Photographic Tips & Techniques

Importance of calibrating your monitor

Monitor calibration is extremely important for digital photographers.  Unless your monitor is calibrated the colors on your camera, computer, and prints will not match.  Color corrections and adjustments using software will not be accurate or easy without calibration.

A variety of calibration devices are available, some for less than $100.  I use a ColorVision Spyder2 and the difference is immediately apparent when I look at images corrected before and after.  If you're serious about digital photography you need a calibrator.
