This video was so helpful and many appreciate it, thank you ❤️ To help you more I am creating full series of videos about colors & editing starting from shooting to color correcting and grading for photos & videos. I appreciate if you reply to this comment and let me know what do you want me to include in this series, that will be so helpful.
I've been having this issue for months and well it's still not perfect because my pc is kinda crappy and I don't have a calibration device, but it did improve a lot, and now it's minimally utilizable for drawing. Thanks man!
Just calibrate the monitor you are using to color your art and trust it, phones mostly has more saturated colors and sometimes very cold colors so dont mind that 👍🏼
I have problem in color display, my color display in laptop (artwork) is so fine that I find it no problem at all but when I export it to my phone, color variation are distorted and became lighter. For instance, my character color in laptop is flesh pink but in my phone, it is yellowish, hence looks brighter than my future.
This is exactly what I explained, if your laptop monitor is not calibrated then is it most probably it is bluesh so you need to calibrate it because you editing artwork will look yellowish on your mobile but if your laptop monitor is calibrated the the problem is your phone just ignore it 😉👍🏼
I started using Lightroom few days ago and i was facing the same issue my I'm new to editing things and i had no idea about this display problem and i had almost gave up on the idea of being an photo editor because of this problem but I'm really glad i found your video today this was really helpful 👍❤️
In days gone by I had the issue of printed photo (home photo printer etc.) vs what I spent hours tweaking on uncalibrated monitor never looking right. Until I (eventually) remembered that printers too have their own colour profile and range. So I found the icc profile for the printer online and loaded it whenever I was editing for print. Added benefit was also better overall colour accuracy and a less jarring result when viewing on other devices.It's kind of like the middle path nobody walks.
Thanks for the idea! But instead of using printed image, i think using recent smartphone screen also works fine as they have natural color by default mostly. It's actually just my excuse for not having a printer and not wanting to go out on weekend.
😂 Good excuse, yesterday friend of mine printed a photo on an expensive canon printer and he came to me complaining that it looks warmer than how it looks on his iphone and that proof to me that even iPhone doesn't have accurate colours. Phone brightness and contrast might be another issue coz u feel the photo has right exposure without noticing that ur phone brightness at 100% 😉
Hello dear, with the macboook pro colors are good but you are right brightness and contrast are tricky. My recommendation is to try auto brightness coz the light is changing between rooms or indoor and outdoor and if you are nit satisfied then you have to trust tools and not your eyes, you can depend on the histogram then 😉
@@MumtazBahri Thank you so much for your reply!! I didn't realize auto brightness could be a solution!I love photography but all the tech things surrounding it is not my jam 😂
@Noelle B. Miller You are always welcome dear! to be honest not being so much into tech things is a good thing coz you will be focusing on the photography itself and not getting distracted with the tech side 👍😉
Hahaha, you really made me laugh 😂 Yes, I been through what you are experiencing right now and I didn't find any solution online without calibration meter thats why I came up with this solution until I got the spyder5 and it was worth the investment 😉👍🏼
If you don’t want to print out a photograph you could always look at the colours on an iPhone or ipad if you or anyone you know has one, because the colours on Apple products are generally really accurate
WOW this is awesome thank you so much!! I am wondering about the 2nd method... my laptop monitor does not have the choices like that.. it just has 3 different settings I can choose for color calibration and that's it. It uses Windows 8. I am going to be starting a virtual color consulting business, helping people with exterior roof, siding and trim coordination, and I am wondering, should I just get a mac computer to start off the bat, rather than getting a new montior for my laptop? It seems to me that Apple rules when it comes to anything artistic in nature but I don't know as I've never personally had one But both my sons use Apple laptops for their music producing and video making.
Yeah I love the fact that they have this calibration tool but one of the things I found is once you make a calibration using the windows calibration tool when you are in Lightroom you get different colors from your catalog to your edit
Thanks for the easy calibration way you provided.... I see your PC monitor was a bit closer to your printed colors than those on your laptop screen colors. Do you have any thoughts on color reproduction differences between different kinds of monitors, LCD, LED, IPS and such?? Thanks again man.... Good luck and best wishes ;)
Glad it helped, yes the PC screen was very close but a bit warmer when the laptop screen was totally off. I dont have really technical knowledge about the difference between LCD, LED and IPS I am sure you know them better 😉 you are most welcome bro and see u soon 👍
Thanks! I'm continuously struggling with video colour!! It doesn't help at all that the colours look so different on the playback of different devices.
Thank you it helped i have a question does the expensive color calibrated monitors need callibrating too? Or they are just one time purchase and never touch Calibration settings ever
Honesty I didn't try them, as I know benq calibrated monitors are good but maybe things changed since then so I recommend you to look for some reviews and comparisons before deciding 👍🏻
if you are using any phone other than iphone then your phone colors are not accurate coz apple has almost color calibrated monitors so just ignore your phone colors and trust the macbook, but if you have iphone and the colors are still different then there is a problem. if I am in your place I would ignore the phone coz I trust the mcbook colors unless you are having big difference if you print the photos 😉
I have done 2nd way in calibrate display color. Its works, purpler becomes purple instead of blue. But after the finish when I insert an HDMI cable to my drawing table the color return back. And when I adjust color while HDMI cable has inserted mid way, the color changes my drawing table screen too. So I wonder is the 3rd way that Spyder calibration works same way too or not? If this is better I will get a Spyder instead. I just thinks it is too expensive.
I guess your computer video card is resetting the colors when u insert the HDMI so try to do the same calibration way but from the video cars control panel, search in the video card control panel there should be option to change the RGB colors, I have done that before, I change the Red Blue and greens from the video card settings and I note the numbers on a small paper in case I reset it by mistake. that works well for me. I spent thousands of dollars on photography equipment and $150 spyder was worth the investment coz that change my work a lot, if $150 is big amount for what you are doing just stick to the manual calibration it is helping 👍😉
Now I have tried used Intel graphics control panel, it can adjust my laptop monitor color without changes my drawing tablet screen colors, but it is difficult to adjust all colors correctly. Have you tried using Spyder calibration device to change colors, then insert HDMI into any monitor, TV and etc, without resetting monitor colors or changing other machine colors? I just want to know if this same thing as Manually Calibration? Or you guess just my computer like this? Mine is Acer Nitro 5. I compare colors to my drawing tablet screen, because this colors is accurate. Although I said that Spyder was expensive, but if it fits my requirements I will not mind this price.
@@HolyRavelt i have tried to connect the hdmi on my laptop and nothing changed. After you calibrate the monitor and insert the HDMI try to go to display settings and make sure that the color profile is set to "sRGB display profile with display hardware configuration data derived from calibration" Hope that will help 👍🏼
@@MumtazBahri The “sRGB display profile…” becomes unmarked/(or how to say that?) When I insert hdmi. OK, thanks for helping! Additional things I can do myself.
One question. Do you think downloading and installing ICC color profile from apple or 100% sRGB expensive monitor will bring changes to my current Asus laptop which has only 80% of sRGB?
My lenovo laptop has a warm tone screen display. If I connect to a better display monitor, will the color accuracy be better than the laptop? (Like dual monitor)
better display monitor doesn't mean calibrated monitor, you need calibrated monitor or you need to calibrate what you have to get the accurate colors 👍
@@MumtazBahri can i ask? I have lenovo laptop aswell but my problem is not color but the saturation no matter how much the saturation i crank up it always look desaturate when i export it and view it somewhere else.
as I mention in the video, apple product has semi colors calibrated monitor out of the box so you are good 😉 I don't have Mac now so unfortunately it will not be possible 👍
😂😂 to be honest this device been more important than expensive camera for me since very while and my next dream is to have color checker passport but still my brain is not accepting the price 😉
@@MumtazBahri I know it but I'm still not sure how it's used, I didn't see any tutorial about it but as I think they use it exactly like the grey card 🤔
That's why I mentioned in the video to print your reference photo at professional printing office because they must use correct paper profile before they print, if u have good printer you can do same thing by loading the paper profile in the printer settings. It has to be professional printer and paper 😉 Hope that helps
But I don't have contrast slider.. And it doesn't match with my phone.. It's looks less contrasty and less saturated.. And yellows are too much on my laptop .. Means temperature.. Even the blue slider is at Max. Using i511gen hp 0103 .. Even it hurts my eyes than after my head than after 2 hours I see everything black in my room.. And those HP said because its HD.. I paid 72k inr for this laptop. If I can't customize it.. How will I use the laptop.. And I want to calibrate my laptop with my cell phone ..
well first I dont know if your phone colors are correct or not and if you cant calibrate your laptop manually then I guess it is better to invest in a color meter like what I have that will be a good investment and it can be used on many monitors the you will need to trust your laptop calibrated colors and ignore the phone coz phones mostly have more saturated and contrast screen 👍
Hi man, thanks for this tutorial. So, i've been doing any design in 3 years on my laptop with TFT monitor, i made color pallete on it. Now i bought new Laptop with IPS Panel, but the color really different (more like yellowish and more contrast) from the old one and my question is, should i calibrate on my new one? I understand the method from your video with Windows Calibrate, and when i change the slider (gamma, RGB color) from the original, is it will reset to default when i go back to calibrate color again aftet i click finish with that? That's it, thanks 😅
Hello dear, I guess the colors are better on ur new laptop because when u were editing on a bluish screen the colors become yellowish on the new screen. yes, it is better to calibrate all the screens to look accurate and the same. and when you click finish you adjustment will be saved and no need to do it again unless you reset it to default somehow. some video cards will allow you to change the RGB hue if you change that will effect the adjustment you made as well. hope that help.
@@MumtazBahri ah, i see.. anyway thanks for the answer man! I use AMD Radeon Graphic, do i need to update the driver software? Because with current version, isn't available the hue/saturation/rgb slider on it 😅 with that software, the configuration i made it will be saved, right? in case if i mess up with the color 😄
@@alfiartya23 You are welcome, I am not sure if updating driver will help but I recommend you to buy a color meter if you are serious about your work, that will be one of your best investments ;)
you can edit accurately on any calibrated monitor as long as you get the same colors if you print your photos, the only thing if the monitor is not ISP your eyes need always looking straight to the monitor at 90 degree because if you change the angle right, left, up or down colors and brightness will change too 😉
Im new to photography and if i get a spyder4 and i upload my photos from my canon it will make my photos the real deal from my camera ? Bc my images look totally clear and good on my camera screen but when i uploaded them to my laptop they looked different. So this will help ?
If you calibrate your monitor properly it will help to show the real colors so if your computer usually showing the photos too blue or to yellow after calibration you will start to see the real colors. One more thing if you are shooting RAW for sure your images will not look same as the camera when you upload them on the computer anyway coz RAW is flat and pale and when you view it in the camera you see the processed JPEG version of it 😉
hello, I followed your steps but it seems the calibration did not apply and also the part when i adjust the gray hues, it never worked. I cant tell the difference between the previous and the current setting or maybe it is broken, do you have ideas why this happen?
hey thanks for the tips, but I've got a question not sure if it's related to the matter or not but it is something weird and I need your guide on it if possible. problem is that when I do a photoshop project the output exposure is quiet satisfying but when I send that image to anyone else's device such as mobile devices or other newer model pcs and laptops it's so dark less exposure than it is on my laptop sony vaio f12Hfx 16.4 2010.
Absolutely related, I assume your laptop screen is too bright so when you edit according to your laptop screen you will under expose to get the right brightness and when u send you work to another device with proper brightness your work looks dark. I advice you to calibrate your monitor and in the meanwhile keep your eyes on the histogram while editing coz that will give u the perfect exposure no matter what is the brightness of ur laptop screen 😉👍🏻
@@Aresmusic.official You are welcome! Histogram is a tool available in the camera and most of editing programs that will show you the image data information in the black, shadows, middtones, highlight and white but this tool requires some knowledge in reading and understanding. You can research on google about the histogram for more information 👍🏻
I bought Monitor 9 months ago. now I haveing a problem. when I save any project like business card which has CMYK color mode. this file i save as to JPG. when I want to see this JPG image that time my monitor becomes black. but when my monitor was new that time It didn't black
I just got a new photographers monitor it comes calibrated. I started editing and everything looked amazing in my monitor so I sent gallery to my client. They didn’t like it because it looked darker (I realized that maybe I needed to lower my brightness 🔆 which I did) I think the contrast it’s probably high too because my images on other computers looked dull . How can I really know what’s good? My monitor is special for photographer but I feel like I have to match it to look like a Standard one. What’s the point of having a professional one if I’m messing with it. Do you know what I should do? 😢
I guess photographers monitor comes colors calibrated but brightness and contrast is something else as brightness can be different according to your room light brightness, for your photos brightness you need to watch the histogram and for the contrast I recommend you to run the color calibrate software in windows without changing the colors coz ur montor supposed to be color calibrated already, windows colors calibrate software has some photos and example will help you to set the contrast. Hope my answer helps and sorry for my late reply, I thought I answered this comment already 🙏🏻
I find that when you use a Spyder calibration there is too much of a shift when exporting to an srgb jpeg. Especially in the shadows which is annoying. Now I just manually calibrate similar to the first half of the video or calibrate using my iPad Pro screen as a reference
Might be due to wrong spyder configuration or is light changing environment. When I calibrate my monitor in different time of the day I get different results depends on how the spyder will read the room ambiance and white balance. It is tough when you use the computer in a room where the light keeps changing during the day 👍🏼
@@MumtazBahri thank you but wouldn’t the srgb adapt to the monitor profile and look the same or similar? Same with the default surface srgb profile. Looks perfect but shifts when exporting
I have issues with my monitor screen, can anyone help me?, I am retoucher when i am done with retouching the photo looks dope! But when i send it to my clients they say that the image have no color grading and looking very less saturated and yellowish and when i see it on my phone the photos looks very disgusting than my monitor i have LG MONITOR 4 SIDE BORDERLESS
I am totally exhausted 😭😭😭 my edited video in premier pro and out video played in VLC OR WINDOW MEDIA PLAYER looks good But when I transfer to android smartphone color change mostly RED COLOR, IT looks red in my pc but in smartphone it becomes ORANGE 😭😭😭 OTHERS COLORS ALSO DIFFERS SLIGHTLY HELP...
You just need make sure that the monitor that you use to edit your videos is calibrated and ignore the rest, most probably your smartphone monitor colors are too yellowish that's why reds are getting orange. just ignore the colors on your smartphone as long as you know the monitor that you use to edit your videos is calibrated.
If your monitor is calibrated and the viewer doesn't have calibrated monitor, the viewer will see the photos and videos little bit warmer or colder and that is okay. But for example if your monitor has cold colors when you will edit your photos to be warm as per your monitor and if the viewer has warm colors monitor he will find your photos too warm (red, orange, yellow) and that is not okay. Hope it was helpful 👍🏼
that make sense when it comes to colors calibration but you might have an issue with brightness and contrast coz phones screen are usually with high contrast and the brightness depends on how you set the phone brightness 😉
@@MumtazBahri i have just calibrated windows 11 with iphone screen. colors are perfect but i messed up gamma now its too contrasty and dark. I had set both brightness of my pc and iphone to 50 percent i don’t have knits calculating device to match brightness so thats an issue.
@@MumtazBahri its a native laptop display so i skipped brightness and contrast . The darkness came from adjusting gamma i will reset it to default. Thing was i was not getting yellow color perfect without adjusting gamma.
Ok update bro: I have calibrated the screen 100% matching to my iPhone and its a difference of night and day. Thanks for all the help super like and thanks.
The calibration is happening in the device software according to the video card in your device and your screen colors, so if you change the device for sure you need to calibrate 😉👍🏼
Hi, the short answer is no 🙂 unless you are sure that you phone screen is calibrated and has accurate colors and even ur mobile screen has accurate colors still brightness and contrast is also will not accurate. As per my long suffering and experience the solution is only professionally printed photo to match or using color meter 😉
Just calibrate the monitor you are using to color your art and trust it, phones mostly has more saturated colors and sometimes very cold or warm colors so don't mind that 👍🏼

@@MumtazBahri can i ask? I have lenovo laptop aswell but my problem is not color but the saturation no matter how much the saturation i crank up it always look desaturate when i export it and view it somewhere else.
Super helpful! Can you do one for Mac?
as I mention in the video, apple product has semi colors calibrated monitor out of the box so you are good 😉 I don't have Mac now so unfortunately it will not be possible 👍
Can we improve sRGB percentage value of a laptop display by colour calliberating
It is not possible in widows calibration software but might be possible if your computer display card has this option in its display software.
I just bombed into this video and it's exactly what I was looking for, the manual calibration is on point and helpful
Glad it was helpful, thank you so much dear 👍🏻
You convinced me more to open my wallet and get a calibrator 🤦🏻♂️
😂😂 to be honest this device been more important than expensive camera for me since very while and my next dream is to have color checker passport but still my brain is not accepting the price 😉
@@MumtazBahri I know it but I'm still not sure how it's used, I didn't see any tutorial about it but as I think they use it exactly like the grey card 🤔
it is so much more than gray card, if you are picky and colors geek like me you will be needing that 😂
We have a lot of strugle matching the monitors color to the printed photo...
But how do we know that the printers ink colors are calibrated as well???
That's why I mentioned in the video to print your reference photo at professional printing office because they must use correct paper profile before they print, if u have good printer you can do same thing by loading the paper profile in the printer settings.
It has to be professional printer and paper 😉
Hope that helps
But I don't have contrast slider.. And it doesn't match with my phone.. It's looks less contrasty and less saturated.. And yellows are too much on my laptop .. Means temperature.. Even the blue slider is at Max. Using i511gen hp 0103 .. Even it hurts my eyes than after my head than after 2 hours I see everything black in my room.. And those HP said because its HD.. I paid 72k inr for this laptop. If I can't customize it.. How will I use the laptop.. And I want to calibrate my laptop with my cell phone ..
well first I dont know if your phone colors are correct or not and if you cant calibrate your laptop manually then I guess it is better to invest in a color meter like what I have that will be a good investment and it can be used on many monitors the you will need to trust your laptop calibrated colors and ignore the phone coz phones mostly have more saturated and contrast screen 👍
Can we have a copy of the calibrated photo or where to find some online
I didn't what you really want and how this will work but I am sure noting will help you unless you this A to Z on ur device.
Nice bro..
Thank you very much dear 👍🏼
Hi man, thanks for this tutorial. So, i've been doing any design in 3 years on my laptop with TFT monitor, i made color pallete on it. Now i bought new Laptop with IPS Panel, but the color really different (more like yellowish and more contrast) from the old one and my question is, should i calibrate on my new one? I understand the method from your video with Windows Calibrate, and when i change the slider (gamma, RGB color) from the original, is it will reset to default when i go back to calibrate color again aftet i click finish with that? That's it, thanks 😅
Hello dear,
I guess the colors are better on ur new laptop because when u were editing on a bluish screen the colors become yellowish on the new screen.
yes, it is better to calibrate all the screens to look accurate and the same.
and when you click finish you adjustment will be saved and no need to do it again unless you reset it to default somehow.
some video cards will allow you to change the RGB hue if you change that will effect the adjustment you made as well.
hope that help.
@@MumtazBahri ah, i see.. anyway thanks for the answer man! I use AMD Radeon Graphic, do i need to update the driver software? Because with current version, isn't available the hue/saturation/rgb slider on it 😅 with that software, the configuration i made it will be saved, right? in case if i mess up with the color 😄
@@alfiartya23 You are welcome,
I am not sure if updating driver will help but
I recommend you to buy a color meter if you are serious about your work, that will be one of your best investments ;)
@@MumtazBahri Alright, thank you very much for your advice man! 😄👍
@@MumtazBahri last question, do you know how to reset that windows calibration color to default settings after i change it? 😅
It is possible to edit photos accurately on a 55% sRGB monitor if you calibrate it correctly?
you can edit accurately on any calibrated monitor as long as you get the same colors if you print your photos, the only thing if the monitor is not ISP your eyes need always looking straight to the monitor at 90 degree because if you change the angle right, left, up or down colors and brightness will change too 😉
@@MumtazBahri thank you very much 🤝
Im new to photography and if i get a spyder4 and i upload my photos from my canon it will make my photos the real deal from my camera ? Bc my images look totally clear and good on my camera screen but when i uploaded them to my laptop they looked different. So this will help ?
If you calibrate your monitor properly it will help to show the real colors so if your computer usually showing the photos too blue or to yellow after calibration you will start to see the real colors.
One more thing if you are shooting RAW for sure your images will not look same as the camera when you upload them on the computer anyway coz RAW is flat and pale and when you view it in the camera you see the processed JPEG version of it 😉
@@MumtazBahri finnally. Someone that knows what they are talking about.
Thanks buddy, appreciate it 👍🏼
hello, I followed your steps but it seems the calibration did not apply and also the part when i adjust the gray hues, it never worked. I cant tell the difference between the previous and the current setting or maybe it is broken, do you have ideas why this happen?
hey thanks for the tips, but I've got a question not sure if it's related to the matter or not but it is something weird and I need your guide on it if possible. problem is that when I do a photoshop project the output exposure is quiet satisfying but when I send that image to anyone else's device such as mobile devices or other newer model pcs and laptops it's so dark less exposure than it is on my laptop sony vaio f12Hfx 16.4 2010.
Absolutely related, I assume your laptop screen is too bright so when you edit according to your laptop screen you will under expose to get the right brightness and when u send you work to another device with proper brightness your work looks dark.
I advice you to calibrate your monitor and in the meanwhile keep your eyes on the histogram while editing coz that will give u the perfect exposure no matter what is the brightness of ur laptop screen 😉👍🏻
@@MumtazBahri Oh my God thanks for the reply! but hey what is histogram?!
@@Aresmusic.official You are welcome!
Histogram is a tool available in the camera and most of editing programs that will show you the image data information in the black, shadows, middtones, highlight and white but this tool requires some knowledge in reading and understanding.
You can research on google about the histogram for more information 👍🏻
@@MumtazBahri wow man! you're highly skilled I'd admit! thanks again and I highly appreciate your time and kindness. cheers
Always welcome 🙏🏻
I bought Monitor 9 months ago. now I haveing a problem. when I save any project like business card which has CMYK color mode. this file i save as to JPG. when I want to see this JPG image that time my monitor becomes black. but when my monitor was new that
time It didn't black
I just got a new photographers monitor it comes calibrated. I started editing and everything looked amazing in my monitor so I sent gallery to my client. They didn’t like it because it looked darker (I realized that maybe I needed to lower my brightness 🔆 which I did) I think the contrast it’s probably high too because my images on other computers looked dull .
How can I really know what’s good? My monitor is special for photographer but I feel like I have to match it to look like a Standard one. What’s the point of having a professional one if I’m messing with it.
Do you know what I should do? 😢
I guess photographers monitor comes colors calibrated but brightness and contrast is something else as brightness can be different according to your room light brightness, for your photos brightness you need to watch the histogram and for the contrast I recommend you to run the color calibrate software in windows without changing the colors coz ur montor supposed to be color calibrated already, windows colors calibrate software has some photos and example will help you to set the contrast.
Hope my answer helps and sorry for my late reply, I thought I answered this comment already 🙏🏻
Subscribed! :)
Thanks dear 😊🤗
I find that when you use a Spyder calibration there is too much of a shift when exporting to an srgb jpeg. Especially in the shadows which is annoying. Now I just manually calibrate similar to the first half of the video or calibrate using my iPad Pro screen as a reference
Might be due to wrong spyder configuration or is light changing environment.
When I calibrate my monitor in different time of the day I get different results depends on how the spyder will read the room ambiance and white balance.
It is tough when you use the computer in a room where the light keeps changing during the day 👍🏼
@@MumtazBahri thank you but wouldn’t the srgb adapt to the monitor profile and look the same or similar? Same with the default surface srgb profile. Looks perfect but shifts when exporting
I have issues with my monitor screen, can anyone help me?, I am retoucher when i am done with retouching the photo looks dope! But when i send it to my clients they say that the image have no color grading and looking very less saturated and yellowish and when i see it on my phone the photos looks very disgusting than my monitor i have LG MONITOR 4 SIDE BORDERLESS
nice photograph bro
Thanks bro 🙏🏻 one of my favorites 😉👍🏼
@@MumtazBahri you are always welcome bro
I am totally exhausted 😭😭😭 my edited video in premier pro and out video played in VLC OR WINDOW MEDIA PLAYER looks good
But when I transfer to android smartphone color change
mostly RED COLOR, IT looks red in my pc but in smartphone it becomes ORANGE
😭😭😭
OTHERS COLORS ALSO DIFFERS SLIGHTLY
HELP...
You just need make sure that the monitor that you use to edit your videos is calibrated and ignore the rest, most probably your smartphone monitor colors are too yellowish that's why reds are getting orange. just ignore the colors on your smartphone as long as you know the monitor that you use to edit your videos is calibrated.
Im new on stock potoglapi (i say Photography this way), im wondering if on my scren the photo is gud but is it still gud on the reviewer's monitor?
If your monitor is calibrated and the viewer doesn't have calibrated monitor, the viewer will see the photos and videos little bit warmer or colder and that is okay.
But for example if your monitor has cold colors when you will edit your photos to be warm as per your monitor and if the viewer has warm colors monitor he will find your photos too warm (red, orange, yellow) and that is not okay.
Hope it was helpful 👍🏼
i dont have a printed picture can i calibrate with a reference from iphone screen as you said it is 95 percent calibrtaed??
that make sense when it comes to colors calibration but you might have an issue with brightness and contrast coz phones screen are usually with high contrast and the brightness depends on how you set the phone brightness 😉
@@MumtazBahri i have just calibrated windows 11 with iphone screen. colors are perfect but i messed up gamma now its too contrasty and dark. I had set both brightness of my pc and iphone to 50 percent i don’t have knits calculating device to match brightness so thats an issue.
That's what I was talking about, u can redo it and and watch out for these issues or ignore brightness and contrast and leave it to default.
@@MumtazBahri its a native laptop display so i skipped brightness and contrast . The darkness came from adjusting gamma i will reset it to default. Thing was i was not getting yellow color perfect without adjusting gamma.
Ok update bro: I have calibrated the screen 100% matching to my iPhone and its a difference of night and day. Thanks for all the help super like and thanks.
Will this calibration work on 45% NTSC laptop display?? Will it result in good colour accuracy? Please reply
If i Calibrate my monitor on the pc then plug it to other device it will be the same or i have to calibrate it again?
The calibration is happening in the device software according to the video card in your device and your screen colors, so if you change the device for sure you need to calibrate 😉👍🏼
Hey Can we use our phone instead of a printed picture my phone has AMOLED screen will it help
Hi, the short answer is no 🙂 unless you are sure that you phone screen is calibrated and has accurate colors and even ur mobile screen has accurate colors still brightness and contrast is also will not accurate.
As per my long suffering and experience the solution is only professionally printed photo to match or using color meter 😉
Nice tutorial! Where you getting your printing done? I'm in the UAE.
Thank you, this was printed at art plus gallery in Al Quoz, Dubai 👍🏼 they have so many creative options
I always face a problem when I make designs in laptop, the when I view the in phone the colors are too saturated:/ can you help me?
Just calibrate the monitor you are using to color your art and trust it, phones mostly has more saturated colors and sometimes very cold or warm colors so don't mind that 👍🏼
@@MumtazBahrithanks man actually im a designer and animator and you know colors are one of the most imp part of it. thanks for sharing!
Always welcome 👍🏼
