    Thats a great video, just watched it and I notice that he has caused a bit of a stir on a certain Facebook page.... well what a pity. I was always under the impression that the Internet was for sharing information and I take my hat of to Gary for spreading the knowledge.

    How do you know if a Monitor is Wide gamut or not?

    I have a couple of Dell UP2716D monitors, they are superb, and don't have a glossy screen :) they are 100% Adobe RGB and 100% sRGB as well as two new colour spaces: 100% REC 709 and 98% DCI-P3 and they come calibrated with their own charts. Well worth that little bit extra.
