I just recently purchased a Colorvision ColorPlus. I thought I was pretty
close with my monitor calibration using Adobe Gamma but boy, was I wrong. I
was a bit too much toward the blue end. After calibration with the spyder I
couldn't tell the difference between a print on Ilford Galerie Classic
Pearl made on a Canon i960 using the Ilford profile and the image on my
Opiquest V95 CRT monitor.
During the Colorvision calibration process I found I had to raise the
brightness level on the monitor to almost 100%. That seems a bit extreme
and I can probably live with about 90-94%, a setting I got using a program
called QuickGamma. The Colorvision tech said I should be between 65 and
70. I've never been able to use a setting that low even when the monitor
was purchased about 4 years ago. Is a setting of between 90-94% safe or a
"normal" setting for a CRT or is this an indication of a aging monitor?
