BTW, Graeme.
I must congratulate your excellent work on dispcal, for this lowly Samsung
2693HM LCD monitor appears mighty good in Photoshop (even at a low 60 cd/m2
-- don't ask why so low). I glanced at some of my usual reference RGB images
and they all appeared quite the "souvenir" I have of all of them. I could
not put a number on this measure of "souvenir" but everything appears
well-balanced and convincing to my eyes. No obvious color casts of any kind.
Just nice colors to look at.
Now, before attempting the calibration leading up to this quality this
morning and getting the results I'm getting now, I must say I was less than
impressed with quality I was getting last week. Same display. Same dispcal,
but not the same target settings. Perhaps because I was using a target black
setting of 0.50 while using "Minimum" now? Before, the shadows appeared
quite washed-out. Must have been because of that setting. I realize there is
a difference between asking for a specific black luminance target (if ever
affordable instruments like the DTP94 can actually measure the little
luminance they say they measure) and just going for the minimum. In the
latter, dispcal is forced to use higher RGB levels in order to find a
combination that measures the same chromaticity as the target white point.
Is that what's going on?
