John Hallett Photography Monitor Calibration

Monitor Calibration

In order to see all the tonal differences within the photographs on the John Hallett Photography website, it is important that your monitor is correctly calibrated. Below is a simple, but effective, method using a greyscale.

1) Use the same lighting in the room that is usual when you use your computer.

2) Turn the contrast up on your monitor to 100%

3) Study the greyscale picture below:

4) Adjust the brightness on your monitor until you can see all 26 squares

In a similar test, you should be able to see all of the coloured squares below:

If you change the lighting in the room then you will need to re-calibrate your monitor.
