Hi There, I'm getting a bit confused and I'm hoping someone can help me.
I have a Dell 2713H monitor, an X-Rite i1 and the Dell UltraSharp calibration solution tool installed on the computer. The monitor has several modes and I don't know which one(s) I should be using for editing (Lightroom & Photoshop). The modes are:
Using the i1 I'm able to calibrate the two Cal modes to anyone of a number of colour spaces. There are two things that I edit in Photoshop and Lightroom,
RAW files off my camera and TIFF files from negative scanning. The TIFF files I export with an AdobeRGD16bit profile (due to the scanner\0
I understand that Lightroom and Photoshop work using the ProfotoRGB colour space which has the biggest gamut and that the monitors Native colour space is also large. Therefore should I be using the Native setting on my monitor for editing and then checking via soft proofing in SRGB before exporting from print/internet?
For the TIFFs should I use the calibrated ARGB mode or the Native mode?
What's confusing me is editing in one space, exporting in another and the monitor being in something else.
