    Not a common pet.

    Thanks for the comments. This is Winston our Moorish Idol. Stunning fish and seems to enjoy posing. This one is taken with a different lens. 28-70, first pic taken with a 50ml prime. The 28-70 focusses a lot quicker than the prime but I only have cheap kit lenses at the moment.

    Monitor Calibration.

    Just to update this thread. Spyder X arrived yesterday from Amazon. Found it extremely easy to use and straightforward. Both monitors now calibrated and certainly look different. Will let you know how I get on going from one to the other.

    Monitor Calibration.

    Ok I see, I did think it was odd that the software wouldn't work with windows 10. I could take the one from home to work and match them. Problem is I still wouldn't know the colour was good for everyone else, ie correct.:thinking: Thanks for the reply.

    Monitor Calibration.

    Ok thanks very much for the replies. I'm using Windows 10 on both computers so it seems the Spyder software won't work? I find this a little odd! So just to confirm, I would need to buy either the pro or elite which seems a little cheaper on Amazon and run it with Displaycal which is a free...

    Any more suggestions or advice on this? Or are they not that popular, in which case what's the alternative?

    Monitor Calibration.

    Hi, I'm having a problem editing photo's in Lightroom. I use two different monitors, one at work that is a laptop with a separate 4k. The other at home which is just a built in screen on a 17 inch MSI. The issue is that even though I've run the onboard Windows calibration, the difference in...
