I just read that Digital Works uses printer profiles for soft proofing. Should I concern myself with this or Just calibrate for the print that I receive from Digital Works. I have not read much into soft proofing for printing as of yet. http://www.digitalworks.net.au/owners/Help/hlp_cspace.htm

Big Thanks Damien. You Rock!

And the printing?

Thanks Damien.

Hi Brian, Its been a while since we last talked. I got the Dell U2412M, which preset should i calibrate in. (Still a Newbie). Standard, Multimedia, Movie, Game, Text, Color Temp or Custom Color. I assume that i need to get close to 6500k? And also if my prints are coming back dark and underexposed, does that mean my monitor is to bright? And would you recomend me moving from snapfish to Digital Works (Australia) for printing? Thanks again for any help you can send my way.

Big Thanks Brian. I might just get the U2412M.

Cool. Thanks for all your help Brian. Do you by chance have any tips for calibrating this monitor? Also, what are your thoughts on refurbished monitors?

Thanks for your help Brian. Would you still choose the U2412M over the new U2415? From what I have read from Dell Australia, all screens are IPS and a matte finish. My video card is a Asus HD7970-DC2T. 4 Displayports, 1 VGA, 2 DVI The U2412M is selling at the moment for $429

Another one I also looked at that I forgot to mention was the Dell U2415

Hi, been reading a lot of info that is provided laitley on this forum and articles. And they are most helpeful. Like everyone I to am looking for a good photo editing monitor. I play games sometimes, but I have another monitor I'll use for that I think. Been looking at the Dells. The Ultrasharps. Not sure if I should get a 16:10 or 16:9 for editing. I will want to try and get close to 100% sRGB after reading articles from here. So choosing between the Dell Ultrasharp U2412M, the Dell Ultrasharp U2515H. I also looked at the UP2516D, but thought it would be an overkill. On the Dell sit for the U2412M, what does 82% (CIE 1976) cover? sRGB or Adobe RBG. Just not sure what CIE is. Any help would be most appriciated in choosing a monitor. Even any others that may also be good that I have not talked about. I also have a xrite eyeone display pro calibrator. I shoot in RAW all the time.I do also save for the web and print. The places I get my prints done only ask for Jpeg. I have not as of yet found one that will do more then jpegs. Thanks Jamie
