[argyllcms] Re: Monitor calibration

Don't confuse "Brightness" which is a perceptual construct with "Contrast".
Contrast is the control associated with Luminance -- not Brightness. I would
tend to disagree with what can be seen at a lower Luminance level for the
visual system is infinitely adaptable to light levels. I would not agree
with a statement like "less shadow details" at lower luminance, that's just
not true.

This is the case with my U2410, even when Brightness = 0 in OSD menu its
brightness is about 117 (or 105, I can't recall exactly, something >
100) cd/m^2.
