Would anyone mind sharing a fool-proof technique for testing a given
calibration scheme as far as conserving the maximum discrete levels of a
monitor luminance range?
I admit I have never taken the time to study the phenomenon in any great
length but, in fairness, I have to admit I'm always puzzled when I read the
informed opinions of so many respected list participants, over the years, in
this List, that such and such technique is less optimal or leads to more
quantization of monitor levels than another.
I'm especially refering to the notion that calibrating to an LCD monitor's
native white point is supposedly "better" than calibrating to a given white
point to reduce quantization artifacts.
And there is also the notion that "hardware-calibration", inside an LCD
monitor's own 10, 12 or 14 bit LUTs is so much better than
"software-calibration", inside the computer's video RAM.
I'm all sold on these ideas.
But is there an analytical technique one could use to compare, simply, the
consequences of one calibration approach vs another?
Something that is not considered commercial secret sauce, that could be
shared on this List?
Maybe a simple experiment, in Photoshop?
