Hi, I selected the Video Preset with Low Calibration Speed, 1545 color patches and 2.2 gamma. My Gamma is 2.2 in the middle but starts to move to 2.3 towards the end. Is this normal to not have a flat 2.2? When I calibrate to Office and Web preset without any changes to settings I get a flat 2.2.
How is my calibration measurement report looking?
Hi,

Yes, the video preset uses BT.1886. If you want a power curve, set calibration output offset to 100% (and gamma to “relative”).
How is my calibration measurement report looking?
All in the green obviously.
Thank You for your reply.
Even when I switched to 2.2 it has a 2.3 gamma towards the end.
I enabled the show advanced options menu as before I had it disabled. And when I pick 2.2 tone curve it shows that it automatically switches relative and offset 100% automatically. But some reason i’m getting 2.3 towards the end?

Is that a bad thing or a good thing? Im not really the savvy when it comes to calibration.
And is there any way to improve calibration? What settings would I pick?
What would be a better gamma for my Macbook Pro display? Or any other display for that matter?

Good.

I see nothing that would need improvement.
I edited my original post and added some more questions.

The calibration didn’t use a 100% output offset, relative gamma curve. You can check this by selecting it under “Settings”.
Im looking at my profile I created and it says 2.2 gamma, offset 100% and relative. But I didn’t get 2.2 for some reason.
I don’t know if this information will help.
The gamma issue has actually been an ongoing problem even with previous versions of displaycal when I use large amount of color patches.
Im using the color munki display.
My MacBook Pro is a 13 inch an early 2011 model.
And I did my calibration on Sierra OS. Right now I currently upgraded to the new High Sierra OS.

I’ll do this tonight.
I have done white drift compensation before with an older version and the gamma was off as well. Though I will retry tonight with this newer version and see what happens.
I remember an older version of displaycal, calibration was horribly off with errors in the reds. Though with newer versions it seemed to fix that problem. Maybe the older version wasn’t reading patches correctly?
Shouldn’t the number of patches increase accuracy as well as lower calibration speed?
Calibration is fine when I have picked office and web preset before with gamma at a flat 2.2.
I tried out the larger color patches and lower speed to increase accuracy and thats when its off.
