Even if it feels too dim at first, give your eyes 10 minutes to adjust and it will look just fine. Not too bright at night time, not too dim at daytime. It is best to calibrate to the brightness you will actually use, but changing it afterwards will not introduce huge inaccuracities. On some monitors that means 80% brightness, on some 10.
For sRGB content i like to calibrate to 100 nits. Is that “too bright”? Should I calibrate it the way it is or is that going to “hurt” the calibration process? Is it better to calibrate at 120cd and then change the brightness after… I assume not, correct? Is it possible for my monitor to be more accurate being less bright (i.e., with the brightness level at around 120 or 100?)?īrightness is entirely dependant on your viewing environment and personal preference. What about white level, should I stick to the 80-120cd I see recommended everywhere? Before buying this, I always used my monitor at 50 brightness (also the default after settings “factory reset”) and that is measured to be around 180cd.
Do this for all 4 modes and pick the one that ends up closest to 2.2 going forward. After it's done measuring you get a small report giving you some basic information about the measured contrast, whitepoint, gamma, etc. Select gamma 1 and then in Displa圜al click on "uncalibrated monitor report". You can easily test it using Displa圜al and your colorimeter: So, which should I choose? The “no adjusment” (mode 4) or the one it defaults to after reseting the settings (mode 2)? However, in the display's manual, it’s said that “If it’s not necessary to adjust the gamma settings, choose Mode 4”. Modes 1, 2 and 3 are progressively darker (1 being the brightest and 2 being the default which is selected after reseting the settings). The gamma settings on the OSD are just labeled “Mode (1, 2, 3 or 4)”. I’ve watched the Hardware Unboxed tutorial video on calibrating displays and it’s said there to basically reset the monitor settings and disable any kind of enhancement, which I’ve done: in my case, black level stabilizer is set to 0, no energy saving mode is enabled, no motion blur reduction/backlight strobing, ‘tho Freesync is enabled (also have an AMD GPU).
