Before we get into managing your monitor, lets talk about your room situation. Problem with all monitors is that they are too bright and their colors are not consistent to a common reference color. Hence better correlation in color from scene to camera to monitor. Some of these new monitors can actually display wider color gamuts (Color space, remember from the first Blog, ) than the Adobe 1998 Color space. Instead of understanding what these mean, just remember IPS = best for photo editing. Acronyms you will see are TN, VA and IPS. To add to the confusion, LCDs can vary in the manner of display of their crystals. These earlier LCD screens were backlight with a CCFL (Cold Cathode Fluorescent Lamp) but have been replaced by LED (Light Emitting Diode) backlighting. The CRT (think your old television set before they went flat screen) was the way to go until the early 90’s when the TFT LCD screens starting coming out (TFT= Thin Film Transistor, LCD= Liquid Crystal Display). Monitors have come a long way from the first monitors I used that would show only text and were one bit.
