Great video Patrick! Since I have NEC Monitors, I personally use their integrated Spectraview II calibrator and software to do my monitor calibration as it is pretty much automated. One thing you "might" be overlooking is the color temperature and brightness of the room lighting used to evaluate your final prints? It could be just the video, but it looks to me like in the background you may have off color walls and/or low color temperature lighting turned on which can drastically affect how the prints actually relate to the monitor rendition? In my case I use a D65 light viewing booth next to my monitors to make sure I am evaluating at the same color temperature and brightness. Just a thought to consider.

fstoppers. Thanks for creating this video - it's perfect for photographers who print at home. I use almost this exact workflow with my Canon imagePROGRAF Pro-4000; however I go one stage further and purchase custom printer/paper profiles from Freestyle Photo in Los Angeles. On the face of it the profiles are expensive at $100 each; however the results are truly amazing! I think you would do the industry an enormous favor if you create a similar workflow for photographers who print through a lab rather than printing at home. That last step of sending images to a lab can be incredibly frustrating since you don't have the same level of control. This is particularly true for photographers who create albums since the reprint cost (and time) is so high!

@Fstoppers are you still using this method in 2024? Did you see any changes when it became Calibrite branded? Have you used profiles on the new Canon 300 or 1000 and was it still as evident? Thanks for all the testing and walk-throughs on items like this, flashes, strobes, mics, etc. You really help us folks in the trenches out with all the time you put into these videos!

Overall a good video. Here's some nitpicks: 1:08 Ideally you don't want any shadowing from fingers casting across the patches for the Passport software reading. 8:10 You used As Shot WB and didn't sync the WB from the other image with the chart 12:00 Can't you print both charts in advance, rather than one at a time and waiting in between? That's tedious! 15:20 Another "ideally", having a viewing booth like a 5000°k Just Normlicht will save you lots of headaches because you can dim it down to match your monitor's brightness, and it's a constant color instead of the changing conditions throughout the day/night. It's damn overpriced, but it makes life much easier when it's sitting next to your monitor.

12:00 It has to be like that b/c the first print you scan, the software adjusts calibration to print the second print. Then you scan the second print (which you'll notice are different colors) and then it creates a finalized profile based on the second scan.

What I hate is, my Colormunki is able to calibrate the monitor, scanner, and my printer. But NOW using it with a 4k monitor, it looks like a 640 by 480 software GUI interface that is completely unreadable and unusable. So now, Xrite Custom Support tells me that I need to buy the iStudio device that's $500!!!!! It does EVERYTHING my (already purchased) Colormunki does - but has the 4k display software GUI. Sounds like a class action suit for this game..... This seems like you haven't even updated the colormunki and iStudio device technology in over 10 years - it just seems stinking archaic for $500! Read people's reviews, it's true. Then people are forced to jump in the $1,200 range. This is very disappointing from xrite.

I am trying to decide between an I1Display pro ( for only screencallibration ) and a colormunki photo or I1 studio ( for screen callibration and printerprofiling )but have some questions about this I1 studio device.. I know the devices serve different needs, but im trying to decide wheter or not to print my photo's at home on my Pixma 925 printer or sent the photos to a photolab If you have a colormunki photo , the I1 software will work with it too. I even understand it's the same hardware. What is the difference ( if any )between the devices? In this video (kzbin.info/www/bejne/p2qQeaWwbZ6DgbM) from xrite i understand the 'munki photo'is retired..Does this mean there wont be updates in the future for this device?

Also, light and pigment produce different colors, so what you see in a monitor is light color (additive, rgb) and what a printer produces is pigment color (subtractive, cmyk or even 10 inks), so there will always be a slight difference between what we see in a screen and what is printed.

Great video! I've been dreading monitor calibration for 3 years until I saw your video. I design in my home in Illustrator and Photoshop on an iMac for my sign biz. Then, I put the file on a flash drive, walk to my shop, stuff the flash drive into a windoz puter with the sloppiest, nastiest monitor I've ever seen. The file is ripped on Versaworks. Versaworks then sends the ripped file to my 54" Roland printer. I get great prints but I don't know how or why. Dumb Luck? I do 52" x 96" almost every day. The Windoz is old...something 7. The Monitor is old too but it all works. I thought another new iMac for $3500 was the answer but spending $500 for an i1 Studio is something I shoulda done when I didn't have the dough. Thanks for making it an easy choice! Because of my success, the data must travel successfully in the flash drive?

Really good video. Two little points. For the Color Checker Passport, you are not obliged to download the Lightroom export preset unless you want to do this in LR with automation ( and you should if you use LR). The application itself can create the DNG camera profile which will be loaded into LR. There is only one advantage to loading the raw chart in the application: Dual Illuminant profiles for use in LR / ACR. Second point; as long as the chart is shot in reasonable light the white point is ignored so performing a WB in LR then exporting with the export X-Rite preset will not have any influence on the profile build. Yes you will have to WB after the profile is built and applied, but is not encoded into the DNG profile.

Fine, but the light colour temperature of your room bulbs can make a huge difference when analysing a print, if they are not 5000K bulbs, you will not be able to see the colours of the print accurately. Did you take this in consideration?

Great video, Patrick. I've struggled with my prints not matching my monitor for years; i've used the i1 Display monitor calibration device for years but always used the paper manufacturer profiles for my printer. And on almost every print I make, I have to do significant editing (removing a subtle green cast) to every image. Very tedious and expensive, and has made me hate printing. With your tutorial, I'm ready to go out and buy this device so I can accurately calibrate my monitor and create accurate color profiles for my printer. I use an Epson P800 printer and I use an iMac with extra iMac monitor. As you may or may not know, the iMacs do not have the same flexibility in color / contrast / color adjustments as other generic monitors. I'm hoping that this calibration device will get me "close enough" with my iMac displays. Do you have any experience with this calibration hardware / software with Macs? Thanks again. I'm really pumped to purchase one of these devices and see if I can improve my images (and attitude).

Watching the video you image looked dark. but when you downloaded the plugin I noticed your Exposure was increased +45 and your shadow was increased +36? Why not zeroing all setting adjustments? and having a darker exposure give you a bad calibration? What Brightness numbers are you looking for in the grey patch you clicked on for your calibration? How long should your computer be on before calibrating you display?

Laptop screens are known to be poor at correct colours and brightness, especially TN panels. Some higher end HP/Dell/ASUS etc use IPS panels with better colour accuracy. Mac laptops are known to be good. Phones are the same tbh. They are always overly bright and saturated. You could calibrate your laptop but very difficult to do your phones, though some some android phones do have apps to tweak colours. The problem is, the rest of the instrgram world are not necessarily looking at calibrated screens, so its hit and miss.

Hello Patrick, this is one of the most concise and accurate explanations of color calibration I have ever watched. I am new to this and there is still something I do not fully understand. I understand the point of calibrating the monitor, but the printer+paper? I mean, I use a particular paper (e.g, matte, glossy, metallic, etc.) because it gives me that particular look to the photo I want. If a photo looks the same regardless the printer/paper combination, what is the point of using different papers?

A few people doesn't understand the point of printer calibration. Stock profiles from Canon or Epson are pretty good, but if you just print with them, you ain't gonna get the same look, like you have on your actual monitor. Maybe it's better, but maybe it's not. You have to experiment, until you get the decent result. But if you calibrate your monitor AND your printer together, you gonna see exactly the same colors on the monitor and on the print, and so, you can colorgrade way easier. You have to deside, is it okay or not.

white may be overexposed. Imagine your WB causes following proportion between your colors (oversimiplified for the sake of example): R 100% G 125% B 150% (your camera is set to lower temperature than the light source, and so the image is too cold, and red component is much weaker) If you underexpose heavily, then on your 8-bit monitor you may see the white patch as 170,204,255 (not white at all). In this case lightroom would be able to derive WB correctly. Basically, if you underexpose your white turns to gray. If you do not underexpose, the white square will be lighter, say 200,245,255. However, that B channel was already maxed out to 255 in the underexposed image, and in this new image B componenet remains 255, while other 2 a higher. And so the white patch will appear to lightroom warmer than any shade of gray on the same picture.

1:08 in when the color checker is shown next to Erica's face did you correct the color? If so, then why not the luminosity?
