A place to politely discuss the tools, technique and culture of photography.

This is not a good place to simply share cool photos/videos or promote your own work and projects, but rather a place to discuss photography as an art and post things that would be of interest to other photographers.

how many screens/monitors you checked your photos on before distributing? also, the Pantone verification is it only valid for the factory calibration or is still valid if one calibrates the monitor? (alien.top)

I recently started editing on an LG OLED PRO screen but now I am having doubts if OLED is a good screen to edit given that it is is still relavetily scarce. Lately I check in two screens (the other a BenQ SW calibrated monitor) but I was curious if I am overthinking the problem.

I spot check on my phone. I also use a calibrated monitor for editing.

Another thing that helps is to have some known images that have great exposure and color. Then you can bring those images up, to help calibrate your brain. This can be especially helpful when editing when sun is getting into your editing room, or it's dark save your monitor.

very good advice.

I tend for the reason you hint, not to deliver images if I can only edit with sun light around me (e.g. outside my office). I try to wait until midnight or so, so I can have almost dark room.
