Perli halpern Posted August 22, 2017 Author Share Posted August 22, 2017 Here is the link from where i purchased it. https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B00SJ0LIMC/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o05_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Damien Symonds Posted August 22, 2017 Share Posted August 22, 2017 Thanks. Yes, White LED should be the correct settings, so it can't be that. With your recalibrations, have you now got the brightness exactly right? What luminance target have you calibrated to? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Perli halpern Posted August 22, 2017 Author Share Posted August 22, 2017 It is probably still slightly too bright but i find it hard to see with all this pink because the colouring is so different. I used 80 for the luminance target Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Damien Symonds Posted August 22, 2017 Share Posted August 22, 2017 Now that you have both screens calibrated, can you open a photo on both screens, then take a photo for me? So I can see the difference? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Perli halpern Posted August 22, 2017 Author Share Posted August 22, 2017 Good idea - Yes I will do that first thing in the morning for you. Thanks again 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Damien Symonds Posted August 23, 2017 Share Posted August 23, 2017 That photo makes it look like the desktop screen is too warm. Is that the case? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Perli halpern Posted August 23, 2017 Author Share Posted August 23, 2017 Correct I have calibrated cooler but i found the pink still stayed. Should i re calibrate to 10000k? using method 1? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Damien Symonds Posted August 23, 2017 Share Posted August 23, 2017 Yep. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Perli halpern Posted August 23, 2017 Author Share Posted August 23, 2017 OK so I really calibrated lowering brightness to 70% and cooling to 10000k. Deff better but the skin tones are still pink. I have attached a pic of both screens jn one pic and then of a print next to each screen (the print looks green on the phone pic...jn real it deff has more pink jn it but nowhere near as much as the desktop screen) the print is more similar to laptop Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Perli halpern Posted August 23, 2017 Author Share Posted August 23, 2017 i made the desktop cooler but it is not cooler than the laptop!!! i guess the phone pics is not doing a great job huh!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Damien Symonds Posted August 23, 2017 Share Posted August 23, 2017 There must be something we're missing here. Do you have any prints without people (skintones) in them to compare? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Perli halpern Posted August 23, 2017 Author Share Posted August 23, 2017 no all are with people!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Damien Symonds Posted August 23, 2017 Share Posted August 23, 2017 Well, if you try to ignore the skintones, is pink still the problem in other areas? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Perli halpern Posted August 23, 2017 Author Share Posted August 23, 2017 Im trying to look at other pictures, its very hard to say but i think the problem of the pink is basically in the skintones more than anything else. what i do notice and have a problem is that blues greens and yellows are stronger and brighter on screen than on print - print is a bit deeper and duller. (That might be a whole separate issue or is it the same thing...) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Damien Symonds Posted August 23, 2017 Share Posted August 23, 2017 That's a soft-proofing issue, and we might as well pursue that now. https://www.damiensymonds.net/2010/03/bit-about-soft-proofing.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Perli halpern Posted August 23, 2017 Author Share Posted August 23, 2017 OK I will go through hhw soft proofing process - I think I will wait for that when I start with a UK lab in a few weeks. Besides for that, if the laptop screen looks better than the desktop screen, is that still a soft proofing issue??? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Damien Symonds Posted August 24, 2017 Share Posted August 24, 2017 I think I might be a dense idiot. Can you make sure your Display control panel doesn't have your screens set to "Duplicate"? That would be catastrophic. They must be on "Extend". Also, which one is designated as the Number 1 screen? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Perli halpern Posted August 24, 2017 Author Share Posted August 24, 2017 where do i check that please? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Damien Symonds Posted August 24, 2017 Share Posted August 24, 2017 In the Control Panel. It's the Displays one, I think. I'm out at the moment, I'll check for you later if you haven't found it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Perli halpern Posted August 24, 2017 Author Share Posted August 24, 2017 Im in the display control panel but im still not sure what i'm checking. theres a bit red rectangle with a 1 in it. Then it tells me the resolutions which is the recommended one. and then the colour settings. How do i see what my screen is set to? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Damien Symonds Posted August 24, 2017 Share Posted August 24, 2017 May I see a screenshot of that? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
