A place to politely discuss the tools, technique and culture of photography.

This is not a good place to simply share cool photos/videos or promote your own work and projects, but rather a place to discuss photography as an art and post things that would be of interest to other photographers.

I feel strange even typing out the title to this. After 15 years of using a Mac to edit my photos, my tech husband has convinced me to switch over (after trying his PC to edit the last few sessions I’ve had). He is building it for me, but I am in charge of choosing a monitor and I am CLUELESS! He gave me too many options. 🙃 So I’m hoping there’s someone that’s able to personally vouch for quality of color for images. I have narrowed it down to a 27” I believe. Just need some help on what kind! Bonus points if someone has switched from Apple and understands how nervous I am 😂 Thank you!

As someone who did editing on fancy Macs and PCs costing >$10k at work, let me just give you a heads-up. Mac is far more stable. Any M2 should be decent for photo editing. I've had Adobe programs crash maybe once in a year when editing on a Mac. On the Windows, it crashes every 3 days if I'm lucky.
