Laptop monitor choice for photo editing with lightroom and photoshop

Hi,
i'm going to buy a laptop, mostly for photo editing with lightroom and photoshop use.
I'm in trouble with the display choice.
One laptop has LG LP156WF4 or AUO B156HAN01 display, that should be very similar matte ips display with 55%-60% coverage of AdobeRGB. You can find a review in the "Display" section of these link : http://www.notebookcheck.net/Review-Clevo-W650SJ-Schenker-M504-Barebones-Notebook.114329.0 .html
The other laptop hasAU Optronics B156HW01 V.4 Matte 95%, that is a TN matte display with  95% coverage of AdobeRGB. You can find a review in these link (the display should be the green bar): http://www.anandtech.com/show/4649/mythlogic-pollux-1400-clevos-w150hr-tested/6
My question is: which one is better for photo editing with photoshop and lightroom?
Someone says that ips is better because of the fidelity of color reproduction, view angles and contrast.
Someone, on the other side, says that the TN 95% is better because of the gamut%.
Can you help me?
Thanks,
Marco Grechi

Macbook pro is out of budget
Hp assistance said that in italy they don't sell laptop with dreamcolor (i'll call again tomorrow to be sure ) but i think that it would be out of budget (max 2000 euro).
They said that the best solution for me is the zbook 15 g2 (2300 euro), but they DON'T know brand and model of the display and if i can have SSD + HD inside the zbook 15 g2.
The laptop with the lg panel costs 1500 euro. the question is; "i know that the lg display is not the best, but is it almost sufficient for my use?". In this way i may save 500/800 to buy a separated display later.
I have read that dell xps 15 and dell precision m3800 have great display, but they are glossy and very reflective. Is it a big handicap?
Do you know the 3k 15,6" display Panasonic VVX16T020G00 ? It should be a 8-bit display with 72%NTSC gamut ( http://www.panelook.com/VVX16T020G00_Panasonic_15.5_LCM_parameter_22014.html )
Do you sugget me a 3k display for photo editing?
Thanks

  • Exporting size with Lightroom and Photoshop

    So I took a panoramic shot of denver.
    The file is a raw file. and at the end I need it to be able to be a 24"x72" canvas print.
    I need to edit in lightroom and then edit in photoshop. I have done this many times and works great!
    When do I need to set the file size to what I need to keep maximum quality?
    When I send it to photoshop, when I send it back to lightroom, or when I export the Lightroom PSD as a jpeg from Lightroom to finished file?
    Please help! Kind of weird for me ha!
    Thanks!

    No, Photoshop does not set any image size unless you do it manually in >Image >Image Size.
    PS "accepts" the resolution that is sent to it from LR. In LR you can specify which resolution you want for editing in PS (default is 240 ppi) - you do this in >Edit > Preferences > External Editing.
    Resolution is intricately related to image size. For instance: If an image comes out of the camera at 3000 x 2000 pixels. At 300 ppi that image would be 10" x 6.67". At 240 ppi the same image (without any upsampling or downsampling) would be 12.5" x 8.33". For quality printing you would typically aim at a resolution of 240 minimum.
    If your original image (the panorama after it has been stitched together) does not have enough ppi for a desired print of 24" x 72" at 240 dpi you have to enlarge the image either in PS (upsampling) or you have to specify the size in the Export dialog in LR. LR will then enlarge the image.

  • Problem downloading the student edition of Lightroom and Photoshop cs6

    I purchased the new lightroom and photoshop in August 2013. Because I purchased the student one I had to send a picture of my student ID card to prove I was a student and a bunch of other things to say which school I go to. Its now Feb 2014 and neither of them are downloaded to my computer and I never got a confirmation email back from adobe.
    When It gives me the option to put my serial number in the boxes I always run short.
    Has anyone else had this problem? please help me. I don't think I can return them now.
    Thank you

    You need to contact Adobe Support either by chat or via phone when you have serial number and activation issues.

  • Best hardware configuration for photo editing in Aperture and/or Photoshop

    I am looking to replace my existing iMac, and want to know best setup to handle photo editing. My current system (6 years old, 8GM RAM) does get bogged down some in Aperture.

    photoshop and video edit rely mostly on memory and IO speed
    a bit on cpu and less so on video chip (as those are useful mainly for 3d and mainly gaming 3d but a also a bit for pro 3d)
    so SSD or hybrid would help
    and 16GB mem
    and you don't really need the max cpu model but midrage is useful

  • I am having trouble with lightroom and photoshop being too slow.

    Currently I am using LR 5.6 64bit andCS5 64 bit. Is the programs are running too slow because I am using 64 bit? If so, how do I get the other versions. I just started having this problem with the new upgrades.
    Please if anyone knows what to do please answer right away. I have jobs that I need to get out.

    Thank you both for replying. My processor is 3.2 Ghz. Ram 8gig 64 bit operating. Size of files are 29.6m
    available Ram is set to 7170 range in MB i have set to 5019. I have the sync set to sync everything.
    When I am importing into lightroom a new scan card, Raw, Canon D 5 Mark II raw. my Lightroom changes to DNG. It can take several minutes to edit. LR will spin quite a while when I try to look at a file in library or develop module after the files have been imported to lightroom. I have my preferences set to hold for 30 days so it should not take so long for files to refocus when I close lightroom and then reopen later. When I bring photo into photoshop, it sometimes it will not open if I have another file open in Photoshop. It takes 30 seconds for a file to open in photoshop from Lightroom.When I zoom in on a photo in LR it takes up to 30 seconds to focus.

  • 32 Bit HDR Problem With Lightroom and Photoshop CS6

    Hello all:
    In following Julieanne's Adobe TV topic here ->  http://tv.adobe.com/watch/the-complete-picture-with-julieanne-kost/quick-tip-creating-32bi t-hdr-images-in-lr-41/ a problem arises when trying to save from Photoshop CS 6. According to Julieanne you hit ctrl-s so that PS saves the HDR image and then it should show up in Lightroom. What I have found is that hitting crtrl-s saves it as a PSD file which does automatically show up in Lightroom, however Lightroom but  can't read it. If I do a save-as, and select TIFF as the extension Lightroom will not automatically see the TIFF file. I have to synchronize the folder in order to have Lightroom import it.
    Why would Lightroom automatically see a PSD file (that is of no use) and not see the TIFF file?
    Is there a setting in PS that will change the preferences to save as a TIFF instead of a PSD file?
    Using Lightroom 4.2 and Photoshop CS6.
    Thanks,
    Terry

    Go to LR's preferences > External Editing tab and change the top pop-up to TIFF and you should be all set.

  • Photo editing capabilities: Lightroom vs Photoshop/Photoshop Elements

    Hi,
    I have a question about the features in lightroom. I'm not yet a photoshop user so I hope people can understand if I don't use the right terms. It seems from the web site that lightroom is a photo editor and a image file organizer. If I don't need a image file organizer is there any reason to buy lightroom instead of photoshop or photoshop elements. Does lightroom have image editing features that are not in photoshop elements or not in the full version of photoshop?
    Thanks
    Message title was edited by: Brett N

    Thanks again.  I think the biggest concern that I have at this point is how this catalog transfer process will deal with my PSE images that I have stored offline on DVDs.  Let me explain...
    To save disk space, my process is to import RAW files into PSE Organizer, tag them, rate them, then move the images to a DVD.  This allows me to see the image as a large thumbnail in the Organizer, complete with all the tags, but keeps the huge files off my hard drive and puts them on inexpensive, reliable media.  Then, if I ever need to access the full image, I simply put in the DVD and the full image is instantly available, where it can be moved back to the harddrive if needed for edits or printing.  I probably have 30 or so DVDs of images and the PSE organizer tracks all of them flawlessly.  I've even moved .psd files to DVD to free up harddrive space, and the Organizer still lets me know that I have that offline .psd file available and also the name of the DVD of where it lives.  I love this approach... keeping the big image files separate from the catalog (especially images that I rarely need access to, but don't want to remove from the catalog). I'd say 80% of my Organizer catalog is comprised of these offline images and having only the thumbnails in the catalog works great for me.   
    From your earlier replies (#9 and #13 above), it sounds like Lr won't transfer these thumbnails when I move the PSE Catalog to Lr.  If I need to move ALL of those offline images to my harddrive before I do the "Upgrade Catalog" command, that will be a huge problem.  I simply don't have the free space available.  So Ideally, I want to transfer the thumbnails, tags, metadata, and offline file location information from my PSE Organizer catalog to the Lr Organizer, and I would like to do that without having to load DVDs.  Is this possible?  If not, I haven't been able to find any procedure outlined anywhere that addresses this specific situation... Can it be done one DVD at a time?    Thanks.        

  • Windowserver suddenly hogs cpu with Lightroom and Photoshop

    I recently upgraded these software packages to 64bit and upgraded NIK plugins for each to the 64bit versions. Since then I've had problems with PS freezing while making adjustments using a NIK plugin (doesn't appear to be plug-in specific). Looking at the Activity Monitor I see windowserver up to 90+ cpu usage. Sometimes if I just wait it will recover, sometimes I have to shut everything down.
    Anyone seeing this problem while using this software and if so have you found a remedy? This never happened while using the 32bit versions of all these packages.

    My understanding is that windowserver is an OS X application independent of software used. My question is whether others have seen windowserver start hogging CPU time while this specific software was being used and any Mac remedies that solve the issue. It's not an Adobe question.

  • How to select paper type for Canon iP5000 with Leopard and Photoshop CS3.

    I have printed photographs quite happily for years on my iP5000 using PS7 and 10.X. However since installing Leopard and switching to PS CS3 I am unable to select paper type (glossy, matt, etc). Is this a 10.5 problem, or as I suspect a CS3 problem. Any suggestions would be appreciated.
    I can select paper type in other applications.

    I don't know if it is the same for your printer but with my Canon MP600 I experienced the same problem until I came across the fact that when Print is clicked there is a Blue Triangle on the right of the dialogue. Click this and the paper type etc is displayed.

  • Exporting photos edited in Lightroom

    Hi,
    I have made substantial editing to a photo in Lightroom. However, I do not know how to export the photo with all the edits. I know Lightroom saves the changes in sidecar files, however I do not know how to take a photo edited in Lightroom and export it (with editing) to another location.
    Cheers,
    reuelb

    Errrrr... File/Export (ctrl-shift-E) does that, doesn't it?

  • Will Lightroom and Photoshop CC work with Indesign/Illustrator/etc from older versions of CS installed on my Mac?

    if I subscribe to the Photo plan, will Lightroom and Photoshop CC output work with Indesign/Illustrator/etc from older versions of CS installed on my Mac?

    I currently have premiere cs4 and cs5 installed and have had no problems. I have noted on the forums here that some people were reporting problems. So the only way to realy know is make the plunge. I'm running win 7 pro.

  • Using and rec on external monitor for photo editing

    ON another forum someone said that the MBP has only a 6 bit output for color on it's laptop screen.
    Now what about running an external monitor, 6 or 8 bit for the MBP?
    I have to admit even though I use a monitor calibration for editing my pictures on the MBP I find I always get varying results. I sometimes use my old external crt a 20" mitsubishi for photo editing.
    What is a good external monitor to use with the MBP for Pro photos and will I get 8 bit color?

  • HELp! Best laptop for photo editing.. or would a PC be better?

    I'm looking to buy a new computer. Would love for it to be a laptop but a PC would be ok too.. Any information on which is best for photo editing.. hopefully a large volume of photo editing.. which ones already have photo programs installed on them? help!

    Well.... the biggest limiter will be how much you can spend...
    But, you need to look for a higher end processor and a fairly decent graphics card.
    No new computers come with any decent graphics program.
    If you like my post, or solution to your issue/question, go ahead and click on the little star by my name and/or accept the post as the Solution. It makes me happy.
    I'm NOT an employee of Best Buy, or Geek Squad, though I did work as an Agent for a year 5 years ago. None of my posts are to be taken as the official stance that Best Buy will take on your situation. My advice is just that, advice.
    Unfortunately, that's the bad luck of any electronic, there's going to be bad Apples... wait that's a horrible pun.

    Well, there is a whole world of free or affordable software out there like GIMP, PDPaint and similar. Otherwise if you want to stick with Adobe stuff signing up for the CC photography program would be the most cost-efficient way...
