Hello everybody. I'm trying to calibrate my actual desktop monitor (HP F1904, 19", 1280x1024, DVI, TN Pannel, 6 years old, not DDC) in a dimly lit room, only iluminated by a flexo lamp with a blue light (60w) bounced against the wall, behind the monitor. I'm using ColorEyes Display Pro and Spyder2express sensor. I have some doubts:
1. Native White Point: i set Native White point (Luminance 100cd) because my monitor has aged, but will give me more consistent results D65?
2. Gamma target: great doubt L* vs Gamma 2.2. I don't know which is better? I'm wondering if Gamma 2.2 is more standard and better for web purposing
3. Black point target: min. luminance (no problem here)
4. Monitor pre-calibration: i don't understand it. I don't know if i have to use this pre-calibration if i set "Native White point". My monitor has a OSD menu, where you can modify bright, contrast, color (by default is selected 5700K, but you can select too 6500k, 9300k or custom color, with a sliders for RGB). By default my monitor is too bright for my taste, so i download a bit bright value from 85 to 70 (contrast is set to 75). When i tried monitor pre-calibration, Coloreyes Display show me a crazy values from my RGB channels, especially Blue (-50!)...
5. Finally, i don't know how interpretate Validation Results, but i obtain an Average dE=0.50 and Maximum dE=0.90...
Thanks for your help
Kind regards
