Especially early on (in the Indian context) in the past decade, BenQ has been all about affordable, excellent LCD monitors, bringing new tech to the average consumer who wanted something more than what was available back then. Over the last few years, they have extended their line-up to professional monitors for graphic designers, video editors, and photographers as well, bringing in pro-level monitors at affordable prices, specially in comparison with other brands.
I have had the rather excellent SW271 on my desk for about a year now, and have gotten quite used to it. After a year, I can easily say it is among the very best monitors I have used so far. But when it comes to real estate in photography, I am old school. Bigger is almost certainly better. With BenQ’s flagship photographic monitor, the PhotoVue SW321C, there are very credible reasons for that, as we shall see.
