Designed specifically for the creative professional, the 30-inch Apple Cinema HD Display provides more space for easier access to all the tools and palettes needed to edit, format and composite your work. The Cinema HD features an active-matrix liquid crystal display that produces flicker-free images that deliver twice the brightness, twice the sharpness and twice the contrast ratio of a typical CRT display. Unlike other flat panels, it's designed with a pure digital interface to deliver distortion-free images that never need adjusting. With over 4 million digital pixels, the display is uniquely suited for scientific and technical applications such as visualizing molecular structures or analyzing geological data. Offering accurate, brilliant color performance, the Cinema HD delivers up to 16.7 million colors across a wide gamut allowing you to see subtle nuances between colors from soft pastels to rich jewel tones. A wide viewing angle ensures uniform color from edge to edge. Apple's ColorSync technology allows you to create custom profiles to maintain consistent color onscreen and in print. The result: You can confidently use this display in all your color-critical applications. Housed in an aluminum design, the display has a very thin bezel that enhances visual accuracy. It features two FireWire 400 ports and two USB 2.0 ports, making attachment of desktop peripherals, such as iSight, iPod, digital and still cameras, hard drives, printers and scanners, even more accessible and convenient. The Cinema HD features a single cable design with elegant breakout for the USB 2.0, FireWire 400 and a pure digital connection using the industry standard Digital Video Interface (DVI) interface. The DVI connection allows for a direct pure-digital connection to Apple's latest aluminum Power Mac and PowerBook systems, as well as to Windows-based desktops.

Reviews & Ratings for 30" Apple Cinema HD LCD Display I purchased this monitor at the end of 2004 for $3400. I have been using it 4 to 8 hours a day since then. This monitor has never given me one problem. I still love it and have never minded the fact I paid so much for it. I am not rich, by the way. Now, at a price of $1800, it is a no brainer and I would buy another without hesitation. I primarily use it for photography but it's fantastic no matter what you're doing on it... and movies look great. I couldn't be happier with it.

Outstanding image quality and color

Pros: excellent quality image, perfect color balance, amazing tool for photogs Cons: expensive price tag
Reviews & Ratings for 30" Apple Cinema HD LCD Display I previously used a Samsung monitor in my photography work and it just never got the colors right no matter how frequently I calibrated it. I switched to the Apple monitor and it's amazing. This monitor is HUGE and barely fits on my desk because it's a credenza type setup. When I use it for business work (not photography), I am able to blow up a document and have two full size pages on screen with easy to read text sizes.
For photography, this is by far the best monitor I've ever used. It's worth its high price tag for pros.
