![]() Funny thing was both images looked pretty much the same when I compared them side by side. I don't know if this is possible but I calibrated my little laptop with the Spyder, then output that file and compared it to an edit I did on my main computer. The problem I have is I'm thinking about switching to RAW and outsourcing some of my editing and at that point I know I probably need to tackle the elephant in the closet. I have seen my website on tons of laptops, tablets, and PCs that I know even with an uncalibrated monitor (like most of my clients are viewing my site on) the colors and tones look pretty good. I checked my two websites on the calibrated system and the colors looked so muddy and yellow/green. ![]() I have the Spyder Elite 3 and the last time I used it on my main work station I was convinced the color was way off. Have you had a good experience with calibrating your monitor and feel confident people on normal laptops are seeing your work in the best possible representation? It all seems pretty straightforward on video but I want to see what you guys think. Many of our Twitter followers recommended the ColorMunki by X-Rite which lead me to the following video on their system. Well today I decided to test the calibration waters again on my laptop (since it's not used as much as my main workstation). After a few hours of letting my eyes adjust, menu bars and icons I've seen for years start having a pink or yellow tone that I simply can't get used to viewing. In the past I have tried a few products to calibrate my monitors and the results have never been very pleasing to my eye. I know how important color is for a photographer, but as a Jpeg shooter I've always felt that if I can capture an image to my liking in camera then I should be good to go. ![]() Every now and then I toy around with the idea of calibrating my monitor. ![]()
