The size 24 "is already impressive and largely sufficient for photo editing. I use PSE8 and LR3.
The screen comes in its original packaging, well protected. It comes with display port cables ??? but not HDMI, which is a shame, USB, DVI and VGA. The screen is of very good quality. No dead pixels in my case. The menu is easy to access and very friendly. It has the ability to display a grid on the screen or the size of pictures very easily. The changeover portrait / landscape and very easy also.
At color rendering is perfect, I calibrated my Spyder 3 but there was virtually no correction.
I am now sure to have the real colors and it's really nice.
I can only recommend this screen to all those who, like myself, are demanding for their pictures.
I can not speak for other uses (especially video games) because I do not use it at all for that.
