I've wanted to get a large LCD TV to plug into my Macbook Pro, so that I could edit a little easier. After some research, I kept reading is that it's suicide to try and color correct on it. And that even using my laptop screen or an Apple Cinema Display was still not good enough (even if I were to end up spending several hundred on a matrox mx02 mini).
Long story short, suddenly I shouldn't be color correcting unless I spend thousands on a broadcast quality monitor or something of the sort.
So two questions:
1) Is this a case of big-budget production reasoning, where you can afford to split hairs? Or is this crucial to anybody working with video?
2) Even if you monitor isn't true to color, can't you just CC off of the waveform monitors, etc?
Thanks for any help!
