BenQ's PhotoVue AQColor Monitors are purpose designed for Photographic and Video work.  These are the simply best monitors BenQ offer.

These models all feature superb colour accuracy.  All support direct hardware calibration (i.e. calibration using the monitors internal, very high quality LUTs).  The AQColor programme means that BenQ first select the best of the best panels available.  They then put these panels through an intense factory calibration and quality control programme.  The result is superb colour accuracy, excellent uniformity, and monitors that excel in all aspects of colour reproduction.

These models all come with an included monitor hood (Eizo charge a couple of hundred extra for theirs!) - and with high quality ergonomic stands with plenty of adjustment potential (and of course all can be VESA mounted).   And they feature low blue light and anti-flicker Eye Care technologies as well. 

You can see the BenQ PhotoVue SW models offer the complete package to get you going with colour accurate work, and at very competitive pricing.

(BenQ also have a range of Content Creation 'Designer' monitors as well, should these models be overkill for your needs, or out of budget).

We have been BenQ's key supporter in the colour accurate market in Australia for the last 10 years - and see only a very bright future ahead.

We have sold - and just as importantly properly supported - over 70% of all BenQ PhotoVue Colour Accurate monitors in Australia.  Frankly, buying a BenQ Colour accurate monitor from anywhere else just doesn't make much sense!

We have an unmatched relationship with BenQ Australia, and also right back to the key BenQ engineers in Taiwan who actually develop these products. So you can be completely sure if you buy a BenQ monitor from Image Science you will simply get the best advice and support available - both before and after your purchase.

BenQ have experienced tremendous growth and success in the Photo/Video and Content Creator spaces in recent years.  They now offer a number of attractive, high performing screens at very competitive prices. BenQ colour accurate monitors are now internationally known as BenQ PhotoVue / DesignVue AQColor Monitors.

It is fair to say at this point that BenQ are more than likely the market leaders in colour accurate monitors worldwide. Thanks to their excellent relationship with us, BenQ have in particular seen massive growth in the Australian market with thousands of their SW and PV/PD monitors now out in the field and in daily use with both professional and amateur users.

The SW range is now BenQ's range designed for professional imaging - i.e. Photographic and Video work.
 

This range is BenQ's answer to the ColorEdge CS models from Eizo - featuring 10 bit input/panels, high bit depth/3D Look Up Tables (LUTs), Direct Hardware Calibration support, excellent colour accurate quality and general ergonomics.   The offer this quality and those features at a considerably more competitive price point than Eizo.  (BenQ don't yet have a range that competes with the ColorEdge CG/CG-X models, with their integrated calibration solution).

There are currently 4 models in this range:

Our personal favourite BenQ PhotoVue model for some time has been the BenQ SW321C.  Big, beautiful, and the first model to feature BenQ's new generation screen coating, it has become a real favourite at Image Science (and is used as the primary monitor on our second services station).   At 32 inches, it's simply massive, and if you want a large work area, or to show off your work to your clients - it's a fabulous choice.  We have written an extensive evaluation of the SW321C.

In mid 2023, BenQ released their truly fabulous BenQ SW272U 4K model - this is probably our new favourite!  It's very much on par with the most popular model from recent years (the Eizo CS2740) - but distinctly cheaper.  BenQ Have really hit it out of the park with this one - it's a massive improvement to their range and we have no hesitation recommending it.  Read out BenQ SW272U evaluation.
 

The SW272U is complemented by another fantastic new model - the very very similar BenQ SW272Q.  Basically the same thing as the 4K model, but with a 2.5K panel, and a very affordable price tag.  This is the best lower budget colour accurate monitor on the market today, and the minimum level we think anyone interested in (or enthousiastic about...) high quality imaging work, should aspire to.

Finally, the entry level option is the BenQ SW242Q - whilst not a huge monitor, it's colour accuracy is world's above typical desktop monitors.  Perfect for students, in-studio monitors, and folks just dipping their toes into the world of colour accuracy.  Evaluation here.  Unless your budget is very tight, or you really need a small monitor, we do strongly encourage you to look to the SW272Q above if you can, as these days a 24 inch is really beginning to feel a bit small for most people, and you will probably soon find yourself wishing for something bigger!
