Hi, I recently got a new Dell U2410 wide gamut monitor. Although it came calibrated from the factory I could not find a color preset that looked realistic. The monitor has a number of presets icluding standard, Adobe rgb, srgb (elumated srgb) games, etc. The monitor seemed to have an odd color cast, especially when editing gray scale images.
I calibrated it with my eye-one display 2 and everything looked much better afterward when using a color managed program such as PS or LR.
My question is, does it matter what preset mode the monitor is in when I calibrate it. I assume, but am not at all certain, that if I calibrated it in standard mode the colors will relate to the recent calibration as long as I keep the monitor in standard mode.
There was very little documentation that came with the monitor and not much on Dell's website. I am confused and would appreciate any help.
Thanks.
