This was my first attempt at calibrating a display. I used CalMan Home and the enhanced spyder 3. I have been reading and studying these threads along with various guides for dummies/newbies. The guides were most appreciated and I know those of you who have spent the time to write them receive no compensation except the thank you from people like me. Anyway i will post my before and after here for comments and suggestions for how to improve on what i have. It actually wasn't too bad to start with compared to some pre cal charts i have seen on here.
It was done in custom mode with warm temp and all enhancements off.
ONe question I have is that of brightness/black level. My brightness setting before cal was at 66 based on ths avshd709 pluge pattern with 17 just visible. I adjusted brightness to tweak my luminance curve and now my brightness on the pluge is 20. should I go with the pluge and live with the curve being a little off?
One other problem i had was that when i did the rgb cuts and drvs in the service menu and got them on they were off when i checked them out of the service menu. Is that normal? I remember reading from someone on here who is a pro calibrator that they had that prob but i don't remember where the post was or who it was.
Hoping to hear some feedback either way good or bad. I need to know what my mistakes are so I can improve on them in the future.
