Recently, I've only used it to confirm my Dell U2412M monitors were correctly calibrated when delivered-which they were.īut the mistake most hobbyists make is stopping there. Once completed, a new color profile is created which is then automatically loaded when you load Windows. Just hang the Spyder on the monitor and start the program which guides you through all of the steps. Perhaps this is true for the newer high end models, but for the version I've been using for a few years now, it's really pretty simple. There is a rather steep learning curve involved if one does not already know color science. I figure that as long as your screen that is displaying your video is properly calibrated, than it doesn't really matter if the other ones match. I'm only really interested in having ONE display that is properly calibrated. People brought up how it's difficult to get your displays to match. What brought this to my attention was a post I made a while back about editing on two monitors. or is this ultimately an "in the eye of the beholder" kinda thing? So what do you guys recommend? What is the easiest/cheapest method of tackling this problem? I've heard of expensive programs, but is there perhaps a monitor that you can purchase that comes pre-programmed with the proper display settings? but it'd be nice to get an accurate display on my own monitor. Of course, when others view your content, you can't help what settings they have on their display. The idea that hours of meticulous color correcting may have been wasted due to your screen not being properly calibrated makes me wanna pull my hair out.
