[Leica] OT Mac Display calibration

[Scott Gregory]

Bill I use an iMac and have calibrated it for several years with an eye one and it works well. I would like to jump up to Eizo however on my next round of updates.

>> Color calibration for the Mac is built into the OS. You start by opening the System Preferences icon (the one with the gear) and then open the Display icon. When that opens, choose Color. At that point several LCD calibrations show up. Start by selecting the one labelled Calibrate and follow the instructions. You can change display temperature, brightness, etc. and save the results as a new LCD calibration. By using the System Preferences you can flip back and forth between the various calibrations.
