Question about BenQ Sw2700pt
Hi, I'm looking for a monitor for image editing that renders good colours and doesn't cost over 1k, can you recommend this monitor? are there any good alternatives in this price range? Do I need to calibrate this monitor? can I connect this to an iMac?
A good alternative in this application area is the Eizo CS2730, which I have been toying with for a while. But since it costs over 1k, I would clearly lean towards this BenQ monitor, which you have to calibrate, yes.
How you attach the iMac depends on the age of the Mac.
If it's equipped with Thunderbolt 2, the mDP to DP cable that comes with it is sufficient.
If it has Thunderbolt 3, you'll need a USB-C to DP cable: StarTech USB Type-C to DisplayPort Cable (1.80m, Midrange, Black)
