However, the dull adjustment of the monitor was not arbitrary because for those who work with office documents tend to turn down the monitor brightness. A simple correction of the customers monitor brightness solves this problem and the colours are now displayed correctly.
But if we look at our monitors the colours are bright enough and look natural. Here some real-life examples:Ī customer complains that our scans from his photos are much too dark. Since we digitalize a lot of photos for our customers in line with our Scan-Service and also deliver many scanners sold in our Filmscanner-Shop we get a lot of feedback of problems related to a missing monitor calibration. I want to start this subject with a typical user problem which always occurs periodically. Typical cases of a missing monitor calibration It is very important for us to show unexperienced newcomers in the field of digital photography, scanning and image editing the significance of monitor calibration. This website applies itself in detail to the subject of monitor calibration. And the final printer or photographic laboratory output is not necessarily what it was when shown at the monitor. Such simple calibrations which should be named 'approximate adjustments' often provide the apparently best possible results but that has nothing to do with a correct representation of original colours on the monitor.
Recommendable products for screen calibration are available in our online shop.
