It's a device you place on the monitor such as colormunki or datacolor's spyder device. Aids in tweaking todays monitors because they all come from the factory all hot rodded out with mass saturation that is eye pleasing but unrealistic in photography.

My HP has full calibration capability across all the parameter, but my 22" Benq on my desktop PC is limited in adjustment capability. So to answer your question, not all monitoring devices are capable of being adjusted fully.

Here's a few links to read up don't purchase direct, overpriced as usual:

Can't be done properly without the tool. Anything you do without it is simply guessing.

If you saw a calibrated monitor you would think something is wrong because the oversaturation and vibrance is majorly decreased. Also sets the white balance based on the ambient light within the room your working.

Oh i see. thanks, ill have to look into this.

Running a course of the flu myself, not sure I'll get the car out. Need to shake this bug because I tentatively scheduled some side work on 2 stangs for Sunday and need to get over to Ruffonis to look at his overhead dvd player..

HEAVYGT · November 9th, 2009, 04:16 PM

Emay · November 9th, 2009, 05:40 PM
