Hi just an update.i ended up buying the Asus pa279q Monitor.its a really nice screen .I read a few negative reviews about light bleed or a loud whinning noise and lots of positive reviews so I thought I'd take a chance.up to now Ihaven't experienced any problems. It's an excellent monitor. Thanks again for your help. Mark.

<p>Hi Thanks. Ill take a look. Cheers Mark.</p>

<p>Hi thanks for your quick responses. I thought my monitor might be on its last legs but just wanted a second opinion. Any ideas on a good monitor? Thanks again. Mark</p>

<p>Hi everyone, I calibrate my monitor with a Lacie Blue eye. Ive noticed over the last six months or so that the luminance will only calibrate to 100 even though im trying to set it to 120. Will the difference between 100 and 120 dramatically affect the overall result when getting prints. And has anyone got any idea why the problem is occuring. Thanks in advance. Mark</p>

<p>Hi Andrew,<br> ok cheers.Thanks a lot for all your help. Hope you have a good wekend.</p> <p>Mark</p>

Hi Andrew, What do you mean keep lowering until I don't get a match?sorry I didn't really understand I've got the monitor brightness and contrast turned up to 100%. Cd/m2 only calibrates to 114 when I set it to 120.as I said the prints looked fine. Thanks again for your help. Mark

Hi Andrew, Thanks for your help.I thought it might be the monitor.I've only had it for 4 years though.Not very long but I don't know the shelf life of one. I had a few prints done today in my lab and I must say they look perfect. Not sure if I should wait a bit now until I buy a new monitor.I don't totally trust this one anymore now.think I'll give it a few weeks see if it gets any worse.thanks again. Mark

<p>Hi everyone,<br> ive got a Lacie blue eye 2 that ive been using for a couple of years with no problem. Now the last week or so it isnt calibrating properly. Gama and whitepoint are fine but the cd/m2 only goes to 114 when i have set it to 120. I really dont know what has changed.Im out of ideas. Any help would be great.<br> Thanks in advance.<br> Mark</p>
