, and the dynamic range is excellent, the latter of which I'm now first appreciating in many photographs.
The item arrived securely, setup and calibration no problem - ViewSonic has upgraded their software nicely. I've been using the item for about a month now, continue to appreciate it, and compared to the vanilla monitors at my workplace it never ceases to amaze me what a different experience this monitor is to view.
For you baby-boomers and older out there, during internet browsing I have to admit to sometimes zooming some websites to 125% in order to...Read more

Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: ViewSonic Pro Series VP2250wb 22" Widescreen LCD Monitor (Electronics)
I am a professional photographer and use 3 Viewsonic LCD monitors for my office and production. Recently I added a computer to my setup and needed a more color and luminence accurate monitor. Being a Viewsonic fan and very satisfied with my previous VP930b LCD monitor I picked VP2250 to add to new computer. I was looking for a monitor with better color reproduction and as VP2250 can produce Adobe colors I bought it. It was a mistake. I couldn't calibrate it using i1Display2 to get complete dark and consistent contrast and brightness. It did show considerable difference in color when I assigned AdobeRGB profile instead of sRGB profile to a RAW picture file. Conclusion is I found this monitor way inferior in performance than previous ViewSonic VP930b monitor which I bought 2 years ago. Can you guess what I did? I returned it and many Thanks to Amazon.com to refund 100% and also sending me return shipping label. All frustration about this Monitor blew away by Amazon.com's customer...Read more
