![]() ![]() From there on all the other colors differ, and as I am basically photographing skin tones, it is, or rather, should I say, it became an issue for me. And that difference is noticeable to me, even between a white shirt on screen and that on a print. ![]() What's bothering me is that I see the paper with more or less different temperature and also tint. I did also use a second identical Eizo screen to slowly come closer to my match, which is the one with the white balance card, but still its not perfect. I tried innumerable temperature/gamma/luminance combinations freely selected on the monitor+software from 4700K upwards (Infact even lower, as the advertised Solux 4700K are no where near that). My closest luminance match to the paper white, both measured and eyeballed, is the very high 250cd/m2!īefore that, I tried to measure the different paper whites directly. I ended up with a Gamma 2.2 for various reasons among which are, that I only work for my own ink jet printer, not for a prepress room, that I use a PC, that it is closer to the Web's sRGB 6500K. The following procedure and setup produced the closest match till now, after a long quest: I use a Eizo screen, calibrated to approximately 5300K, which is the i1 measurement of a white balance card ("Grey Kard") in the 5000K JUST viewing booth, on my neutral gray desk, in a neutral gray painted dark room, with only a low 45 Lux glare free JUST 5000K indirect lighting. I even tried to ignore what I see, because it's not supposed to be there -) ![]() I have already difficulties with a view hundred Kelvin difference. I know that there are famous photographers who have eyes that, so they claim, are able to adapt between different white points while comparing an image on a screen calibrated for the Web (6500K, gamma 2.2, 80-120 cd/m2) to a 5000K viewing booth or even to a Solux 4700K or 3500K! Well, my eyes most definitely can't. The match is close, but not completely satisfying. ![]() Yes, matching my paper remains difficult even though I learned a lot, tried a lot and of course spent a lot. ![]()
