Color Calibration
-
I am really really serious about photography, but i'm also really really serious about computers...and a Mac just doesn't cut it for me. Though I will give Mac's credit where credit is due, they are great for photo editing (minus the one button mouse), video editing, audio editing, and testing future microsoft "innovations." :-D -- Adam "If you can't beat your computer in chess, try kickboxing"

And Photoshop exists for both. Is it the one button mouse that does the trick? ;) -- Ich bin Joachim von Hassel, und ich bin Pilot der Bundeswehr. Welle: Erdball - F104-G Starfighter
BTW, the monitor can make a huge difference too. Plug a Mac (SVGA) monitor into a PC see if you don't notice a change. Jeremy Falcon

Hopefully there are some graphics people who are CPians...I just got two beautiful 19" flat panel displays, but now I need to calibrate their colors so that they not only match each other, but also so that they match realistic colors so I can accurately edit photos (I'm a hobby photographer...an expensive hobby i must say). Anyways, does anyone out there have any tips, hints, tools, or techniques they use in order to get the most accurate color calibration for their monitors? Thanks, -- Adam "If you can't beat your computer in chess, try kickboxing"
Get the Spyder or a similar tool. There is only so much you can calibrate with your eyes and software alone. I suggest this because I see you can afford two 19" flat panel displays :) regards, Paul Watson Bluegrass South Africa Ian Darling wrote: "and our loonies usually end up doing things like Monty Python."
