Basic editing for web, calibrate to srgb or gamma 2.2? 6500k?

[thevisi0nary]

Trying to get the best possible calibration for web editing. I get good results in the verification report, but I am not sure if I am targeting the right settings for web editing purposes. For the tone curve, should I use srgb or gamma 2.2? Also, is 6500k standard? It comes off as slightly warm, but I have limited experience so I could be way off base with that. Editing in a medium / slightly dim room with the monitor at 185 cd/m2 brightness.

Aim for 80-120 nits – depends on the room lighting you are working on. 6504K is required, and I would use gamma 2.2.

For web, as long as you check your work on a few different non-color managed devices, that’s as much as you can hope for. Absolute accuracy on your end won’t be delivered to your audience in most cases, don’t sweat it.

For general purpose and common use, I would go with 120 nit, 6500k, gamma 2.2, medium speed and verify using large test chart (325 patch)
