The color cast problem has plagued photographers of digital photography. This problem is actually very simple, that is, the hue of a computer screen can never be accurately displayed. Although many manufacturers have been working to develop the latest color correction technologies, such as Apple's Coloursync and Kodak's PRECISION, experience tells the photographer that the display still fails to display 100% accurate colors. This poses a problem for photographers. Many inconveniences in creation...
Actually, there are already some professional monitors on the market that can automatically detect hue and adjust the color value. Although it is still not completely WYSIWYG, it is more than the monitor that we generally use. In fact, these professional-grade monitors do provide users with greater tone-setting flexibility.
RGB tone display
Most monitors on the market today are designed for RGB display. The principle is similar to that of TVs in our homes. All three colors are mixed to produce different colors. In addition, RGB (R red, G green, and B blue) are selected. It is mainly due to the fact that the color gamut and color tone that RGB can display are wider than the four-color color gamut of CMYK used in traditional printing, and the color tone is also relatively clear. Therefore, RGB is more suitable for a variety of screen displays. However, since many printing media such as computers use CMYK (four colors, cyan, magenta, yellow, and black, respectively) as the printing standard, many photographers need to convert the completed work into CMYK, but Some shades may or may exceed the original color gamut during the conversion process, rendering the color gray, and more likely affect the printed color. So, every time a photographer really wants to convert a finished work into a printed matter, many photographers and even many home computer users go through the process of converting RGB to CMYK (usually done in Photo-paint or Photoshop. In the conversion period, problems arise during the conversion... The best solution is actually... The experienced photographers tell us that they will prepare the Pantone color discrimination in advance, using the Pantone tone as the standard of use, but the Pantone tone From the screen point of view, there is still a certain distance from the actual hue on the color discrimination. Therefore, many photographers will put their objects in front of the screen to compare with their experience, so that they can be adjusted accurately on the screen and on the output. Try to minimize the error.
Color correction with Gamma also helps
In addition, if you use Photoshop frequently, Photoshop's built-in “Gama Gamma†setting can also adjust the monitor you use to an appropriate value, usually this value is 1.8, although 1.8 will really make your monitor look It's a little dark, but this value does make your monitor closest to the tone of the original photo. In addition, if your monitor is reddish or bluish, you can also adjust the color difference of the screen on the Gamma panel. The method is very simple, just adjust the handle on the control panel. In fact, when you buy any product related to digital imaging, it is often accompanied by software that adjusts color. After adjustment, your scanner can scan accurate colors. Therefore, your monitor is also very necessary. Do the adjustment. Because the calibrated display will perform better regardless of the color or image contrast and tone. Summing up accurate adjustments is very important for both image designers and photographers. If the monitor's color tone is pre-adjusted when you start a new job, then the resulting printed matter (whether you are using a professional large-scale printing machine or regular inkjet Printers, your photos and works will reduce the chance of color cast.
