If you have the M1 Mini, you'll be able to calibrate one or two displays, however many you have attached. You can calibrate the built-in display on the laptops, as well as an external display.
COLORMUNKI DISPLAY PROBLEMS SOFTWARE
This reply was modified 3 years, 12 months ago by Vincent.Datacolor SpyderX and Spyder5 software (the current 5.7 releases) work properly on the new M1 Macs. Some of these low cost models may advertise uniformity correction but it may apply just to brightness (so teh awful green-pink tints in some zones of the screen are going to stay there) or not be usable with HW calibration at the same time.Ģ-Yes, you won’t be able to use HW calibration… but maybe it could be done in a indirect way with some public SDK like in those UP Dells and HP Zx series: compute grey correction with Displa圜AL (.cal) then manage to upload it to monitor.Īnyway too much work, saving 50-70 euro when your are going to spend at least 800 or 1000… I see it pointless unless you do it for fun, or in order to learn and such.ģ-LUT3D for Resolve, madVR… or to remorely (local network reading) measure tablets and phones so you can simulate those screens (even real time without color management like in PA NEC and some CG eizos) in your monitor. Color uniformity is NOT GPU correctable at this moment and most of the money you spend going from these to a PA NEC/CG-CS Eizos is going to get better/handpicked color uniformity panels. Getting munki is a nonsense in that particular situation.īTW: IMHO I’ll stay away from low cost segment in widegamuts (Benq, dell, viewsonic, asus, LG… you now). If you are going to get a monitor with HW calibration: NO DOUBTS, get i1DisplayPro. Also not all GPU are able to work that way regarding calibration… laptops are doomed to suffer GPU calibration banding almost for sure. Maybe you can give me example, where I would want to use huge LUT profile >1k patches? Lightroom/Photoshop use or more with video work Premiere/Resolve.ġ- GPU calibration with high bitdepth and dithering is visually very close to higbitdepth grey calibration done inside monitor… but monitor’s internal calibration can do a lot more of things than “current” GPU “desktop” calibration: gamut emulation. Does it mean, that using Displa圜AL I cannot write these calibration settings and LUT directly into EIZO/NEC/DELL/BENQ monitors supporting internal LUT? Means, this “internal LUT” feature is useless with my ColorMunki Display.ģ. Let’s say I will go for monitor refresh and get one with HW calibration like EIZO ir NEC (I see even Dell and Benq have internal LUTs), so calibration with ColorMunki will be possible, but it will be like “external”, writing and loading LUT for VIDEOCARD and not using SpectraView or ColorNavigator writing it directly into monitor firmware, right? So it will not be so precise? or it’s a question of simplicity or comfortability?Ģ. For now, I have old monitor HP LP2475w, so cheaper device fits fully here. From the first 3 described points, seems like cheaper ColorMunki Display does the thing for me quite well.

Thank you Vincent for clearing things up! But as I am quite new to color management, still some questions arise 🙂ġ.
