Gera Posted December 30, 2017 Share Posted December 30, 2017 Will there be a noticeable difference when editing in a monitor hooked with VGA compared to HDMI? Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brian Posted December 30, 2017 Share Posted December 30, 2017 It will be like going from a VHS Tape to a Blu-Ray DVD, so yes...please use a DIGITAL connection. (i.e. DVI-D, HDMI, CablePort, etc.) A VGA port is an Analog connection, which has been around since 1989 and is meant for a CRT (Tube) Monitor up to 20". Today's fancy flat screens ARE NOT MEANT for a VGA connection, and you will get better colors, better contrast, and have a sharper display...which is a good thing when it comes to photo-editing. It frustrates me to no end when I see people using a VGA port and have access to Digital Connections and all they need is a $10 (or less) video cable to make their displays so much better. Sometimes, the blasted cable is included in the box and never gets hooked up because people have always used that VGA connector and never question why the other cable was included. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
