![]() ![]() (a) these screen are more expensive (u end paying more than a cheaper screen with a ee), ![]() Pro: u would not need a LUT box for that screen, only for the client TV. Not suitable for your setup.Īnother approach: buy a grading screen that has built-in LUT storage (Eizo CG models, some NEC). This would contaminate the signal, hence u can then only use one screen (calibrated), but not the client monitor and/or external scopes simultaneously. Re durability: been running multiple boxes for the last 8 years, zero issues.Īnother approach: use Resolve's built-in viewer LUT to cal one screen. Note: eeColor is EOL, supply lasts until stock runs out. Rec 709 G2.2 100 nits, Rec G2.4 100 nits, Rec 709 G2.2 120 nits, Rec G2.4 120 nits, Rec 709 G2.2 max nits the screen can do, etc (depending on what the client wants and/or what the desired standard is - this is very useful) Another reason why this is very useful is for storing multiple calibration targets, e.g.: Technically speaking u could store a cLUT (calibration LUT) for the ref screen and the client screen and then switch between them, so u could get away with one LUT box, but then u can't run them simultaneously. Even better entry level screens like the HP Dreamcolor, Eizos, NECs do have uniformity issues.Īlso, the ee box has 6 LUT slots. On lower end (-> cheaper) screens this will be a factor, but there is no way around it. Note: the LUT box can't fix uniformity issues. And, displa圜al/Argyll supports it, hence u can export that LUT format. eeColor uses 65^3 LUTs - highest LUT resolution available on the market, and also the cheapest LUT box there is. With the eeColor you can get either screen to be very, very accurate - and therefore also match each other as good as possible - minus display technology differences (e.g. This will ultimately be cheaper for you than buying more expensive screens and a much, much better calibration. HD only and HDMI, do not have the budget yet for a SDI screen.īest approach: get 2x eeColor LUT boxes - one for the grading screen and one for the client TV. Mike Nagel wrote:What is your connection to both screens (HDMI|SDI|etc) and what is the resolution of each screen ? Are u doing HD or UHD ? The differences, were they to be listed here, would as in the foregoing, result in TL:DR. In many ways, the "TV" is a fish you are painting red and imagining to be a beef tenderloin. If it is just to make the picture "bigger", than there is another whole host of factors that will change a viewer's perception of the values in the image. It's a natural instinct to want to show clients what their image might "look like at home." This is a fool's errand for too many reasons to list. what you call a "TV" has been designed to please consumers and will fall all over itself kissing doing degrading actions like dynamic contrast, sharpening, noise reduction, motion-smoothing (invented by Satan), and a ton of other things that you must shut off. Match your client display to the grade monitor. Make a distinction between calibration and matching.Ĭalibrate your grading monitor, whatever it is. If you can get the monitors right on their own, that is the best result. That is, a round peg will fit through a round hole better than making it square so that it will fit through a non-round hole that should be right in the first place.ĭispla圜AL can make LUTs that is a valid approach, but what they would like everyone to do is to try to get your hardware as close as possible before resorting to compensating tables. It is a purer through-flow to get the monitors right, rather than pre-distorting your image in the hope it will all come out right at the end. Try not to use LUTs - reproduction accuracy depends on a fairly coarse re-plotting map that doesn't usually deal with unexpected values that probably will occur as part of the grading/correction process. I do have a X-Rite i1 Display Pro and plan on using displa圜al. I'm looking into color calibration but a little bit overwhelmed, it seems to be that calibration using a 3D LUT achieves better results.
