Has anyone had experience with this? exposure control. How well the resolution comes out. The manipulation and color adjustment possibilities are amazing. I know you can output to a slide and work that way. But the time it takes would hinder creativity.

I've never photographered a monitor but I have taken stills off of a
video from a TV screen and they work pretty much the same. The images
are updated at a rate of about 30 times (frames) per second, so in order
to keep the black raster line off of the exposure, you need to shoot
from a tripod at a speed LESS than 1/30 of a second. Meter and bracket
+/- EV.
