Calidration

[Lee-Ann Nolan]

I followed your steps to calibrate using spyder pro 5 with the blinds drawn. Does this mean that my editing photos now require this exact lighting?

[Damien Symonds]

Calibration should be done in dim light.  Some people even do it in the pitch dark, but that's not really necessary.

But at the end of the calibration process, at the print comparison stage, you must be in good bright light.  And your editing must be done in good bright light too.

Thanks so much for your easy straight forward answers, much appreciated.

Did your calibration achieve a good print match?
