How Lenovo ThinkPad W510 Display calibrated correctly

[The$Achilles]

My 15.6IN LED FullHD 1920x1080 prepares me - just as it did other members of this forum - eye pain: the colors are very strong. The display at maximum brightness aggressively harsh. At my workplace, the brightness levels range from 10-12 to 15 in order to generate sufficient brightness. However, the white will be shown very reddish When I look up after a while working on the W510 in my room, everything has a greenish tinge. This is my first noticed in any other monitors so strong. Who had the same problems with his display and has included it with W510-or third-party managed funds have added a reasonable calibration? How?

For example, for under 6000rs - 3 of Datacolor Spyder or with more extensive software for each version But I must also say this, that colors the W510 does not lie so much in addition as I have often seen. The extended color space is a bit fancier than prior representations and getting used to for one or the other. So I know this much.

The displays in the W510 are probably from the same series and should have similar output values. We come not to the optimum, such a profile would be enough for me to start with, however. The idea of the Rent a colorimeter in the photo shop I will pursue. I do not want to invest the money in a colorimeter to determine afterwards that nothing has changed. You say: "For me it is working." - Would you recommend me buying a colorimeter for the W510? Did you have the same feeling that red is a bit exaggerated when delivered? I've never worked with a colorimeter and am therefore not sure what you can achieve really.

Whatever you want to start with the display and the viewing is subjective. I find it so that it has been for a gain to calibrate each monitor these and likewise with the W510. The red color was slightly less than in themselves and knows as usual to calibrate the white-containing. As described lend to you but just such a device and see yourself I did not have the perception that the white is very reddish been. Especially with colors, it is still very much in the eye of the beholder.

The Spyder has its problems but certainly with wide gamut displays. The extended color space is the reason for the reddish tinge. Are just simply more colors there. Can the display is not randomly put them in a different color space? I use my Dell 2709 in the Adobe RGB color space, as has the slightest deviation. The one with the colors, color profiles, sRGB and Wide Gamut is already complicated. I am working since to more or less so and still not looking right through. Wide range of sounds at first well received, but who has been working in desktop publishing for the use and able to do? Have also NEM good friend recommended LG Wide Gamut TN monitor. Had I made NEM Prad test? And regarding this someone has scolded me because of the reddish tinge. After the calibration was everything ok.

Regarding this I think not! When I look at pictures on the screen I am overwhelmed by the positive presentation of the colors. However, if I word processing and other programs can run on a white background and then change the view between the display and a white paper next to the W510, then the white paper looks green and when I return look at the display, the white of the display looks red. The same applies if I want a second monitor or my old laptop next to the W510. Since I now could find in my city with nearly 200,000 inhabitants in the large electronics and photographic markets Colorimeter no, I will order for me one via the Internet. I will report what has brought me to calibrate. For now, I have reduced the color management of the graphics card, the brightness and contrast of red.
