Re: [datacolor_group] Spyder3Elite 4

2010-05-03 by Aram Melkoumov

Hi!
When you say calibrate to native white point, that means just select native in option for white point? I've done that as well as Gamma 2.2 - 6500 recommended and brightness at both 120 and 180. I can see a difference in uncalibrated and calibrated switching,  but its all the same effect no matter what settings i put it at. There is always a pinkish overlay. When u look at bright white it looks pinkish. Please help. Thanks

Sincerely,

Its the only USB port connection at the time of all calibrations, but I always get very similar results. There is always this pinkish effect on the display. Do you have any ideas? If you have tested this monitot what settings do you recommend in regards to Gamma and brightness as well as RgB settings. Please help me out.

First test would be to calibrate to native white point, and see what result that produces (in terms of perceived color casts). Please use the images in Spyderproof from within Elite to make your visual checks. And see what happens when you toggle between calibrated and uncalibrated states.
