Budget 10-Bit Monitor for VIDEO EDITING?

Need a new #editing #monitor while on a budget?
It's not easy picking the best one with all the available options out there. I did lots of research and choosing between 4K and lower resolution monitors.
In the end I managed to find the #BenQ2700Q.
Somewhat of a forgotten gem when it comes to monitors specifically made for color critical work.
So if you're looking to buy a new monitor hear what I have to say about my new favorite display.

📢 ARE YOU HAPPY WITH YOUR CURRENT MONITOR? 🖥️📺

I think there is enough room on Youtube for such a quality person like you. I hope you would keep going.

Hey Thomas cool video! Acutally monitors in this price-range are not true 10-bit displays. It's 8bit+FRC - you can google it easly what that means. Anyway keep up good quality videos!

I got an Asus Proart PA278QV for very similar reasons. I got extremely lucky with a Target deal + gift certificate so it only cost me like $50 out of pocket. I've been very happy with it for my photo editing and video editing needs even without 10 bit, HDR and all those other bells and whistles.

I got dual gaming monitor setup for my Windows desktop PC. I really like taking photos and editing on the gaming panels is not ideal, so I edit on a 15 inch MacBook pro screen, is an IPS but full Retina 8bit screen with perfect accuracy, but I'm slowly leaning towards adding a photo editing monitor to the setup and replacing an old FHD 144hz gaming monitor. I just need a 27inch VESA mount and maybe 4k I'm not sure, this PD2700Q is not a bad option thought! Is hard man I'm stuck in a loop :D

I edit 8 bit footage. Which monitor would you recommend?

[MikaelAtterby]

All of a sudden I want a new monitor too...

[mattmellen]

How can i get the same thing but in 4K?

[joshpankey]

Are you still using this monitor and if so how's it working out?

[awareness]

Thank you very much for your video - May i ask which computer specs do you have (Graphic card, RAM, processor etc)?

[juliangigante]

Hi Thomas. Just watching this 9 months after you posted. Would you say this is still a good monitor to buy today? Current price is $349. Any other good options under $500 you recommend? If so any 4k ones? I mostly desire a monitor to improve my video color grading process.

Very clear and informative video! I am an enthousiast wildlife photographer and I was looking for monitor. I also do some occasional gaming. Is the *Dell* *S2721DGF* also good enough color-wise? From what I could see it has 10-bit (8-bit+FRC) / DCI-P3; HDR10 Would like to know if you could recommend it ! Thanks in advance

I ran to your video. Is it still great to get this monitor this day? Or benq release a new one but similar to this?

[ozzythemighty]

Should i buy it for Color grading or is there any other i should actually look at before i make my decision?

[yourtrustedbrandingarchitect]

I'm very drawn to your vertical monitor to your right. Do you mind telling me what monitor that is please? Thanks

where have u been all my life?! i've been looking for budget 10bit monitors but all of them r too damn expensive.
even budget 1080p 10bit panel can go a long way instead of dumb 4k which needs expensive pc anyway. native 1080p, 10bit IPS panel is what this world needs for everyone.
