Hello all,—
I am editing my photos on a laptop (yes, I know that a laptop screen is suboptimal for this), presenting them on a LCD TV screen (Sony KDL-32EX402) and some of them are to be printed on an inkjet printer or a commercial printing service.
I experienced that most jpegs coming from cameras are displayed satisfactory on the laptop as well as on the TV, and also on printouts.
But the best pictures come from high contrast photos (such as back-light or dawn). I shoot them in RAW and reduce the high contrast by editing them on the laptop. These photos either look well on the laptop but are much too bright on the TV or are OK on the TV and much too dark on the laptop.
I purchased a colorimeter (Spyder 3 Elite) and started calibrating the monitors (both the laptop and the TV). I found that using the default Spyder 3 setting of gamma 2.2 for the monitor does not solve the problem. If I set gamma to 1.4 in Spyder 3, the photos are looking quite similar on the laptop and the TV, but now they are looking too dark on other PCs. (I did not yet test printout of these photos.)
Now my question: Which gamma setting in Spyder 3 is preferable for calibrating the laptop monitor?
Or, how can I achive good results on the TV as well as on printouts?
Thanks for any hints,
Wilfried Hennings
