I dont understand what anyone is saying perhaps someone would be kind enough to explain what all the fuss is w/r to 'native gamma' in monitors surely a/a monitor's electronics are linear in its response to measured levels of electricity sent to it or is not b/a monitor has a limited capacity to match a given range of levels of electrical signal to brightness values c/ the grafic card is capable of delivering precise levels of electic output as defined by the lut (or not) d/ the phosphors are linear in their response or not e/ the phosphors emit the desired spectra (eg that the red does not emit blue light) ...and that is it if all this is true, then the only place where one can say that there be a 'native gamma' is in the monitor's response to a specific table of voltages if the monitor is calibrated (by whatever method) and the grafic card is capable of delivering reasonably stable and precise control over voltage.....of what consequence is the 'native' gama? surely nothing philip =============================================================== GO TO http://www.prodig.org for ~ GUIDELINES ~ un/SUBSCRIBING ~ ITEMS for SALE
