All good here in Mexico with 33 very distinct bars, thanks for sharing!
All good here in Mexico with 33 very distinct bars, thanks for sharing!
that bar comes in very handy. I use a laptop, and wouldnt know what angle to have the screen without it.
CC allways appreciated!
My gear Canon 1100D, Tamron SP70-300mm F/4-5.6 Di VC USD lens, and Canon 18-55 EFS lens.
i can see 48 gaps. Oh my, I forget to wear my glasses lol. I am a freshman in photography. I hope I can learn a lot from here
Thanks Kym.
All is good. Will dig a little deeper on the link you have provided for further understanding.

My monitor appears to be OK
Thanks, Kym. Mine is okay.
Again:
reminder: The calibration bar does NOT mean your monitor is correctly calibrated. It just means that the brightness levels are correct, nothing more.
To ensure your monitor is correctly calibrated, the use of a hardware device is necessary. Please do not assume that because you can see all the squares on our calibration bar, that you do not need to use a monitor calibrator. Use of a hardware calibration device is the only way to get it right!
Just cause you can see all the bars does not mean your screen is OK.

Newby here, thanks for the tip.
Thanks Kym
I'm wondering if this thread is just being used to reactivate , There seems to be a lot that just say thanks with 1 or 2 posts , We dont get any saying , Great I've just purched a Calibration tool to do the proper calibration as we have suggested on numerous occasions ?
If I notice those (and many above I have) I send them a PM explaining the inactive cycle. Eventually they will lose access and have to post every single day for 6 months to retain/regain access. My thoughts are they are not wanting to/willing to join in, so the inactive cycle will bite them.
Thanks for this, all looks ok.
Thanks very much for that, I appreciate the effort put into it. It's always great to find that your monitor is working against a variety of tests. It also shows that my calibration tools are working well. That said, do you know much about the new Spyder4 and if they made such improvements with it that one "should" replace Spyder3?
The spyder4 was an upgrade, and basically uses the same colorimeter as the 3 version. The colorimeter changed a lot between spyder 2 and spyder 3.

Thankyou that was very handy
Yes to calibrate correctly, you need a spider, have seen them on e-bay at reasonable prices.
Thank You

I recently re-calibrated my monitor. happy to distinguish the 33 shades
