p.1 #1 · Anyone using OLED monitors for Editing? Burn in issues:?


I currently use a VA panel (M32uc) for editing and gaming as I wanted to have better blacks and contrast than IPS but, of course, viewing angles are not great.
So I was looking at mini-LED IPS which there is like ONE good option it seems, or OLED.
The issue with OLED is of course, burn in issues with my tools opened on my monitor like 10 hours a day from different things I use.
I feel like I will always be stressing about burn in and going out of my way to prevent it.

Anyone using one?

I bought an Asus OLED monitor and returned it. The firmware would frequently crash the display and the only fix was to power off the monitor. OLED may be OK for gamers where the display is constantly changing but not a good choice for general use or editing.

I have a VIZIO 60" TV on the wall behind my computer desk. OLED came out after I bought this TV, so it's just a good quality TV and not with the enhanced imagery of OLED. It is attached to my computer as a second monitor. I haven't watched over the air TV in about 8 years, except for an occasional display of the NEWS and Weather on my wife's TV if it's playing as I walk by, so this TV isn't even hooked up for regular cable or over-the-air TV.. The VIZIO above my computer is connected to my computer to display every phot shot that I take in my studio, as it is downloaded into my computer. So anyone posing for portraits, etc. can see themselves seconds after I take each shot. I can quickly check this large screen image as I do the photo shoot as well, but I never attempt to use this TV for editing. I did do a color adjustment after buying it, to get it closer (but not perfect) to correct when setting it up though. I also watch streaming shows from the internet on it if I want to watch something when not using it for the studio work. It isn't, and never will be, good enough for accurate photo editing, but I do like it for it's ability to display every shot that I take for the model/subject to see within seconds after the shot is taken, because they quickly start using it as kind-of a delayed mirror, and improve their poses quickly as the photo shoot progresses. It has been a win for my studio for these reasons.
