RE: Monitor White Point
Why feel compelled to use 5000K or 6500K? I found my best match to my gti
viewing booth with my Lacie monitor set to 5500K, calibrating with Prove It.
Where 6500 looked too cool to me with Adobe RGB, and 5000 too warm, 5500
matches closely the reading of the actual color temperature of my viewing
booth, and side by side with proof on screen and in the booth it is very
faithful. The extra 500K bump is just enough for the average good
flat-screen Mits monitor to eliminate the yellow appearance of 5000K.
