Ok, have my Mac Pro, and FC studio. In the process of setting up the rest of the system. Its eventually going to be a general purpose system, editing, photo, modeling, effects, and maybe some sound, all thrown in together. I have a whole shopping list of things I want to get to complete things. I've built, and worked with multi monitor systems (Night club DJ systems), and will be running a mutli monitor system here. I'm pretty sure I've decided on Dell Ultra sharp monitors. These will be general purpose monitors (not color grading).
BUT!! (there's always a but), My shopping list priority allows me a certain amount, at this time for this. So I could get two 24 inch (16:10, 1900x1200) ultra sharp.
Or I could get one 27 inch (16:9, 2560x1440), or possible save a little more and get one 30 inch (16:10, 2560x1600)
If I go the single monitor route, it may be 6 to 8 months, before my budget will allow the 2nd monitor. I have a crappy 19 inch lcd, that I can use, if I needed too, but it isnt that good.
I was just like to hear some opinions, about your work flow, and what you think about screen sizes, for FCP and the other applications you use. I know there is a monitor forum, but since FCP in my focus, I wanted to ask some fcp people their thoughts.
Thanks,
Jeff
