I am not aware of it having a ten percent buffer, though having at least a small buffer would be appropriate, to assure that all displays continue to be able to reach the target value over time.

I did a calibration of both of my monitors to 100 cd/m2, 6500K, 2.2 Gamma and the two monitors appear visually to be the same or extremely close. I decided to try the Studio Match function but am having a problem specifying the brightness level.

When I try to override this to 100 or 99, it still shows the target of 89 after taking a reading. Both monitors are capable of a brightness greater than 100 cd/m2. I do not seem to be able to override the suggested setting of 89.
