The thread of this topic has lead me to another question...related to the
Barco Calibrator monitors. Is "Uncorrected Gamma" the same as native?
There are two choices in the Barco utility..."uncorrected" and "linear". I
am assuming (perhaps erroneously) that a linear gamma would be a gamma of
1.0 and that "native" and "uncorrected" are the same thing.
I'd like to hear more about why a native gamma would be theoretically
"better" then a gamma of 2.2 (or whatever your preference is). As a
devil's advocate kind of question, why not use the native whitepoint as
well?
