CRT to LCD/TFT question on quality

[rameshuk]

Hi.

I have a 4 year old iiyama Vision Master Pro CRT.
Great Screen for video/Photoshop work.


I have noticed quite a few 20-22" widescreen TFTs are around the £250 mark.

How does a mid range CRT compare with the new generation of TFTs.

How much would you say I need to spend to match the quality.

The reason for the upgrade is to free up deskspace.

Anyone done a similar upgrade.
Any Professional recommendations ?

Cheers.

This is the one I'm interested in:

iiyama Prolight E2200 WS

www.iiyama.co.uk/default.asp?SID=&LNG=EN&NAV=236&PCAT=2&PROD=7155&CE=F&PARAMS=DATASHEET

it supports the res you recommend but at a low refresh rate:

1680 x 1050 / 65, 60 Hz

My current CRT is running at 120 Hz ! I spend 6 - 9 hours /day staring at it.

What about refresh rates being a lot lower on TFTs/LCDs

thanks for the info so far. Much appreciated.
