cathm Posted July 18, 2019 Posted July 18, 2019 Ok, I figured out why the monitor color was so off! There is a button at the bottom of the monitor to choose Standard, ComfortView, Movie, Game, Color Temp., and Custom Color. I changed to Custom Color and reduced blue (out of RGB) to 96% to match with my prints. Now, the monitor colors match with my prints!

cathm Posted July 23, 2019 Posted July 23, 2019 I Will do this when I get home today, thanks! After recalibrating it, instead of adjusting the custom color (no change in RGB), I adjusted the color temperature to match the print. Do I have to recalibrate every time I manually adj my monitor 's color temp or custom color? What if I calibrate again and I still need to adjust the color template?

Adjust again, then calibrate again. As often as you need to.
cathm Posted August 30, 2019 Posted August 30, 2019 Hi Damien! So sorry I was gone for a while.... My kids finally started school (2 year old just started preschool) and I finally have my own time. I am happy with how my monitor calibrates and would like to move forward. Could you please let me know what's the next step? Thanks!
Damien Symonds Posted August 30, 2019 Author Posted August 30, 2019 Got it, thanks. I can't wait to see lots and lots of your full raw edits in the Deluxe Posting Area.
