Software and Display Decisions
Start with the job, expose the trade-offs, and buy only the capability the complete workflow can use.
Start with the question.
Compare photo editors, monitors, ports, resolution, and workflow requirements using named criteria instead of universal rankings.
Compare Lightroom and Capture One by cataloging, tethering, layered control, mobile workflow, licensing, and real use cases—with a transparent decision tool.
↗CT-0010What Can a USB-C Port Actually Do?Decode a USB-C connection by separating connector shape from data protocol, charging power, video mode, cable rating, dock, and host support.
↗CT-0011HDMI Versions Without the Marketing ConfusionMatch source, cable, receiver, and display by required resolution, refresh rate, HDR, VRR, and audio features instead of chasing version labels.
↗CT-0012Resolution, Pixel Density, and Viewing DistanceConnect pixel dimensions, physical screen size, pixels per inch, viewing distance, interface bandwidth, and scaling without eye-limit myths.
↗CT-0013Choosing Monitor Size and ResolutionChoose a monitor from desk distance, usable workspace, pixel density, operating-system scaling, refresh needs, HDR evidence, and port limits.

↗GLOSSARYWorking vocabulary
Terms that make
the system legible.
- Pixel density
- The number of display pixels per physical unit of length, commonly pixels per inch.
- DisplayPort Alt Mode
- A USB-C capability that carries DisplayPort video when the host, port, and cable support it.
- Tethered capture
- Sending photographs from a camera directly to a connected computer during a shoot.
