Colormunki & Dell U2711 on mac

[LongLensPhotography]

I tried to recalibrate today and I am getting very strange results. D65 (as before) setting gave me a blueish low contrast output with some mid-grey tones appearing too warm! I tried like 6 times and the end results were fairly close. With "native" it was a lot brighter and too yellow.

I re-did my other monitor and MBP and both gave very reasonable if slightly different results. I can appreciate colour may shift over a few months, so I'm happy to accept the calibrator seems to be working fine.

The old profile of 2711 is reasonable if slightly too warm so I could live with it for a little while and it is not a secret I am looking around for a new monitor - and inevitably a 4K-capable PC/mac. Of course this is not an ideal situation so any ideas what may be going wrong (the monitor itself?) would be welcome.

What software are you using to calibrate?

Try setting th monitor profile to something standard , say sRGB. Now using this start point re calibrate to the settings you want. See f this makes any difference. Also are you letting the Colormunki set the colour temp, rather than using the monitors on screen controls. ( That's what I would do. ) Are the monitor controls set to effectively "Factory Default"?

Yes, pretty much all default. It must be f***ed in more ways than just darkening on the right side. I'll probably have new one on the way tonight
