I’m curious as to how many of you have calibrated the display on your monitor? I personally have never bothered to do so but now feel the need.
I spent a great deal of time processing the pictures I took at King Ranch. Despite the overcast and constant drizzle (low light) I felt I came up with some pretty good shots. Processed the RAW pics on my laptop (Dell purchased about 6months ago) and displayed them on my TV. They all looked awesome.
So here I am at work (different monitor) looking at the exact same pics on the thread and they are not the same images I had intended to be seen. They all appear to be much darker than that on my laptop. A few are actually way too dark for my liking (on this monitor).
Now I’m wondering if my laptop display is too bright or if my monitor at work is too dark? What have some of you guys done to get properly calibrated?
If you don’t mind, please visit the thread in reference (King Ranch Bucks) and let me know how you see the pics and if you have calibrated your monitor. Keep in mind that the pics were taken on an overcast, light drizzle weekend so they shouldn’t be extremely bright either. I thought I had set the right exposure to bring out the animal without compromising the look or feel of the actual conditions I was in. What do you see in the thread?
Thank you all very much for your help.
