Title: Bias lighting for image editing monitor
Post by: Craig Lamson on May 28, 2015, 10:17:56 am

I've been reading about bias lighting for tv viewing and was wondering if anyone was using for an editing monitor?

Does it help, or is it a complete waste?

It certainly does make viewing monitors far more comfortable for evening viewing.

I think of it as illuminating the work area around the monitor, which I have done with a photographically correct, 96CRI, 5500ºK  overhead lamp, which I dim up and down by adding or subtracting layers of grey window screen material.
