The color range of a computer is defined by the term color depth, which is the number of colors that the equipment can display, given its hardware. The most common normal color depths you"ll see are 8-bit (256 colors), 16-bit (65,536 colors), and 24-bit (16.7 million colors) modes. True color (or 24-bit color) is the most frequently used mode as computers have attained sufficient levels to work efficiently at this color depth.

LCD monitors struggle with color and speed. Color on an LCD has three layers of colored dots that make up the final pixel. To display a color, a current is applied to each color layer to generate the desired intensity that results in the final color. The problem is that to get the colors, the current must move the crystals on and off to the desired intensity levels. This transition from the on-to-off state is called the response time. For most screens, it rates around 8 to 12 milliseconds.

The problem with response time becomes apparent when LCD monitors display motion or video. With a high response time for transitions from off-to-on states, pixels that should have transitioned to the new color levels trail the signal and result in an effect called motion blurring. This phenomenon isn"t an issue if the monitor displays applications such as productivity software. However, with high-speed video and certain video games, it can be jarring.

Because consumers demanded faster screens, many manufacturers reduced the number of levels each color-pixel renders. This reduction in intensity levels allows the response times to drop and has the drawback of reducing the overall range of colors that the screens support.

Color depth was previously referred to by the total number of colors that the screen can render. When referring to LCD panels, the number of levels that each color can render is used instead.

High-speed LCD monitors typically reduce the number of bits for each color to 6 instead of the standard 8. This 6-bit color generates fewer colors than 8-bit, as we see when we do the math:

Why multiply groups of three? For computer displays, the RGB colorspace dominates. Which means that, for 8-bit color, the final image you see on the screen is a composite of one of 256 shades each of red, blue, and green.

There is another level of display that is used by professionals called a 10-bit display. In theory, it displays more than a billion colors, more than the human eye discerns.

Even though the graphics card renders upwards of a billion colors, the display"s color gamut—or range of colors it can display—is considerably less. Even the ultra-wide color gamut displays that support 10-bit color cannot render all the colors.

Professional displays often tout 10-bit color support. Once again, you have to look at the real color gamut of these displays. Most consumer displays don"t say how many they use. Instead, they tend to list the number of colors they support.

The amount of color matters to those that do professional work on graphics. For these people, the amount of color that displays on the screen is significant. The average consumer won"t need this level of color representation by their monitor. As a result, it probably doesn"t matter. People using their displays for video games or watching videos will likely not care about the number of colors rendered by the LCD but by the speed at which it can be displayed. As a result, it is best to determine your needs and base your purchase on those criteria.

Even though the difference between the two of them doesn’t seem huge, there are some things a video editor can’t live without. In the past years, technology experienced a huge jump, and if 5 years ago we were limited to filming at 8-bit at most, some of the newest cameras can even provide 16-bit recordings.

While 10-bit reaches 1024 colors per channel, 8-bit will only reach 256 per channel. This means that 8-bit files will display 16.7 million colors, while 10-bit will display about 1.07 billion, which is a lot more! Then we get to 16-Bit that"s used in RED Cameras, which reaches 65,536 colors per channel, which totals to around 281 Trillion possible colors!

Think about it this way. Instead of having a flawless transition and seeing all the color variations on a 10-bit monitor, you will see the approximate colors on an 8-bit monitor, meaning that it won’t be as accurate. If you’re a professional, then you can’t be working on an 8-bit monitor, as you need to have the best color grading process, with the most accurate colors.

Now, something that’s very important about the color grading process, is the calibration of your monitor. It’s important that you see the colors correctly, as you may color grade a video or photo and then it shows much different on peoples mobiles, laptops and print.

It"s important to calibrate your monitor if you are color grading, editing photos, graphic design or anything to do with editing colors. Especially being a professional, you want the client or person viewing to see the correct colors you intended to show. If your monitor isn"t calibrated, then the colors aren"t going to be the same as what the other person is seeing. Especially if they have a calibrated iPhone or mobile.

When using LUTs it"s really important to have a calibrated monitor to see the correct colors that the creator intended. It"s as simple as that. So we highly recommend to calibrate your monitor if you have an external monitor.

If you"re a Filmmaker or Photographer, then you should 100% get a 10-Bit monitor. Most cameras shoot 10-Bit or higher now, especially Photography DSLR cameras averaging around 12-Bit. So why not experience the most potential out of your cameras colors? Using an 8-Bit monitor you will only be seeing around 5% at most of what the camera is producing.

A 10-bit monitor right now is the standard, as the 8-bit is getting old and we’re set to embrace the 12-bit monitors in the near future. When you make such an investment, you need to think about what the future will bring, and right now, 8-bit monitors are a little outdated.

When looking for monitors on the market, there are some leading brands right now with awesome monitors. Just make sure you find a true 10-bit monitor as there are many that claim 10-bit but they are actually 8-bit + FRC.

Also color checker cards are amazing on set, so the colorist can accurately sync up the white balance and colors in the color grading suite. You can find a few great color checker cards which are compatible with DaVinci Resolve below.

Get a 10-Bit monitor if you are a content creator and also want to appreciate viewing movies, series and everything in 10-Bit. Remember 8-Bit is only 16.7million colors while 10-Bit is 1.07billion!
