"The error seems to be much less with LCDs, which is one reason I'll
never buy another CRT."
I have had some bad experiences trying to profile some LCD displays
which are you recommending to your clients?
"This is why I continue to freely endorse what is by far the best
monitor profiling package in the world - ProfileCity's ICC Display. It's
the
only software with which I can regularly and easily create a stunningly
close match between ANY display (CRT or LCD) and the viewing booth."
I agree its a good product. I am not sure why you feel it to be so
superior to other packages though. Maybe you can explain your work flow
a little more completely.
"The Kelvin scale only applies to light sources like tungsten bulbs,
that act as Plankian 'black body' radiators"
You are absolutely correct here. I could never figure that one out and
assumed it was some sort of averaged reading.
"Issue number 2 (above) throws into question the choice of 5000K as a
'standard daylight' white reference (back in 1963 on a rooftop in
Rochester
NY)."
Yeah go figure. Even the Eastman guys have trouble explaining that
one. Its a rare day in Rochester that reads 5000k. Very close to CIE
B though, but CIE D65 repersents daylight. Some standard is better
than none though and they did it first.
