- I'm pretty satisfied with the ProArt monitor but LG also has some pretty nice OLED displays for a good price.

This was the video I was just looking for. Very helpful. Thank you
I was originally looking at the Asus proart line, im a colorist and recent finished coloring my first feature and am now moving to the second feature. I was looking at flanders as well, however it seemed like a lot of money for something that at my level just wasn’t worth it quite yet.
I considered one of the mini LED models, but many forums have had a lot of angry users return them, both the model in your video and the model that peaks at 1600 nits as well. So i figured i’d stay away from those. It also helps that I’m already an OLED user, I use my LG C1. However I’d prefer to keep that as my client viewing monitor when a client is in house, I try to use it little as possible since it’s also my main tv for everything else I do like game and watch sports.
I think I’d be interested in the pa32dc, it actually has that PQ curve function so you can use it for hdr grading under 600 knits very accurately, although I don’t do HDR work yet it would be nice to use it to get a better understanding of how it works. However I am curious if you’ve seen news about the new pa32dcm, no release or price yet, but appears to be the upgrade to this display, 700 knits peak brightness as well, could be very interesting and bring us very close to real hdr grading on OLED at a semi low price
Super helpful video!
Great Video
Thanks
You did a good job.
Great video! What is the model of the smaller widescreen monitor? Seems like a great monitor to use for scopes
Its the PA147CDV, let me know if you can get it to display scope cause I can't get it to do so haha
Thanks for making this very helpful video! I am planning to get a Asus PA32UCX/UCR soon to use it on a MacPro via BM decklink. As seen from your decklink video, could you share your experience on how to hardware calibrate the Asus monitor under this setup?
Best way to do it is to use their proprietary software to calibrate because it will work with the hardware calibration to store your icc calibration profile. ASUS calibration studio is not very good with Macs last I checked, so you might need to do the calibration a few times.
@@DannyGan Thanks for the reply! I am wondering if using the software to calibrate, is it still calibrating the signal from the OS? Will the stored calibrated ICC suitable for the signal coming out directly from the decklink?
would love to know if you got any information from asus about the ProArt Display PA147CDV on time of release
new subscriber pliz share the overlay burn its so nice
I would never, ever, ever buy a 4000$ monitor for sRGB work.
What he missed (although shown in the animation from Asus) is that it is also has 99% DCI-P3, 99% Adobe RGB and 80% Rec. 2020. DCI-P3 being a Cinema Standard, thus working amazingly accurate on color gamut representation for color grading, for example.
Absolutely. You don't need that level of brightness or accuracy for sRGB. $500 monitors are ideal for that. Only cinematographers need better.
Hi Danny, thanks for the review of these 3 monitors. I am planning to buy Asus PA279CV as my first ProArt monitor soon as I am a video editor that also became interested in color grading. I have a few questions about it though:
Do you need to set project color management differently in DaVinci Resolve other than usual (in my case it's DaVinci YRGB, DaVinci Wide Gamut timeline color space and display output Rec.709 Gamma 2.4)?
Can monitor be used in Resolve for grading right after it is out of the box and it is set to Rec.709 in settings as it is said that it is already calibrated, because I don't have a color calibrator?
Do you need to buy any other components from BMD in order to display true colors within Resolve?
Is display really 10 bit when set in NVIDIA control panel if it is not already set, or is it 8 bit + FRC?
I would use it for deliveries mostly to YT and other social media.
Thank you very much in advance. Keep up the good work. 👍
1. No.
2. Sure, but its not accurate.
3. Ultra Studio Mini Monitor 3G or Decklink Mini Monitor 4K
4. No, it's 8bit FRC
Anything is fine for web delivery, if you or your client is not too peticular about colour accuracy. If you are, then you'll need to invest
Take My money Asus, you tease me with a wow things 😮
Considering the PA27DCE-K or the PA27UCX-K for grading 4k footage for CZcams. Any preferences here or anything I need to know before deciding which one to get?
Also, since you are Color Grading a lot, why did you buy the Micro Panel instead of the Mini Panel (Grading Panels from BMD)? Just curious :)
ASUS is coming up with monitors quicker than I can keep up with 🫠 OLED is definitely a better choice in terms of viewing experience. I would go for it.
Why micro? The prices in my country is 4x of the US. So I opted for the micro to start. And also my current table is not big enough for a mini, maybe when I move to a studio I will make the upgrade. But function-wise, the micro is good enough for most of what I do.
@@DannyGan Okey got it :) Im also considering an Eizo CG because they have built in Calibration. What do you think of them?
Ah yea makes sense, i couldd get the Micro for 700 and the mini for 1700, i guess the Mini would be worth it then?
Great video. Looks like Asus 4k OLED flickers pretty bad. About every youtube I watched on it flickers like that.
It does seem like it. But it's all good in real life. The PA32UCX also has a strong magenta shift in-camera, but no signs while looking at it. Won't be much of a problem unless you film your monitors a whole lot.
@@DannyGan I believe the flickering can affect your eye health even if you don't see it with the naked eyes. Every monitor flickers technically, however with this monitor it appears the bright also flickers. Human eyes is slow to react to a brightness change so it can appear stead brightness to a naked eyes. Well, I'm not an eye doctor, so my common sense may not mean much.
@klaymoon1 I know this is very late, but it's likely flickering due to the shutter speed of the camera not matching up with a slightly off refresh rate on the monitor, like 59.97 hz. I don't believe it should be flickering like a dying florescent light or anything like that in real life, it should just be appearing that way through the video.
@@clerklymantis4661 and the camera is 30fps (or 29.97 or whatever). The OLED's must have a faster response time so the cameras sensor actually sees the sites turn off, where as the backlit pixels do a - relatively - slow fade? Possibly use a longer shutter speed to solve it, like 1/30th.
So the PA279CV is not stable for his colors? I'm about to buy a PA329CV. That would be a deal breaker for me. 😆
For the price, you can’t really expect too much
Go for the LG 32UN880 if you still wanna stick to the same budget
How loud is the fan on the mini led monitor? I'm considering getting the ASUS ProArt Display PA27UCX-K 27 and its hard to find a review on it... also any issues with the mini led panel?
I don't hear any fan noise for the whole year I've been using it. Only biggest issue is the halo coming from brighter spots that I mentioned in the video. And viewing angle is limited to 45° at best
@@DannyGan Hm, I wonder if it's different for the 27 inch version possibly, I've heard some reddit comments mention it but just too little known about the 27 inch version. I'm still a bit far out from buying it but am looking to get it one day.
Hello. Please tell me, does this PA32UCX-PK monitor have high-frequency flicker, which is typical for other mini-LED monitors?
No visible flicker during my 2 years of using it
Hey, one question, I recently bought the ASUS 4K ProArt PA32UCR-K which is very similar to the PA32UCX but I noticed the top left and top right get darker and it's even difficult to read the File and Edit buttons on the corner.
The colors are perfect in the center but somehow my monitor is not that even on the sides. IPS is not that perfect I mean. I'm going to switch to the OLED monitor but my question is... Did you notice any kind of synthetic smell, like a new car interior smell, or a chemical smell coming from the monitor? the thing is I'm allergic to those smells and when I use my monitor I have to keep all the windows open or I get super sick. My hands start to shake and also get numb. It is the first time I had those kinds of strong smells from a monitor or a computer. I hope the OLED as being thinner and different technology doesn't have that problem. Cheers from Japan!
I think you better return the monitor or contact ASUS directly. Definitely something wrong with the hardware. Mine works just fine minus the drawbacks of a backlit LCD panel.
I have similar reactions because of office chairs off-gasing the chemical flame retardant that those chairs are soaked-in, but I had never heard of a monitor having off-gasing. Wouldn't surprise me if they started putting these toxic flame retardant chemicals in the plastic frame of the monitor or something like that... In the past I had to return several of those off-gasing chairs, and at work I would get dizzy and my lips would get numb because of the chairs with the chemicals there... I called the government agency that regulates health and stuff, and they said that in Europe (I'm in Canada) that flame retardant chemical product they put in office chairs, IS BANNED! But not in Canada!!! WTF?? So have you found a solution to your health reaction to the monitor? Or was it from an office chair maybe?
I currently have the PA279CRV. Does it need colour calibration and what's the best way to go about it? Thanks!
ANY monitor you buy is gonna need calibration if you care about color accuracy. Just a good rule to live by.
@@DannyGan OK thanks. So something like the Calibrite Display Plus HL Colorimeter? Or do you have any other recommendations/what do you use? Cheers!
Yes, the Pro or Plus is plenty good enough for Pro-sumer displays.
good work danny , but I will suggest you to show things more instead of just telling, I mean show more of the blooming by shooting your self and show the color difference, show the peak brightness and show the text clarity. it will make your video much more creditable and amazing to watch. keep up the amazing work
appreciate the comment
Why do you need to caliberate the monitor if it's already caliberated from the factory?
You’ll get far better accuracy if you recalibrate it, it’s no secret 😗
@@DannyGan I see, I'm a photographer and I just usually use my laptop screen, ofcoures I caliberate my laptop screen because it has a none caliberated screen. I recently bought Asus Proart because I was thinking that I don't have to caliberate. Ohh well...
what is that small display in front of 24?
PA147CDV, I have a CZcams Shorts video about it on my channel
ASUS ProArt display PA32UCK for $2000?
I just did a quick search on Amazon, seems like the PA32UCX-PK is selling for $3899. To clarify, I'm converting from MYR9000 in my country so that would be about $2000 in USD.
Why does sRGB matter to you? As a colorist, shouldn't you care more about rec.709/2020/DCI-P3?
rec709 is a pretty small color space, most monitors can cover that. As for rec2020 and DCI-P3, they are too huge, the highest coverage it can get is maybe 99%. An analogy that I heard from somewhere is, its like jumping a cliff and making it 99% of the way, you'll still fall. So basically you can't grade in rec2020 unless you have a 100% rec2020 monitor. But the 99% does tell you how close you can get to 100%. sRGB is a perfect balance of usability and accuracy if I'm just gonna do a short video.
Are any of these gloss finish? If not, than what’s the point of having a high end monitor if you’re only going to dull it with the matte finish
The PA32DC is a gloss finish, the other 2 might be all little matte
Anti-reflection coatings are your answer. These monitors have to resist other sources of light from going into the monitor and messing with the color accuracy or lights being reflected on the screen surface causing brighter spots to be present.
Kinda sad how much brighter the 400 dolllar version is compared to more expensive models.
Brightness doesn't really come to priority unless it's for HDR where you need 1000nits. Also, do note that the camera might misrepresent the brightness due to shooting angles and such. Best to check the spec sheet to gauge their individual brightness.
PA 32Dc is fail product.. Asus stopped tge production for that oled..
Local dimming is the worst invention ever. If I get this monitor, I'll turn it off. Is it still good with local dimming turned off?
