Can you use the lcd monitor to view your shot on a Canon 5d?

Q. As oppossed to using the viewfinder? Is there a setting I have to change to turn the lcd monitor on while shooting?

A. The Canon EOS 5D does not have Liveview.

If you mean the 5D Mark II then it does, and check your manual to see how to turn it on. If you lost it you can download the full manual direct from the canon website.


What's the difference between these two monitors?
Q. I've tested out to different monitors SEPARATELY with a DVI cable on my computer.

They are both 23" Dell LED monitors. One gives exceptional picture quality. The other one is good, but just not as a bright nad vivid, though they are on the exact same settings as far as brightness, contrast, etc.

The first one is:
Dell S2340M 23” Flat Panel HD LED Monitor (1920x1080)

Case Count: 1
Color: Black
Contrast Ratio to 1: 1,000
Depth: 6.92 in.
Display Type: LED
Height: 15.7 in.
Number of HDMI Inputs: 1

Screen Aspect Ratio: 16:9
Screen Brightness: 250 Nit
Screen Size: 23 in.
Viewing Angle (Horizontal): 178 Degree

I've found this one to be absolutley excellent. The display output is very vivid and bright. I was quite impressed.

So what I don't understand how come the second one isn't as great, the second one being as follows, advertised as:

Dell ST2321L Black 23" 5ms HDMI LED Backlight Widescreen LCD Monitor 250 cd/m2 DC 7000000:1 (1000:1)

What am I missing?
Thanks.

At first I hooked them up as dual monitors, one with a DVI connection and the other HDMI. And that's when I noticed the stark difference.

So, then I thought maybe it had something to do with my graphics card. So as a test, I tested out the second monitor separately with just the DVI cable, no other monitor hooked up. But it still showed the same quality. I even used the VGA cable, and still it looked the same to me!

I even got someone else to look at it, to see what I was seeing, and we both noticed the difference. I adjusted the color brightness, contrast, color saturation, etc, but that didn't help any. And yes, all under the same lighting conditions.

So perhaps, you're right, something about the specs that's not listed or something with the viewing angles. I have no idea. It doesn't make sense to me.

A. The difference is panel type, which is what you should focus on when choosing a monitor. Most of the specs and features listed for monitors are just marketing gimmicks.

The S2340M uses a IPS panel and the ST2321L a TN panel. IPS panels are mainly used in premium displays and offer the best viewing angles and color reproduction of any other LCD panel type. TN panels are just the opposite, with narrow viewing angles and a limited color gamut.
