Monitor Calibration
Yesterday I had to help my sister calibrate her monitor and her new drawing tablet. Colour calibration is pretty important for her because she works on colouring in graphic novels.
I use an open source calibration software called DisplayCal which works with my Spyder 4 and her Spyder X device.
We checked the calibrated results afterward on the Lagom LCD monitor test pages.
I’ve done enough calibration for a while, I can see many more colours than I could before on my new tablet. I apologize for the red parrots and the red fighting fish, they are a lot redder than I had realized.
My old monitor didn’t handle the reds anywhere near as well, it was torturous painting in those tones.
I’m still trying to get another goldfish done, but the bright colours are pretty tiring on the eyes, especially in digital form.
