Odd...my OTT lights looked too purple for me, so I dumped them. I use the GTI Soft-View Desktop viewer and have been happy enough with it. I am nowhere near the technical level of most of you, but wanted to ask a possibly bizarre question:

Does anyone else out there see color differently with one eye open at a time? I sometimes see an obvious red-blue shift (like I am both coming and going at the same time on a galactic scale!) that no doctor has told me to worry about. I have taken extensive colorblindness tests because of this concern, but never using one eye at a time.... Together, these orbs can retouch just fine.

Just a curious newbie to this forum. Sorry if it's already been brought up.

When both myself, and Bob McCurdy, one of the owners of GTI, report that the
light source appears to be getting bluer when intensity is reduced, then I
believe that our eyes are correct - whether "bluer" is indicated by color
temperature, or CRI, or whatever - it is BLUER. That is what really counts.
If we gathered 1000 people, and 99% reported it was bluer, and instruments
reported it had a lower color temperture, I would say there was something
wrong with the instrumentation protocol.


By the way, I have an OTT lite here, and the eye-one reports that it has a
CRI of 99, and a temp of 5003K. Compared to the GTI, it looks green. I am
not sure what green is on the color temperature scale, but I have not been
able to get my monitor to match it. So I don't know what that means.
