I have dual 27 inch 4K. I sit at my desk, and it is quite OK for general work and movies etc. If I increased this to 40 inches I might find too much head travel for my liking. Dual 27" is about my max. I might add a 40" 4K for movies and position it as the left hand display and move it back 6 inches or so. I first went to dual trinitron displays in 1985-6. These were huge, depth-wise and I upgraded to 24" in the late 80's and then went to flatscreen of the same size and to 27 " 1200 x 1024 (I think).
I deal in maps and geological work, so I always pushed the envelope. I do not think I will go over 4K for a while. These 8K units that are looming - I do not think I can actually make effective use of them.
- swiftcoder 7y agoThe trick I’ve found for using the 40” as a monitor is just to sit further back from it - I have a very deep desk, such that the monitor fills approximately the same field of view as a 32” monitor would at normal distance.
- aurizon 7y agoI wonder, mimic a window by putting a 4K inserted into the wall cavity so it is flush, add curtains, and then use a 4K can to shoot the live view you would see through that space, show a visitor, then switch the feed - looks like magic...
