Re: display profile colour cast

Lamour,

I recently helped someone profile their MacBook (using Eye-One Match and an Eye-One Display 2 colorimeter) and ran into the same problem. If I remember correctly, though, I was initially using "native" gamma and color temp, and then switched to gamma 2.2 and a CCT of 6500K, but perhaps I'm recalling this backwards. Try playing with the settings in the software. My first attempt also gave a horrible purple-blue cast. It was not subtle. Fortunately, things eventually came around.

unhappy with the results.

An Lab or AdobeRGB (1998) grey ramp displayed in Photoshop looks
distinctly purplish. I've checked the calibration by assigning the
monitor profile to the same ramp, and it looks nice and neutral and
smooth. I'm calibrating to a 6500K white point, gamma 2.2 using
ProfileMaker 5 and an EyeOne Pro.

I a bit of a newbie and I suspect I'm doing something obvious wrong -
any ideas where?
