Hello Sir, Epic video 👌 Epic channel 😃 Congratulations. I really need your opinion: I'm undecided between the Asus Proart 279cv , BenQ PD2705U and Lg 27un880-b, based on your experience and knowledge, which of the three do you think is the best buy? I'm going to use this monitor for web design, web content, programming and also for watching movies and series. My office has a window that is usually open. The window is 4 meters away from the monitor. What do you think? Thanks in advance
You still have to calibrate the monitor occasionally. When you do calibrate, brightness to get accurate colors are way lower than 100%. That means you should be in a dark room as when calibrating, and color correcting.. Some people, (not me) even put up 18% grey paint or fabric. I just do grading ,if important, without much light in the room. Your eyes will adapt to warm or blue lights and mess up your color vision. Ie warm or cool lights look white. Human Eyes, auto White Balance.
Yes, you're right and thank you for sharing these tips! In my case I've covered my editing station with black walls around and I generally turn on a 5500k light to suppress parassite light, this helps quite a lot.
Ciao ho comprato questo monitor ma non riesco a capire come fare funzionare le entrate USB. Ho provato a collegare direttamente il mouse wireless ma non funziona. Premessa io uso un portatile.
I have a question… Which color profile do you set during grading of your footage? Rec709 or sRGB? And why? (i set my EIzo monitor at sRGB for stills and for videos because I believed the results would be watched on UA-cam in sRGB anyway…).
I'M SO GLAD I STUMBLED upon this VIDEO AND COMMENT... because I just set up this monitor and I was wondering the SAME THING. NOW, I can just leave this on sRGB as well for stills and video color grading. THANKS to you both. I was really having a slight problem since Rec709 allows you to adjust Brightness but... I don't want that to affect the color grading process whilst sRGB doesn't allow the brightness to be adjust which is understandable due to its colour space. Then I guess for anything else not related to editing, just gonna go for standard. Thanks guys and IF EVER anyone has any other tips.. please COMMENT here and reply cause I'd like to hear them as well or suggestions! THANKS!!
Scusami io vorrei acquistarlo ma non riesco a trovare molte info sul web.. Sapresti dire quanto spazio DCI-P3 copra?? C'è il preset specifico DCI-P3. Grazie mille
Ciao! Da quello che ho capito, il monitor e' 8bit quindi per lo spazio DCI-P3 il monitor usa una LUT. Il preset DCI-P3 e' presente e viene riprodotto bene.
Ciao Luca, volevo chiederti: cosa ne pensi della copertura AdobeRGB di questo monitor che risulta essere sostanzialmente inferiore rispetto ad altri modelli? Si nota tanto la differenza? Grazie
Great video that's helpful and straight to the point Luca! Have you tried the DCI-P3 mode on this monitor? It seems accurate for sRGB and Rec. 709 but I can't seem to find much info on the DCI-P3 mode or the coverage. I'm used to the Display P3 on an iMac and while I know this monitor is not as sharp, I'm more concerned about color. Any input would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!
For the DCI-P3 the monitor uses a LUT, because it's not a 10 bit monitor...I think you should look for a true calibrated 10 bit monitor if you need to work with bigger colour space. Thanks for watching Charles and sorry for the late reply
@@LucaBono.Studio Ah I didn't know it used a LUT for that. This helps along with your video review and I'm still considering it along with a few other 27" monitors. Thanks Luca!
Hi, i would like to understand if the problem you are talking about, light leakage is a defect in your monitor or if all monitors are like this. someone else has this problem ?
Hi sorry I'm looking for a new 4k monitor for a better college experience when it comes to reading, and I was wondering what "Reading mode" does as a preset on the PA279CV? There's more info on the Benq e-paper mode on their website and it seems very well thought-out, while Asus just says it reduces blue light. So I was just wondering if Asus does just as good and infos are simply missing on the website or I should go for the Benq?? I know it's a weird questions but thanks very much if you could clarify this for me.
Hey buddy, yes the read mode will have slightly less blue light....that's it! I don't know if the Benq is better or not honestly...maybe check them in a shop side by side!
@@LucaBono.Studio Hey Bono...recalibration of screen tutorial could be useful if you've got the time at some point. Nonetheless...enjoyed the content. ah saalute
Ciao Luca, volevo chiederti se noti un calo di luminosità ai bordi e disomogeneità dei colori. Specialmente se guardi immagini bianche a tutto schermo. Grazie
Ciao! No, onestamente non vedo un calo di luminosità ai bordi e disomogeneità dei colori quando visualizzo una pagina totalmente bianca....neanche la fotocamera li nota con lo spot meter.
grazie, bel video. sono quasi convinto a prenderlo, per usarlo come monitor esterno per il mio macbook pro M1 del 2020. Hai esperienza con questo tipo di setup? mi pare di capire che tu usi un pc fisso. In giro leggo che potrebbe portare il mac a scaldare molto..come fanno anche altri monitor. saluti!
Ciao Matteo, grazie! Si io uso il fisso, ma credo che il surriscaldamento avvenga se alimenti il MacBook dal monitor...ma non ho idea se sia vero oppure no, mi spiace.
A picture of the color checker, waveforms, vectorscope on the PC. And I match the colors with my color checker, holding it in my hands under 5500k light
Why not? The speaker is there and it has a bad quality...it's a fact. If in the future the manufacturers will produce monitors with decent audio speakers, like for the TV and for the same price, wouldn't you be happy?
I always think that audio speakers on a monitor is just a waste of money for us professionals who need this kind of reliable monitors to actually work better. I had one like 10 years ago (other brand) and it's speakers were always just useless for me, I've never considered bad devices audio when working though... And I don't think I will ever 😅
@@LucaBono.Studio This is so complicated. I now also found that it’s HDR10, and maybe “PQ”, but HLG is not mentioned. I wonder if I should buy an HLG monitor? The Panasonic camera is HLG and many TVs are HLG, so it comes to my mind that using HLG would be a good idea.
As far as I remember the HLG is an hybrid log gamma, this means that if you display the video on HDR TV you'll see HDR content, while if you display the video on a rec709 TV you'll see rec709 content. If you can buy a true 10bit monitor, it will be better...but probably more expensive as well
Why the hell would you have that lamp on your face. Makes me wonder how you want us to think of your expertise. That thing may be a light or a flash but everyone knows that that light is not a practical in the scene, and so little info about the monitor. Don't confuse PA278 with PA279. better see for yourself to learn
Hello Joseph, if you are seeing negativity in my video, then it wasn't my intention...sorry about it. The monitor is working great except for the two problems I've mentioned in the video. If you're not so sure about the purchase, you should check it in a shop by yourself...for me it's working fine. In the video I'm talking about the PA279CV, it's written in the title of the video, in my monitor and in my receipt... I don't know anything about the PA278, sorry.
This is exactly how NOT to do a video. No view of the product or him using it. No adequate examples of what he’s talking about. Does he even own the display? What was the point of him making this? DOWNVOTED!
Hey buddy! The monitor is ok, except the two problems I've mentioned in the video. Imho doesn't make much sense to show an operating screen filmed with the camera, but I'll keep in mind your tips for future video reviews. Thanks for sharing your feedback, I appreciate honesty.
If you have found this video useful, I'll really appreciate a like to the video and subscribe in the channel to support my work. Ciao!

Hey. Were you able to connect this with USB-C. I cannot get mine to work on MacBook or Win 10 with USB C. Thanks man.
Ciao ho comprato questo monitor ma non riesco a capire come fare funzionare le entrate USB. Ho provato a collegare direttamente il mouse wireless ma non funziona. Premessa io uso un portatile.
Which mode is the best for editing photos with this Asus proart monitor ? i would say srgb but how about dc3 mode ?
I use this monitor just in sRGB or Rec709...all the other options aren't very accurate in terms of colors.
I have a question… Which color profile do you set during grading of your footage? Rec709 or sRGB? And why? (i set my EIzo monitor at sRGB for stills and for videos because I believed the results would be watched on UA-cam in sRGB anyway…).
Hey Vladislav! I also leave it on sRGB... I never delivery content for broadcast or cinema distributions 😉 thank you for watching!

Hiya! I'm very late to the party. Asus website tech specs on this monitor state Display Colors : 1073.7M (10 bit). Is this not the case?
Disregard - I'm just reading up on 8-bit + FRC versus true 10-bit monitors. What a gauntlet of information! Thanks for your review.

According to the specifications from Asus website: HDR (High Dynamic Range) Support : HDR10
I can display HDR content in this monitor ;)
