Last week, I described the thrilling viewing experience of the wide gamut 14.7-megapixel display of the late 2015 iMac 5K.
Last night I happened to be reviewing some of my Leica MM Type 246 black and white images and I was enthralled: I have never seen black and white look that good before. Jaw dropping in detail and contrast—no print can touch that visual impact of a transmissive display. The contrast of the iMac 5K display adds a whole bump up in visual impact over other types of displays.
Some black and white examples:
