RE: filmscanners: Clarity! Dual Monitor Hell (Heaven!)



One possible response might be that some people keep the working image on the primary monitor and the original image along with the palettes and tool bars on the secondary monitor.  This original image is used as a comparative reference when making changes to the working image.  Hence they would like accurate color match between the two.  Moreover, be advised that some use three and even four monitors: one for the working image, one for the original image, one or two for tools and palettes..

I'll venture another dumb question. Regarding the dual monitors, if the primary is for the image(s) and the secondary is for the palettes and tool bars, why worry about an imperfect color match? I would think that an eyeball setting of the secondary should be plenty good enough.

Embedding profiles in your images is a topic in and of itself - I would you
suggest you first read Dan Margulis's Professional Photoshop book first (I
don't know if the book is out for 6 yet or not).

As for the difference in images between the two monitors, the first thing to
do is to calibrate both monitors.  You can set the black point using the
information at http://www.aim-dtp.net/aim/calibration/index.htm

If I am not mistaken, Adobe has within it a calibration mechanism from there
on.

| Ok, Ive been on this list for some time now, and understand most
| of the technical stuff (Im a computing lecturer so that side of
| things is easy). However, Ive just got Photoshop 6, and a
| Dualhead Matrox Card - with two monitors - one old 20 inch
| heavy use, and one new 17 inch shiny new!
|
| Ive just realised to my great pleasure that dual monitor
| setups are fantastic - but Ive also realised that the tweaking
| that Ive been doing to scans on my old screen mean nothing.
| To my horror they transform themselves to a whole new
| image on the new screen. Ugh - drag an image from one to
| the other and BOOM - it changes dramatically. When you see it
| head to head you realise that it makes a real difference.
|
| Now heres my question - what do I need to do to keep the best
| archival quality image data in terms of profile embedding?
| Any preferences out there or is it safe to go with the Adobe
| ones ... hints tips et al welcomed.
