Just trying to calibrate the monitor with the eyeone pro (revb). I'd say it looks slightly worse after the profiling. Is it possible the original eyeone cant hand the gamut? Or that mine is kaput?
I noticed 2 things: prior to profiling I was very happy with the uniformity of the screen. Afterwards I can see a distinct green cast at the bottom and its slightly darker. Whites are very slightly pinkinsh at the top. Prior to profiling I could see the difference in photoshop between a white of 255, 255, 255 and one of 254, 253, 253, afterwards I cannot.
Eyeone match gets you to set contrast to 100%, and brightness very low (down to 16/100 on my monitor to get to 125 cd/m2). I wonder why seeing as presumably it then has to produce a curve to smooth out those squashed values.
Dont really want to fork out for another profiler, anyone got any tips?
ps I was lazy and did not alter the colour balance of the monitor: it looked terrifically neutral to start. (colour mode on standard)
