    How to calibrate any Apple Displays, iMac, Macbook using X-Rite i1Profiler!
    In this video Art will show you how to calibrate any Apple Laptop, all iMac, any Apple Displays Hooked up to Mac with a Mac keyboard using X-Rite i1Profiler with X-Rite i1Display Pro Plus. Because many of these devices are portable in nature they get used in in multiple lighting situations and being able to set to the correct luminance level every time you want to do any serious image or video editing is crucial. This video will show you how to precisely set the brightness value (the number for your computer) to the correct candela every time on both laptop with Touch Bar and laptop with standard function keys, which would work with any iMac or Apple Display too.
    UPDATE: the guide shown in this video will work for Calibrite Devices and ColorChecker Profiler (ccProfile) as well. There may be some GUI and branding changes, however, the software fundamental is still the same.
    If you are unfamiliar X-Rite Transitioned this consumer product portfolio to a newly formed company called Calibrite, which is short for Calibration Done Right, on July 1st, 2021.

    Hi Art, great videos, thank you for going in depth. I have a question about swapping between 2 profiles with i1 Profiler. For context, I used to use the software a lot about 10 years ago, but since then I switched to Eizo CG monitors and have been using ColorNavigator with an i1 Display Pro. I am thinking about buying a Macbook Pro when the new 14" model is released later this year. I understand the process to create a photo editing profile at ~100cd/m. I recall that i1 Profiler then automatically loads the chosen profile at startup. However, I plan to use the laptop equally for content consumption. Would it make sense to create a second profile based on native/maximum luminance (might end up being 600-800 nits) or would the 100cd/m profile probably be fine once I increase the brightness all the way? If I did create two profiles, is it easy to swap in between them without having to restart the computer? I find with ColorNavigator and my Eizo that when I switch profiles and switch back things don't look right until I restart. Thanks if you have any advice!

    • @ArtIsRight
      @ArtIsRight  3 роки тому +1

      Ketan, I would just use the 100 nits for photo for everything else that you do. Other brightness range are not for color critical work and the variations are really minor and almost visually un-noticeable. However, if you choose to use 2 profile that is fine too. Just go into display preferences, color tab and choose the other profile and you are done.

    Thank you for the great video. I do not recall you touching on the "Automatic Graphics Switching" option in the Energy Saver panel of System Preferences in this video or your other video you mention at the beginning of this video. Is this something we should leave checked or unchecked before calibrating our MacBook display? Because if graphics are switching, would that negatively affect anything before or after calibration? What are your thoughts on what I should do? Thank you for your time and help! :)
    For some info, I am a photographer, print on a canon IPF 1000, and use a 2018 15" MacBook pro. The reason I want to calibrate my MacBook pro display is that I currently do not have access to my BenQ SW271 display. However, I do have my SpyderX Elite with me so I can calibrate my MacBook's display with that.

    • @ArtIsRight
      @ArtIsRight  3 роки тому

      Great point, I have tested the graphic switching on the MBP and there are a few things that happens on the Mac. 1st Apple does a really great job normalizing the result between the two GPU in the system. 2rd when you start the calibration program on the Mac it is set so that the GPU would automatically switch to discrete, so anytime you are running the calibration you are using the more powerful GPU. And yes the icc from the more powerful GPU will work with the integrated GPU just fine, no visual difference.

    • @ArtIsRight
      @ArtIsRight  Рік тому

      I should make a video on this, you can use reference profile such as sRGB or Adobe RGB or you can use the display icc as well, if you want to do this, I would recommend choosing the display icc at the bottom of the list instead of the option "monitor - profile name" at the top because there are some hardline ICC policies that PS enforce when choosing that option.

He said he thinks his imac is calibrated at 2.6 gamma because he is editing a lot of video and he did the calibration that way (DCI P3 but 2.6 gamma).So the question is ..if he edit a photo in photoshop for the web ,without changing the display settings..do you think in camera raw he should choose srbg or adobe rgb? and for mac users do you think they can still get good results in photoshop for web photos?:)

    • @ArtIsRight
      @ArtIsRight  4 роки тому +1

      I would have him test out the result from PS and LR in this situation. I don't think that going from 2.2 to 2.6 is too big of deal, the screen will look a bit more contrasty with blacks being darker but for web and internet use it should be less of an issue. For print, this may not be the case. The gamma can be changed via profile with software calibration. As far as I know Mac uses 2.2 gamma which is the industry standard but I have heard video editors using gamma other 2.2 for video work. For me I edit all my work at the default gamma of 2.2 :)

    I have an iMac and was going to purchase a X-Rite Display Pro Plus to calibrate the iMac’s screen (while also dimming/blacking out my room.)
    Once that’s calibrated and the color profile is loaded onto my computer via system preferences…Would I then open up Lightroom and under soft proofing/print open up the FujiFilm Deep Matte profile (thats what I’d like to print with).
    I guess what Im asking is, would I be using two profiles? One to get a baseline correct color system wide. And then the printing profile to dial it in specifically for this printer service?

    • @ArtIsRight
      @ArtIsRight  4 роки тому

      You have the correct idea. What is going to happen is that LR will be using the display profile to render the photos and the colors for you. When you apply soft proofing in LR it is going to load and simulate what that picture would look like with the Fuji deep Matts profile. This is done by color conversion via your display profile to the Fuji did my profile. If you have any follow up please let me know :)

    Thank you Art. I am new to monitor calibration and will be using the i1display pro on my apple laptop soon.
    Can you please speak to the 'ambient light smart control' setting and the impact of ambient light in general?
    Once i calibrate the screen is that calibration only valid for when using the laptop in the same ambient light as it was when it was calibrated? What is the impact of variable ambient light on screen calibration and colour accuracy? etc. Thank you so much for your videos!

    • @ArtIsRight
      @ArtIsRight  2 роки тому +1

      You're welcome. Recommendation for ambient light smart control is to turn it off and leave it off. It is a common misconception and a feature that is drummed up by engineer who does not color edit in the real world. Your screen brightness should always remain the same when you are doing color critical work, regardless of the environment that you are in. This is the reason why I showed the brightness changing method by counting the notches. If your environment is too bright and the screen looks dark, then you have to find a new environment to do color critical edit in or control the lighting in that environment and not the other way around where the screen get adjusted. Don't get me wrong for casual work, UA-cam, web browsing, etc, you can change the screen brightness but for color critical work it should be brought down to match the value that you have set during calibration.

    • @ArtIsRight

      Got cha, so yes the software is the same, all of the options that I showed in this video is still valid for ccProfilier. i1Profilier has printing features so there may be some additional elements but otherwise, they are identical. As far as Mac goes, if you have the plain M1 in the 13" chassis then yes the calibration works just fine. If you have the 14 & 16" MBP then you need to use the videos in this playlist ua-cam.com/play/PLjlr8rlxl_q5jBT6sp5aUrTfctBJ4U43J.html
      As far as Native or Rosetta, the answer does not change the function of the program, since these are lighter program anyway. However, as of this answer, it is still Rosetta.

      Method is the same and yes turn it up all the way. at 7:00 mark when I show the adjustment I already had it turned up all the way, which is why it probably was not mention. And then just bring it down from full brightness to get the correct, repeatable calibration.

    What? 5 bars down from the max? I've always edited at like 4 bars (from min) and that was on my iMac 2011 which for sure has less nits because it's old. Now on my M1 Air I also like to use at it around 4-5 bars. I also use my TV and phone on very low brightness settings. I never understood how people were able to edit at full brightness, that feels like a supernova to me.
    Do you happen to have an estimate at how many bars to use the M1 Air?

The room I edit in is near a very large picture window. The window is behind my screen but the light is always changing in the room, clouds, night, etc... In your video you make the choices to manually change the brightness. The specific reason I bought the i1 was for the automatic ambient light adjustment feature. I have a mental disability that prevents me from reading and comprehending new information. Is there a video I can watch several times to set up my new i1to take advantage of this feature.

      @ArtIsRight  3 роки тому +1

      Hi Lori, thank you for the message. So there's a very specific reason why I don't use the ambient light feature in X-Rite or any product and that is because your display brightness should also be a set - fixed value relative to print, it should never change regardless of the environment. What I recommend doing instead is to control the lighting in the environment so that it does not get to bright when you are doing color critical work. Ambient light features can have adverse effect on the print out where the display looks normal to your visual perception relative the environmental brightness but when compared to print it is much brighter than a printed image. You can certainly give that feature a try but I highly advise against it. Every now and then there are features and use cases that engineers come up with, but it does not necessary make sense for practical use, this is one of them.

I understand the paper has to have the correct profiles and am familiar with those attributes. Thank you again for helping me.

    • @ArtIsRight
      @ArtIsRight  3 роки тому +1

      If you want simple stick with D65 setting, if your print is too dark then calibrate the screen for a dimmer brightness, range of 80-120 will work well. D50 is more for press and pro printing house, for what you do D65 is easier to match. What you want to do as well is get a lamp with LED light bulb that is calibrated to D65 or a LED light bank that can be adjusted to D65 for viewing the prints. Otherwise you are set, again feel free to follow up anytime.

    Hi Art, I'm curious what you recommend for the lighting environment one would be editing in using their calibrated display? For reference, I am using the 2015 iMac 27" 5k display in an office with 2 windows, which obviously are changing with the day's current lighting situation or weather condition. The windows have blinds on them that are shut at all times, but by no means are they room darkening, as there is still an adequate amount of ambient lighting coming through them. Only one of them faces the screen side of my computer, and it reflects off the left corner while I edit. Should I put blankets/room darkening curtains over them to maintain a controlled lighting situation? I would love to know your advice on this subject.
    Also, I have followed your calibration advice with the i1Display Profiler and I do not allow the computer or software to do any automatic lighting adjustments according to room environment.

    • @ArtIsRight
      @ArtIsRight  3 роки тому

      It is good that you don't have your display change with the ambient. This said you don't need to be in a total dark room or even dim lit room. Your setup seems fine. What I would do is choose a curtain color that is neutral this way the light coming in won't bias or change the ambient too much. Also if you want to darken out one of the windows you can especially if it bother or interrupt your work but it is not necessary.

    On a MacBook Pro internal display, when working with rec.709 video, does your display have to be limited to rec.709? or are you only able to match the standard brightness and white point between your display and the rec.709 standard, and therefore the colours will be greater than rec.709? or is it actually possible to make the MacBook display only the colours specified by rec.709, dci-p3 etc standards?

    • @ArtIsRight
      @ArtIsRight  3 роки тому

      Short answer is no and it is because of Color Management Module CMM watch this to find out more ua-cam.com/video/Yvu-sgddna0/v-deo.html
      Furthermore you are heavily relying on CMM in software calibrated display such as the one build into to any laptops and all in one PC. These displays similar to most displays that are out there, once they have been calibrated from the factory at DCI-P3 or Display P3 they are stuck there you can't change the RGB primary on the display output. You may have notice that non of the software calibration program offer a selection of RGB primary before calibration. This is the reason why. Most computer programs are color aware which means that if your project is tagged with Rec 709 then it would show it to you in Rec 709 rather than the display color space.

      Also in regards to programs like Davinci, surely the windows/Mac CMM is overridden by software such as that? or is that where decklinks for example come into play, as the only way to force an output in a specific color space is to use an external output not controlled by the OS?

      First question, yes you have the correct premise.

If you are using Adobe products then yes but for Davinci no the software color management would not override the OS.

      -This means that your print once it comes out from the printer has a fix, finite brightness. It does not change. The only variable that change is the lighting on the print, but with that the print brightness does not change just only how much light and what color of light is reflected on it. So with this in mind, if you print, you should never have your display adjust to ambient, it is like shooting to a moving target, this makes it difficult to color correct, because what you see is constantly changing based on ambient.

    • @ArtIsRight
      @ArtIsRight  3 роки тому

      It is supposed to be darker if you have not calibrated before. In this situation you should not change the display but rather the image that you are editing. You can bring up the brightness by 20 nits but if you have an iMac 1 notch up does not necessary correspond to 20 nits in fact it might not even be linear, brightness is usually on a curve. So if you like calibrate it to 120 nits and if your images looks dark then you should increase the exposure in LR. If you are going to print I would not exceed 120 nits. Regarding external lab if you have them adjust the prints then it does not matter, if you don't, then you should have you display brightness precise. ua-cam.com/video/UmFxZKqtHts/v-deo.html

      @@ArtIsRight Yesterday when I asked about it in a forum someone replied but I don't known does it correct or not. Here are his replied.
      My MacBook Pro 2016 ( Retina, P3 display ), uncalibrated, has a color temperature of 7023K ( how do I know this ? I just switched it to an uncalibrated state and measured it ), which is 523K above the calibration target. It certainly is far from calibrated to a 6500K whitepoint out of the box.
      Calibrating this display, by scientific definition, changes the color. That change is, by scientific definition, warmer and yellower, relative to the uncalibrated display.
      These changes are what they are; and they are relative to one another.
      If you were starting off with a display whose native color temperature was 6000K, and that's what you were used to seeing as the "normal" color of display, and they you calibrated it to 6500K, then you would say the calibrated display was becoming colder / bluer.
      If you calibrate a 6500K. native display to 6500K, there will be a barely imperceptible, if any, shift in the calibrated whitepoint. ( That would be true of certain desktop displays that are factory calibrated close to 6500K, but not to a MacBook Pro 2016 or 2017, for instance ). Depending on how well calibrated the starting point of that type of display is, you might see "no" change in the look of the display, before and after calibration.
      As you calibrate displays to lower color temperatures ( Kelvin is "color temperature" ), by definition, the look of the display becomes progressively warmer. If you were to calibrate to higher color temperatures, the look would become progressively colder. A display calibrated to 5500K looks even warmer than 6500K. Calibrate to K in the 3000's and it's strongly yellow.
      Because : science.
      If a display doesn't become warmer after calibration, and there's no change in the color temperature of the calibrated whitepoint, then it was already at or very near 6500K, if that was the calibration target used.
      A 7000K+ display calibrated down to 6500K is by definition going to be warmer relative to where it started.

    • @ArtIsRight
      @ArtIsRight  3 роки тому

      That answer is correct. And it is inline with what I told you about most, if not all apple computer displays and it is that the ship from the factory with much more blue. So when you calibrate it would be warmer. Color temperature aside, another thing that also effect this blue as well is gamut, DCI-P3 is bias toward compared to Display P3. So what you are seeing is normal but more precise and correct compared to uncalibrated. And like he said everything is relative, this is something that I tell newly calibrated folk all the time, what you are used to is not necessary a good reference nor is it the correct color.

      Yes and no. So what you are getting is an accurate P3 gamut, which is good. If you want to work in Adobe RGB gamut then SW displays are an excellent choice. This said, I would try out the laptop display first and see how that looks vs print before you go you and buy a SW. Don't get me wrong, I love for every pro to have one but it is better to expand into tool out of a known and tested need, rather than jumping into things first without giving it a test. :) hope this helps.

      Yes and no and not quite as essential as you might think. If the believe is that most of your target audience will have iPhone / iPad only then sure, but the reality is not this clear cut. So this is done to accommodate one brand, what about others. Also Apple does a great job calibrating their displays, but from iPhone to iPhone from even the same gen there are variations, not to mention when you cross gen you are looking at OLED vs LCD with traditional backlight. iPad wise is traditional LCD vs miniLED. I see where your thoughts are on this, however, I want to share the broader stroke with you.

      Keyword here is social media, which uses their own rendering engine, compression, color space, etc. It will never look close or exact. This is a can of worm that you should not open.

      I think we need to go back from the begging and look at your color workflow. What computer are you using, brand, laptop, desktop, display models, programs that you edit with, are you calibrating your displays? These would be a good place to start. On your phone do you have True Tone turned on if you have an apple phone our if you have Samsung is vivid mode on, there are just 2 samples of variables that can change the way how an image look and every one, will have these toggled on or off along with other settings that you can't control and more so, have no control over who views your images and how they set their phone screen. Then we have the conversation of Apple vs Android, Apple calibrate their screen fairly well, Android, it is just all over the map. This is the can of worm that I am talking about, there's no containing it. Sure you may say, I would take my edit on a computer and do final tweaks on the phone, yes you can do that but it would really only look good on your phone, and mostly likely not others.
      "So the bottom line is now after knowing all the information you provided is how can I know it’s not a problem of my Mac screen than needs to be calibrated ? Can I test it somehow or I should buy xrite and follow your calibrating video ?"
      You can buy a calibrator and I encourage you to do that but the reality is that if you have an Apple display, will the color change, yes, but not much, just slightly. Is there a test, yes and no, but it would depends on what you want to test. If you can calibrate your display and validate it so that the ∆e is under 2 then you know what you are looking at is good and then, this is the hard part, being able to let go of the fact that it still won't help much with a match to mobile devices.

      That percentage number is relative to each display, meaning that it is different for every display. Do you design for web only or for print as well.

Once you calibrate the display it will show closer to the print but it won't match 100%, it never will.

    What brightness level would you recommend for a 5k 27" iMac?

    • @ArtIsRight
      @ArtIsRight  3 роки тому

      if you print 80 cd/m^2 if not then 100 will work too.

      ArtIsRight Thanks for the reply. I’m currently using 7 tick marks of brightness, and it seems to be okay. Wouldn’t 100% be too bright? Just looking for your advice on the perfect screen brightness. I send my photos off to a professional printer.

      What I meant was 100 cd/m^2 not 100% so the range of 80 - 100 will work just fine :)

      ArtIsRight I appreciate the reply back. So, how many tick marks is that? I don’t have the screen calibration tool, I’m setting it manually from the screen brightness buttons.

      That would depend on your laptop, it is hard to say each are slight different. For most apple laptop it is about 5-7.
