Monitor Calibration and Digital Photography
I recently discovered that my computer monitor has been badly mis-calibrated for handling digital photos. As a result many of the pictures in my photoblog are oversaturated, too dark, or both. My apologies for all the orange skin and murky shadows (especially if you’re one of the people in the pictures!). I plan to work on getting the photos that have been posted so far fixed over this coming weekend.
Proper gamma correction is something every digital photo buff should know about. You can find a quick overview in this old Webmonkey article, and more detailed information on this page. For easy gamma correction on Wintel machines, I recommend QuickGamma. Read the help file first, and you should have your monitor correctly calibrated in no time.
