Hi,
I have changed my laptop recently and I have troubles in calibrating the
monitor properly.
It's one of the new Apple Macbooks (Aluminum) with led-backlit 13" glossy
display (the matte one is not available anymore - unfortunately).
In the past two years I've always used an Xrite i1Display 2 to calibrate my
monitors and it performs nicely on other pieces of equipment.
The problem is that with the new Macbook there is a big red shift in the
calibration, meaning that all colours are more reddish in the end and it's a
strong, very perceivable, difference.
So, I am trying to find a way to calibrate this monitor as accurately as
possible for printing purposes (I always print in a professional lab with
their profiles, so I don't need to worry about printer profiling). I was
wondering whether I'd need a spectrophotometer (like the i1Pro - i1Basic) to
do the job, or a colorimeter suited for led displays like the Spyder3elite
would do a better job.
What has been your experience so far? Any advices?
Alex Zanardi
