Question about Lab and monitors....

Hello....

Let's see....

Trying to know the fidelity of some monitors I made the next test... see fit

With my Spectrolino and the Measure tool of Gretag (spot option) I measured
the color of a flat image on Photoshop. The image was create in Lab (for
example 54/81/70). The readout of spectrolino was 48.5/65.6/57.8. Ok, de DE94
is 6.46. After that, with the ColorPicker I did the next test. I configured
with the Icc of the Monitor in point... and insert the same Lab values like
"lab input". The result was another different color (52/69/60 DE94 3.4)

What means that????

a) The monitor is not properly calibrated.

b) ColorPicker tool is not a god tool to predict.

c) both answers are right

d)the Icc is not god, because if not, the ColorPicker should give the measured
lab (more or less)

e) The limitation of the CRTs allows these type of confusion...

f) Photosop fail with the lab colors...

d) I'm lost, confused and numb... ;o)



Thanks for your kindness... and sorry my poor English...

Cheers
