Home › Forums › Help and Support › Too bright after calibration?
Hi.
I’ve calibrated my laptop screen (on a MSI GL72) with Colormunki Smile and DisplayCAL.
I choosed this laptop since it had a 95,7% sRGB-coverage when calibrated (data from Notebookcheck.net) – opposed to a quite lower coverage from the other alternatives i was looking at.
I’ve been using it for around six months now.
Recently i calibrated it since with the Colormunki + DisplayCAL.
I am VERY happy with the RGB adjustment, the whitebalance is just perfect (as opposed to Colormunki’s own software, which turned my display greenish).
But i am having trouble with seeing the “almost white”-greyscales – and i also have a feeling that my screen now is quite bright.
As an example, i’ve uploaded a photo i took the other day – the greyish halo around the boy is not visible on my calibrated monitor – but it is quite visible on my smartphone, a friends Macbook Pro, and on a printed picture (printed via a local photo-service, which delivers good quality printed pics for the average consumer).
But why cant i see this greyish halo??
Is this caused by the gamma selection? – what gamma should i select when creating a profile? – i just picked 2.2 which was the default value.
Any others experienced this problem?
Hi,

This may be a viewing angle issue – TN panels are particularly affected by such effects.
Is this caused by the gamma selection? – what gamma should i select when creating a profile? – i just picked 2.2 which was the default value.
2.2 is a sensible allround choice.
