Eizo Hardware Calibration

[@AmitBarArt]

Clear information. Thanks a lot!

[@JairusNOUVEL1]

Sir, you don't know how many time you have saved my life !! :D , thx a lot , Keep it up

[@flyingcub]

excellent introduction, thank you

[@satishpandurangan2803]

Sorry typo the monitor has Rec709, DCI, Custom mode setting

[@SolonasM]

Very informative tutorial,cheers! One thing,ColorNavigator is NOT free..

[@Kilpark448]

Thank you for your reply. Do you have a video that you export ICC profile that you created by color Navigator to iPad ?

[@haisamjab]

Thank you very much. Is it normal having worked usually with cold temperature set up monitors to see it yellowish when I even jump to 6500k? Is it perceptual or there could be something wrong with my Eizo?

[@Jana-BrandenburgerPflanze]

very good tutorial !!! short question: I've a conrast rate of 473:1 ... very different from the one shown in the video. Could that be okay?

[@satishpandurangan2803]

Thank you for the reply. How do I calibrate the Eizo if I am using it as a reference monitor for color grading using Davinci Resolve ?

[@geminisystems6843]

Although Video editing is not my specialty, I would say the color balance that you get when profiling your screen is the most important, and does not depend on which mode you will use. I would choose something that corresponds with something the end user will be viewing the edited result on. The good thing about monitor calibration is that balances the monitor's behavior, without limiting the gamut. As Monitor profiles are not much work to make, I would suggest you try the different modes of your monitor and see if you can spot a difference. Likely they will be the same after profiling is completed.

What Display mode settings should I select before calibartion. I has Rec709, DCI etc.? Thank you

[@geminisystems6843]

Preferably you would use a mode that does as little as possible, or when available choose "off" or "Wide gamut" Depending on your monitor, the software will be able to disable any adjustments that are done automatically. It is of course important to use the same mode after profiling as was set before, and not change any settings such as brightness and contrast, as that would negate the calibration.

Should I export ICC profile that is created by Color Navigator to MacBook Pro to match color between them?

[@ColorPlazaTV]

Color Navigator only allows you to profile your Eizo monitor. To profile your Macbook, you would have to use an external solution.

Hi there! Thank you for the video. One question: what if the DeltaE maximum is above 6 in den validation? What can I do to reach a value under 3?

[@ColorPlazaTV]

You're welcome. A dE of more than 3 should not occur in principal. If you were using i1Profiler, you could iterate the profile to get a lower dE, but I don't think the HardWare calibration offers iteration. Are you using D50? I would try it again and see if the same dE occurs: might have been a one time error.

[@enthasia]

Thank you! I tried it once again and now its under 3.

Hi How can I match color between EIZO monitor and MacBook Pro screen?

[@ColorPlazaTV]

Hi Kil, the theoretical answer to that is; by measuring both screens and creating a profile for both. Although theoretically, this will work perfect, the actual result might still look different, as the native color, dynamic range and color gamut of these two displays are much different. You do of course need an external device (i1 Display or similar) to do so; the Eizo monitors with built in calibration eye can only calibrate themselves.
