Displaycal cannot calibrate3/5/2023 Some folks suggest using that with the calibration hardware. Have you tried using PME (palette master element) - the software that BenQ gives with an SW monitor purchase? Thanks a ton for the clarification, Dave! That does not bother me, since I only use it once a month. The Color Munki will run slower and the Displa圜al runs a lot of color patches, so it takes several minutes to calibrate. It is compatible with many colorimeters, including the Color Munki Display. It's free but they do request a donation if you decide to use it. The combination is probably the best color calibration system for displays. It's a very advanced system that uses the Argyll color management system. If you want to move to more capable software I suggest you look at Displa圜al. I have both and have not been able to see any difference in the results. The software is a bit simpler and does not have as many tools to compare calibration as the more expensive i1 Pro. The difference is the speed of calibration and the options offered by the software. The reason to suggest the Color Munki Display (not Smile) is that it is the same colorimeter as the X-Rite i1 Pro, which is probably the best system available, and it costs less. Thanks very much for the feedback and the link Thern!! Thanks again! My only concern with the Munki is that it won’t work with Catalina. Regarding the calibration tool, would you be able to explain why an expensive one isn’t useful - is that because I won’t be printing? Just so I understand. Thanks for the response Dave! I will try out the colour mode. HERE is an article on your monitor and some recommendations on calibrating. Yes, every monitor should be calibrated periodically. Purchasing an expensive calibration system does not make sense. Your monitor is an IPS panel and has a 14 bit internal LUT, which means it will calibrate nicely. If I do need to calibrate, what would be the right tool to use?įirst be sure you have the correct color mode selected. I don't print any of the images I process, these are mainly for personal use and web sharing. The main problem I have is that reds don't appear red on the Benq.ĭo I need to calibrate it? The monitor is supposed to be factory calibrated. I have been away from processing & photography for a while, got an SW240 recently.
