Hey...
Back in January, I picked up a "refurbished" NEC PA271 from B&H. I have a couple of questions.
What profiling settings are you using? I do primarily wedding type work so it's a lot of web viewing and some printing. I see different settings out there for calibration depending on web or print delivery, so what do you set at?
Secondly, the colors on my NEC look better than on my iMac. A couple of times, I feel this has led to underprocessing an image. Like it looked great on my NEC, so I uploaded. Then the uploads looked undersaturated on my iMac and the client said the same thing. Also, a few times, I've uploaded images that are way too hot. Again, looked great on my NEC, then in my web gallery I was like :shocked:
Finally, sometimes (about 1 out of every 5 times) I wake up my NEC and it's fires up, then has a green staticy snow and I need to turn it off and back on. Is this normal? What causes this?
I seems to defeat the purpose double check my editing on my iMac, but it's what I've resorted to. I calibrate monthly under "photo editing" so I'm at a loss here.
Thanks!
