LaCie Displays Increase Gamut

David Schloss - Products Editor

Photographers are always looking for the most accurate color solutions possible. However, one of the most common parts of the color management chain often is the weakest—the monitor.

While LCD displays, now the norm in most photographic environments, are great in terms of sharpness, they don't have as wide a gamut (the range of reproducible colors) as do CRT displays.

LaCie's new 700-series displays offer 123-percent of the AdobeRGB spectrum, which means that they can display a wider range of colors than other monitors.

Available immediately in 20-inch, 24-inch and 30-inch (at $1599, $2299 and $4599 respectively) the displays all act as USB hubs and the two largest models have a 16:10 wide-screen aspect ratio. All three are available today www.lacie.com
