The comparison

Now that the calibration is finished, it’s time to check the results, by comparing some prints. I explained this process on this page.

Satisfied with the print match? Great! Go here >>

But if you're not satisfied, go here >>

Been around to this damn page multiple times and it's still not right? Go here >>

I can use any uncorrected prints from the old iMac I was using for editing correct? 

[Damien Symonds]

Correct.

[Michelle Pena]

OK thank you, I need to recalibrate with a different native screen too bright and cool.

[Michelle Pena]

Screen still toto bright at 60 native and d55 ? Do a custom luminance  and d50? 

[Damien Symonds]

Then your room light must be too dim.

[Michelle Pena]

I have 4 bright white bulbs around me , but without it bouncing off the screen. Anyway to work around that?

 

[Damien Symonds]

What do you mean by "around you"?  Are they in the ceiling?

[Michelle Pena]

Lamps

[Damien Symonds]

[Michelle Pena]

I have those same bright white light ( 4 of them) in the ceiling fan as well. The brightness seems better but the screen is still cool.

[Damien Symonds]

What is the temp rating of the bulbs, do you know?

[Michelle Pena]

they are 6500k daylight

And how do they "feel"?  White?  Neither warm nor cool?

[Michelle Pena]

They feel white, the lamps covers are white and the covers on the ceiling fan are crystal clear. So everything is white.

[Michelle Pena]

OK, I calibrated at 60 native d50 and three out 4 prints match better. The light pink image not so much. The brightness is at 4 ticks .

[Damien Symonds]

In the circumstances, three out of four might be a pass.

[Michelle Pena]

I'll take it.

I know I have wb issues, I did have your raw class at one point but I had such a hard time with it. I still use the gray scale every shoot though, and it has helped a lot compared to before using it.
