Datacolor Spyder Print - Advanced Data Analysis and Calibration Tool for Optimal Print Results, Perfect for Photographers, Graphic Designers, and Printing Professionals

I got a screen calibrator thingie.

I'm starting to edit photos for actual clients and if they are going to be printing any of these images I have to make sure my display is as accurate as possible.

I went through and looked at all of my recent edits to see if any of them were egregiously out of whack except for that one weird photo of the red baby that seems to only be red on my Samsung phone. Thankfully everything else looked close to how I intended. So that is a relief.

Color accuracy used to be a much worse problem. In the old days you could look at identical displays from the same company and they would have completely different colors. But now with the exception of the cheapest of the cheap, every display in the last 5 years is calibrated at the factory. Though TVs are a mixed bag because the "standard" or "vivid" modes are usually set as default so they stand out in stores and most people don't know to change that to the cinema or movie mode to get the accurate colors.

Oh, and did you know the ambient light can affect color accuracy too? So if you aren't looking at my images in a darkened room then your eyeballs could be seeing them way different than my intentions.

Makes me want to pull my hair out.

From now on you all have to come over to my house when I publish an image. We'll have a little viewing party and I will bake everyone cookies and we'll head to the basement and turn out the lights and you can be all, "That baby is the perfect amount of red."

I think going forward I will adjust according to my calibrated screen and if my colors look funky on your device I can just say, "Not my fault, Datacolor Inc. says your screen sucks. Deal with it."

Actually, I would like to get an iPhone as a reference display.

Combined with my Samsung phone, I'd be able to see how my images look on ~80% of smartphones. And I could be reasonably sure my colors are decent for the majority of folks who see them.

But iPhones be spendy so that will have to wait, as my finances took a sudden infuriating turn recently. But hopefully I can keep getting clients to help me stave off homelessness. You'd think close family would be concerned about something like that. I think I'm just going to choose my family from here on out.

Wow, this post about colorimeters took a dark turn.

Dell Inspiron 14 Plus (7441) Test

Angetrieben von einem Qualcomm Snapdragon X Prozessor dient das Dell Inspiron 14 Plus (Modell 7441, beginnend bei $849.99 und $999.99 wie getestet) als solides, wenn auch unscheinbares Notebook für den Alltag. Das Aluminium-Design sorgt für ein erstklassiges Gefühl und Funktionen wie Touchscreen, Wi-Fi 7 und mehrere biometrische Optionen gehören zur Standardausstattung. Obwohl es sich nicht von den mittleren Schlanklinien abhebt, ist es gut abgerundet genug, um ein würdiger Kandidat zu sein, besonders wenn Sie es im Sale erwischen. Bei diesem Preis und der Bildschirmgröße setzen wir auf das AMD Ryzen-basierte Asus Zenbook 14 OLED Touch (UM3406) für volle x86-Kompatibilität oder das Acer Swift 14 AI, wenn Sie bei Snapdragon für extreme Akkulaufzeiten bleiben möchten.

Der 14-Zoll-Laptop, den wir bei $999.99 getestet haben, ist mit einem Snapdragon X Plus Prozessor (X1P-64-100, 10-Kerne, 3.4GHz), Qualcomm Adreno integrierter Grafik, 16GB Arbeitsspeicher und einem 512GB Solid State Laufwerk ausgestattet. Das Einsteigermodell $849.99 bietet die Hälfte des Speichers (256GB). Optionale Upgrades umfassen einen Snapdragon X Elite Prozessor und ein 1TB Solid State Laufwerk.

Obwohl der Einstiegspreis des Dell unter jenen des Acer Swift 14 AI ($1,049.99), des HP OmniBook X 14 ($999.99) und des Lenovo Yoga Slim 7x ($1,199.99) liegt, sind diese Notebooks oft mit erheblichen Rabatten zu finden, sodass es sich lohnt, auf einen Verkauf zu warten. Ich bemerkte, dass unser Testmodell kurz auf $799.99 reduziert wurde, was es viel attraktiver machte. Beachten Sie auch, dass Dell eine Intel-Variante (Modell 7440) anbietet, die ähnlich preiswert ist, jedoch wesentliche Unterschiede in der Portauswahl, den Bildschirmoptionen und den Standardfunktionen aufweist.

Das Inspiron 14 Plus ist proportioniert wie das Acer Swift 14 AI, mit 0,7,12,4,8 Zoll. Bei 3,2 Pfund verpasst es unsere Drei-Pfund-Cutoff, um sich als ultraportable zu qualifizieren. Sowohl das Lenovo Yoga Slim 7x als auch das HP OmniBook X 14 sind dünner und leichter.

Das Aluminiumdesign des Dell fühlt sich robust und hochwertig an und erfüllt die MIL-STD 810H-Tests für den Betrieb unter rauen Bedingungen. Während das Notebook optisch nicht auffällig ist, verleihen ihm die abgerundeten Ecken eine freundliche Optik und der Ice Blue Deckel bricht die Monotonie auf.

Batterie- und Display-Tests Wir testen die Akkulaufzeit jedes Laptops und Tablets, indem wir eine lokal gespeicherte 720p-Videodatei (der Open-Source Blender Film Tears of Steel) mit Displayhelligkeit bei 50% und Audiolautstärke bei 100%. Wir stellen sicher, dass der Akku vor dem Test vollständig aufgeladen ist, wobei WLAN und Tastatur-Hintergrundbeleuchtung ausgeschaltet sind.

Um die Anzeigeleistung zu messen, verwenden wir auch einen Datacolor SpyderX Elite Monitor Kalibrierungssensor und seine Windows Software, um die Farbsättigung eines Laptopbildschirms zu messen – welchen Prozentsatz der sRGB-, Adobe RGB- und DCI-P3-Farbbereiche oder -paletten das Display anzeigen kann – und seine 50% und Spitzenhelligkeit in Nissen (Candelas pro Quadratmeter).

Während die fast 17-stündige Laufzeit des Inspiron nahelegt, dass es problemlos einen Arbeitstag oder eine Schule überstehen sollte, ohne sich anzuschließen, liegt seine Ausdauer am unteren Ende des Snapdragon-Spektrums. Die Bildschirmhelligkeit bei der 50% Einstellung, die wir für Tests verwenden, gehört jedoch zu den höchsten in dieser Gruppe, so dass es möglich sein sollte, mit geringerer Helligkeit mehr Zeit herauszuquetschen.

Die nahezu vollständige sRGB-Farbabdeckung und die hohe Helligkeit des Inspiron sorgen für ein solides Seherlebnis. Das OLED-fähige Lenovo hat breitere Farben, aber das Inspiron ist alles andere als untersättigt. Das Acer-Display hat einen Vorteil, der in unseren Messungen nicht erfasst wird: Es bietet eine gleichmäßigere Bildwiederholrate von 120Hz, während das Inspiron auf die Standard-60Hz beschränkt ist.

Introduction to ProArt Calibration – Setup and Operation

Color accurate, flexible and awesome

Corrected and cropped displays are an important part of a successful digital workflow for those seeking color perfection. However, display colors degrade over time, so wide gamut displays can exhibit color distortion. ASUS introduces a new solution: ASUS ProArt ™ Calibration that produces accurate, consistent and beautiful colors in a professional monitor.

Light and color change

Asus Proart Calibration stores all color settings profiles on the IC chip of the monitor instead of the PC, so you can connect your monitor to different devices without changing any settings or color changes. At the same time, it reduces the signal distortion between the IC and the display. It's an easy way to refresh your screen to restore brightness and color to your screen. Support type

ProArt Displays: PA32UCX, PA32UCX-K, PA27UCX, PA27UCX-K, PA32UCX-P, PA32UCX-PK, PA32UCG, PA32UCG-K, PA32UCR, PQ22UC, PA32DC.

Colorimeter: i1DisplayPro/i1DisplayProPlus,Datacolor Spyder 5/Spyder X,Klein K10

Configuration required

Windows 10 64-bit, Windows 11 64-bit

How to connect PC to monitor to use ASUS ProArt Calibration

If you want to run the ProArt Calibration software to calibrate the monitor, you must do the following:

1. Image transfer: HDMI / Displayport or USB-C / Thunderbolt can be used

2. Data transfer: Can be connected to the USB-C / thunderbolt port of the monitor through the USB-A to C cable. Click [Enter] to save and enter the configuration data in user mode 1/2 or set mode.

If step 1 does not configure the parameters with the set values, but with your own customized parameters, the custom values ​​for this configuration can be stored in [Custom Target]. If you choose a schedule, you can start setting when you want the schedule to run and whether you want it to repeat weekly or just once.
