Started getting calibrated gamma readings around 2.6 instead of 2.2. Dunno why.

I’ve been testing a replacement monitor and all of a sudden I’m starting to get verification reports that are off and I see it is because even though I set gamma to 2.2, which is what the monitor is suppose to be calibrated to, it goes way up to 2.6-2.7. I’m not sure what is causing this or how to correct it. I’m going to try to attach my latest calibration and report to this thread.

Thanks!

Think I figured it out. I was using the light sensor on my Spyder 5 Pro to test ambient light levels but the reading was pretty low (lower than I think it should be) so DC jacked up the gamme (i’m assuming) to take that level of light into account. That ended up being gamma 2.6 instead of 2.2.

Thanks.
