Monitor Calibration Those interested in photography like to get a reasonably calibrated monitor so that after you tweak your images you get reasonably accurate prints. Hardware calibration is the way to go but can be expensive. I find Windows software calibration poor but this one I think is quite good and very easy to use. Calibrize Calibrize is free software that helps you to calibrate the colors of your monitor in three simple steps. Just download the software and follow the procedure to generate a reliable color 'profile' and adjust the colors of your monitor automatically. | My System Specs | | System Manufacturer/Model Number Own build (+ Recased Acer Aspire x1800) OS Windows 7x64 Home Premium SP1 x 2 CPU Intel i7 2600k Motherboard ASUS P8Z68 Deluxe Memory G.Skill Ripjaws (DDR3-1600) 2x4GB Graphics Card Nvidia GeForce GTS 450; Intel HD Graphics 3000(GT2+) Monitor(s) Displays Dell Ultrasharp IPS panel U2311H, Samsung SyncMaster P2350 Screen Resolution 1920x1080 Keyboard Logitech MK520 (wireless) Mouse Logitech MK520 PSU Seasonic M12II 520W Case Lian Li Lancool PC-K60 Cooling Case: 1x120mm, 3x140mm CPU: Hyper 212+ Hard Drives Crucial M4 128GB (000F), Seagates 1TB Barracuda ST31000528AS + Internet Speed 6-7 Mbps Antivirus Norton NIS, Malwarebytes on 2 (MSE on 3rd PC) Browser FireFox Other Info Audio: Logitech Z523 2.1 |

Hum MJF this sounds like it is worth a try I suppose (dumb question) that the Windows calibration will still work as well.

Long winded response...can't make it shorter.
I am a novice to color management.
But the link on Calibrize gives an introduction to color management. If your program supports color management and you enable this then the default color profile as set under Windows color management will be loaded. The standard sRGB setting is fine for most screen viewing and you set your tastes for contrast, brightness and saturation that suites you. I normally set my monitor to "standard" and have things vibrant but contrast and brightness set so I don't get blinded when using Word, Excel etc which have white backgrounds.
BUT
If I'm doing photo editing then I set my monitor to "Custom" and use the defined color profile set as the default *.icm/*.icc profile set up in Windows Color Management. The screen will look more bland but it is the way it will look printed unless you have print autocorrect on your printer or at the store (this takes more control away from you). I use store printing (Big W at the moment) and set the print to non auto correct. I use various photo editing tools which are color managed and I end up getting a print close to how I tweak it on the screen.
This is difficult to do without a calibrated monitor and the utility "Calibrize" appears to do a reasonable job (far better than the Windows inbuilt tool) at generating a display.icm profile. | My System Specs | | System Manufacturer/Model Number Own build (+ Recased Acer Aspire x1800) OS Windows 7x64 Home Premium SP1 x 2 CPU Intel i7 2600k Motherboard ASUS P8Z68 Deluxe Memory G.Skill Ripjaws (DDR3-1600) 2x4GB Graphics Card Nvidia GeForce GTS 450; Intel HD Graphics 3000(GT2+) Monitor(s) Displays Dell Ultrasharp IPS panel U2311H, Samsung SyncMaster P2350 Screen Resolution 1920x1080 Keyboard Logitech MK520 (wireless) Mouse Logitech MK520 PSU Seasonic M12II 520W Case Lian Li Lancool PC-K60 Cooling Case: 1x120mm, 3x140mm CPU: Hyper 212+ Hard Drives Crucial M4 128GB (000F), Seagates 1TB Barracuda ST31000528AS + Internet Speed 6-7 Mbps Antivirus Norton NIS, Malwarebytes on 2 (MSE on 3rd PC) Browser FireFox Other Info Audio: Logitech Z523 2.1 |
