Camera advice for a specific use

[Firstfoto]

First post here so be kind

I am looking for a expert opinion for choosing a digital camera to take photos of monitor´s principally to compare after to other monitor´s pictures. Most photos will be of the whole screen and most would be like this Flickr: rui_bexiga's Photostream but I also will take "normal pictures" of nature, people, computer graphics etc
The principal for me is to accurately compare to my friend´s pictures and so features like geotaging, movie recording, compact in size, fast shutter and good outdoor performance etc are less important.

I think I will need a camera with accurate colors that passes well this test http://www.digitalcamerainfo.com/con...view/Color.htm What do you guys think?

I can go as far as 500 eur but I am willing to buy in Ebay even old one´s eg 2009 slr´s if better Can you advice me such a camera?


Sorry for my bad English


Thanks in advance

Why take pictures?
Why not do a screen capture and save it?

The porpose is to review monitors not the apps that take printscreens you will notice that the pics in the OP are patterns to test monitors.

Thanks

The 'app that takes printscreens' just dumps the video buffer to a file in a jpg format.
It certainly has less variability than introducing another set of variables in the form of a sensor, ambient light, post-processing and viewing, etc.

How could a screenshot possibly provide any information about the monitor it's being displayed on?

That I would like to know, it would save me a few bucks what I know is that not all printscreen images are the same it varies from the app used eg print screen from windows vista is worse then a app I seen oa few years ago.
