#Windows monitor portrait mode windows
Monitors in the EIZO ColorEdge range feature monitor-side support for portrait mode on both the Macintosh and Windows platforms through EIZO's ActiveRotation II feature which gives monitors the ability to recognise whether you're working in portrait or landscape mode. This orientation is useful when working in the studio so you and your subject can preview the shots as they are taken and it's also a great way to show off images to clients when they are ready to be showcased.
Reading documents is easier and you'll have less scrolling to do on webpages but the main advantage for a photographer is that it allows you to see a whole portrait image on the screen without you having to adjust the size of the photo or scroll around the screen. You may be wondering why you'd want to switch to portrait mode if you've quite happily worked in landscape orientation for some time, however it does have its benefits. The EIZO monitors which can do this feature a versatile stand that offers height, tilt, and swivel adjustments alongside the portrait display mode. Some monitors, such as the EIZO ColorEdge CG276 we use in the ePz office, can be used in a portrait mode as well as the usual landscape orientation we've come accustom to.
