Great article indeed. Shed light on some features that I used to select monitors.

One related question: Does US always use interlaced signals and with 16-235 levels in broadcasting even though CRT tv sets are rare these days? I thought LCD or HDTV can take advantage of 0-255 to produce better image quality.

The newer cameras that implement the wider gamut (x.v.color?) do indeed.

To be honest I noted some pretty obvious errors in what this guy is saying. Yes the OLEDs turn right off when they're displaying black, sigh. Using a Nikon DSLR to check response time sounds pretty dodgy to me too. At 1/60th shutter speed he's possibly seeing more artifacts from the Nikon's CMOS sensors readout time than the displays refresh time. He also ignores that most manufacturers do use the NIST standard for response time which is 10% to 90%.

Bob.
