Miriam H Posted March 24, 2018 Author Share Posted March 24, 2018 To be honest I have't calibrated the new screen as I need to print some albums and as I wrote before the coloring is not good but it's not so critical anymore so I'm scared that the coloring will take me to long to get it to be right on my new screen ..... But I think I'm going to do it now ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Miriam H Posted March 24, 2018 Author Share Posted March 24, 2018 so what do you say should I calibrate on my new screen now or should I do it when I'm not pressured to print albums ? as my clients are driving me mad !!! - they want there pics for passover!!! What about : I know that you are 100% right and all I need is the profile from the printer but what should I do that I cant get it ! the lab is really nice and he is really trying to help me (even when he does not need me as I mentioned before that he is one of the biggest labs here in Israel ) I don't knew if he really doesn't knew or if they just dong give it here ??? so maybe there is something that I can still do ??? is there a way that I look it up myself ?? or is there a way I can explain the lab better what I need ? or will I just have to face t that my coloring isn't perfect ????!!!! thank you !

This is BS and you know it. You can't just add some blue to your pics and say you've solved a problem. CALIBRATE YOUR DARN SCREEN. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Miriam H Posted March 25, 2018 Author Share Posted March 25, 2018 Hi I calibrated my screen just now ....! I made the white point D50 and the Luminance 60 ( I have tried all the numbers before but this is the closest to me prints ...) The coloring is very similer but still not perfect the red on my screen is much brighter and the prints are a darker ... Do you think I should still do my Luminance lower ?? Thank you Miriam Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Damien Symonds Posted March 25, 2018 Share Posted March 25, 2018 Is it ALL reds? Or only the very vivid bright reds? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Miriam H Posted March 25, 2018 Author Share Posted March 25, 2018 I think only in vivid reds , Do you think all is ok? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Miriam H Posted March 25, 2018 Author Share Posted March 25, 2018 on this picture the reds were darker and less bright Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vivid reds need to be corrected using the soft-proofing profile. But if you can't get the profile, you're just going to have to live with this, and do your best.

Damien Symonds Posted March 25, 2018 Share Posted March 25, 2018 No. If the only problem is vivid reds, and the rest of the photos match ok, there's nothing else that calibration can do. It's all about the soft-proofing from here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
