great thread.... thanks for all the hints....

i now have a cheap eizo (s2401W) and the difference is really visible to other monitors. but yes its the cheapest one... so sometimes i think i see the 8bits... so same question... i will now calibrate the monitor with the gretag mcbeth eye one and hope to see reality. my goals are hd-cam tape, dvd/blue-ray, dcp and filmout. and for sure i want to work with color. need a 2k dpx sequence at playback on the 8core with the nvidia8800 GT the uncompressed disk speed of 200MB/S sustained ?
Then the big thing LUTs. For each destination a own LUT plus the intuition, or no LUT and only the intuition, vectorscopes, plus trying and see how it looks like on the screen?

Who can make LUTs for every destination format ??????

Also the thing that every laboratory, filmstock and laser is different.... then the field digital cinema....

So if i import the raw files into color, set cameraRGB/REDlog, Space: Linear 0-1023, rendertype DPX and if I go to filmout/DCP, are that the right settings? If going to broadcast only switching on broadcast save -> are the scopes telling you every time the trueth ???? I wrote that the DCP should have a Gamma of 2,6 ?????

can anybody please give some advice please....

thx
