Correlated Color temperature doesn't tell you how accurate the
white point target is being met. It's a projection of 2 dimensions
onto 1 dimension (the daylight or Plankian locus), so you can have a
white point that is exactly 5000 degrees when projected on
the daylight locus, but is many delta E away from the white target.
Graeme, I agree.
But sadly different monitor calibration softwares mix(ed) up the use
of terms like "color temperature 5000 degrees Kelvin" and "D50",
which often leads to confusion.
To repeat what you said, but in a very unscientific way:
Hitting the color temperature 5000 degrees Kelvin means nothing more
than adjusting the blue-yellow level. (1 dimension, correlated color
temperature)
Hitting the D50 should mean: adjusting the blue-yellow level, but also
the
red-green level. (2 dimension)
