Re: Color Calibration: Your Monitor and you
I think most known polycounters would be afraid to get a bad reputation from stealing something from the community, maybe only allow known members that A: Have a decent number of posts B: Have their real name posted and a website C: Have been an active member for at least a year. -
Color Calibration: Your Monitor and you
Asking around, it seems that very few 3d artists bother with having accurate colors, so I want to give a quick rundown. You will find zero professional photographers that don't calibrate, and once I got heavily into photography, I got a wide gamut monitor and started calibrating, and it's a world of difference. First, to… -
Re: Color Calibration: Your Monitor and you
After doing some more reading, I think I'm going back and forth between these three options: X-Rite i1 Display Pro LaCie Blue Eye Pro Spyder4 Elite I definitely want to be able to manually set as many options as possible, including specifying the target white point and luminance values, so it seems the "lower versions" of… -
Re: Color Calibration: Your Monitor and you
Thanks for the link Zac. If anyone else has experience with other brands or models, definitely post them up.

Re: Color Calibration: Your Monitor and you
I really wish stores like bestbuy or microcenter or something would have tv and computer colorimeters to rent with a returnable deposit, seems like a waste to buy something you'll use once a year, I think every studio should have some of employees to use at home. -
Re: Color Calibration: Your Monitor and you
Guess I'll go ahead and bump this thread. I did find a handful of other, newer threads that mentioned monitor calibration but this one was the most concise and on point, with some good general information I think. So I think it's about time I invest in an actual colorimeter/calibrator for my monitor. Up to this point I've… -
Re: Color Calibration: Your Monitor and you
this. Yes, your customers may all have different TVs hooked up to their xbox, but that's not the point. The point is that the art director, the concepter and the texture artist all see the same colors and the same levels. I remember the fun we had when we had mixed HP and Dell screens. AD "it's too dark!" artist going back… -
Re: Color Calibration: Your Monitor and you
^ thanks for elaborating! much appreciated. at least it's making sense now, because my previous research didn't bring anything tangible, everyone either praised luminance adjustments or hated it.
