Hey guys. I'm in need of a 19" widescreen monitor for my preview screen when i'm editing video. I will be doing the compositing/editing/misc on my 20" imac screen, but since that has a TN panel, I would like to have a non TN panel for my preview screen. This will also be used to show clients their video when it is finished or close to finished.

Thanks.
 
You can get a used Apple Cinema Display 20 inches or something on ebay for a decent price. Those use IPS panels... contrast ratio is 700:1 which may be a bit low, but IPS panels tend to have lesser contrast ratios than other panels.

Also, the Dell 2005WFP I believe is an IPS panel and has no color banding problems at all associated with the 2007WFP. But, I think the contrast ratio may be 500:1 or something...

This thread has some monitors that are IPS panels but they are a bit bigger than 19 inches. http://www.hardforum.com/showthread.php?t=1313643
