Apple Studio Display Calibrite / X-Rite Full Calibration Guide. How to calibrate your Apple Studio Display. This guide will walk you through the process of calibration your Apple Studio Display using Calibrite ColorChecker Profiler which is the same as and X-Rite i1Profiler. Starting out the process with creating a custom preset for your workflow, do a fine tune calibration (feature only available in ccProfiler / i1Profiler software, and the the calibration process with some setting that are tweaked from normal and conventional software calibrated display calibration. Something to note is that I recommend using GB-LED after a lot of testing. The default that ccProfiler selected is WLED. The results are close, so you can experiment to see what works best for your needs and workflow. Overall, the variation is very minor and using either option, I was able to get a color gamut that closely approximate 98-99% P3 color space, with the display confirming more to DCI-P3 than Display P3. But either way calibration works with the current set of software. This guide will also show you where you change, access and control your display ICC profile settings on these new generations of Apple Displays as well.

A few points of clarification. The white point x = 0.3127 and y = 0.329 is the standard specification white point for sRGB, Adobe RGB and Display P3. x=0.3140, y=0.3510 for DCI-P3 (theatre) These are all standard color reference specification, not a number that I came up with. Measured white point will vary from one display to another. Luminance for printing is 80-120 nits, choose a number in this range that is best suite for your environment. And if you want to see how big the calibrated gamut is compared to P3 Standard ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-8qHYsJDSKWM.html

@renotahoegraphics 2 года назад

For DCI-P3 what maximum Luminance: SDR value is ideal? It defaults to 48 or the 80 you input or something else? Also what is ideal between P3-D65 or P3-DCI?

@pieroroccaysj 2 года назад

Any insight into why the white point and luminance can't be controlled via the ICC profile and why one now needs to use the fine tuning calibration? For standard targets, this makes no sense to me. For custom targets, sure but it should be managed by the calibration software and ICC profile not through a proprietary method. Very frustrating.

@andrescastillo4971 11 месяцев назад

Finally, i didnt understood. In the video you put 0.329 in the x value and here you are saying that should be 0.3127. Which one is right? I would really appreciate if you could clarify that. Thank you ! I really love the way you explain everything and have been very useful to me and many others

This video is hugely helpful. I have a M1 MBP and want to add either the Apple Studio Display or the BenQ SW271c. There is no cost difference between the two, as I will use either with a VESA mount. The reason for the second monitor is for my photography hobby. I have a high resolution camera (Sony A7R4) and currently use an NEC PA272W. I will keep that display and add to that either the Apple Studio or BenQ. The problem is I have never seen the BenQ, only watched about 10 videos, including yours. I want the new monitor to be at least 4K and I have to say the fact that the Apple is 5K intrigues me. I would like a display that not only is good for viewing still photos, but also soft-proofing before printing. My question for you is which monitor you would choose if excellence in photography is the most important quality? Thank you.

Hey! Im sure I saw previously in one of your videos (which are very useful!) to use pfs phosphor but now you are advising the gb led. I am on a MacBook Pro, and calibrate for photo editing purposes/printing of digital images to make sure they match as close as possible. I have everything set to SRBG. Which is best to use please? The pfs phosphor as ive been using or the gb led? I have noticed that although my screen matches pretty well with my prints, my screen does show everything a lot duller/flatter than when I view on my phone (understandably because phones are strongly backlit etc) or in print. Thank you!

@ArtIsRight 24 дня назад

GBLED is for this 5K display. MBP pre 2020 are all PFS Phospor. Current line up is different. I don't know what year MBP you have and what size, all of these changes the equation of how one would calibrate said display. About print, you are looking at a glossy display that will always show more contrast and saturation regardless of calibration. You'll get close but never a match. There's a lot of nuacnes and depth to printing and print maching.

@SteveSSBB 2 года назад

Thank you, Art. I re-calibrated using your method and my display looks noticeably better than following my old iMac method. I wouldn't have thought to use GB LED without your advice. I used the SpyderX Pro to measure my WP and calibrate without issue. I'm wondering what the advantage of fine-tuning the WP on the display vs doing it in the calibration is for someone with a 1 display/computer setup. Thanks again!

@ArtIsRight 2 года назад

Advantage is that your icc profile is not adjusting the white point, so one less variables to adjust compared to the other options. Plus with fine tune calibration you are tapping into the display factory calibration parameter rather than just relying on the icc. Also less icc profile correction, less digital pasteurization, banding and better overall profile.

@mobfc1 2 года назад

Can I ask which software you used to calibrate? I just got the studio display and already have a spyderx pro. I can't figure out the white point measurement

One question i can't seem to find an answer to is that can you calibrate, lets say a 10 bit pannel with 100% dcip and 100% adobe rgb, to match the colors of the display? As in can you calibrate any capable monitor to match Apple Display P3? Thanks

Thank you very much for this video. I have been using Calibrite on previous monitors, but there was much I did not understand. Now I have a Studio Display, so this was especially helpful. In fact though, I have two of them in two different locations, and move my MacBook back and for the between them. Do I need to set up an ICC Profile for each and then uses Color Synch Utility to select the right one each time I'm in the other location? Or is there something less cumbersome? Thanks!

@ArtIsRight 2 года назад

You can just do white point fine tune, stop there and call it the day. If you calibrate the computer is smart enough to know what display is plugged in, through serial number information and etc and should select the correct profile for you.

@heartsoul4386 2 года назад

Very good. I used Spyder 5 pro. It appears to have made a postivie improvement to my base p3-d65 L100 profile. I did try to match my old 2013 27" iMac which was intially quite green. The Spyder calibration improved it, but still far more green than my Studio Display. I can't seem to adjust the tint in any way at this point.

@ArtIsRight 2 года назад

it mat work but I would examine the result closely. Spyder Devices can't technically calibrate miniLED well because it uses a new spectral - matrix calibration data. Spyder matrix data is stored on the device and it is non upgradable, so you have to update to a new Spyder device to calibrate it properly. Calibrite on the other hand stores these data on the software, hence i1Display Pro aka colorchecker display pro has not needed an update on the hardware for more than a decade now and still works just fine because software has constantly been upgraded to accommodate for new displays. Also another big argument for buying a Calibrite device vs Spyder.

@CraigSherod 10 месяцев назад

Dumb question alert - I've always wondered what to do about the Brightness up/down buttons (F1, F2 on keyboard) in relation to calibrating the display. Should it be centered to start with? Should it be left where it's at after a calibration? Am I screwing up my calibration if the Brightness gets bumped accidentally? I'm a photographer delivering business portraits for display on the web and I especially don't want to hear from a client that all the images look very dark or light on the web (assuming their monitor is not at fault). Thanks for clearing up this insecurity I've had for years!

@ArtIsRight 10 месяцев назад

Since these displays are bright, I start with the left and then go up to the right. But with these you can just use the reference mode and you are set. Not need to change brightness blindly anymore.

I upgraded to the new M2 MacBook Pro which now has Ventura. I followed your tutorial to calibrate my Studio Display for Monterey last year, but It seems ccProfiler does not work on Ventura. I will need to upgrade to Calibrite Profiler for use with my X-Rite i1 Display Pro. Do you recommend the new version of the software? And do you use the same settings you mention in this video? Thanks you!

@ArtIsRight Год назад

It is not Ventura, it is M2 PRO / MAX there are some changes on the graphic output that is causing issue at the moment. Calibrite is aware of this and is working on a fix. And when it works everything that I shared here is the same

@iainm000 Год назад

Superb tutorial. Question: Can you think of any reason why Calibrite Profiler would give different results than CCProfiler, using the same procedure in both cases? Using fine-tuned preset Photography (P3-D65) L102, I get an achieved temperature of 6800-7000K in Calibrite Profiler, whereas CCProfiler sticks very close to 6500K. (Using ColorChecker Display Plus, native white point and luminance post-fine-tuning, 461 patches in both cases.)

@ArtIsRight Год назад

They are using the same prism, so the result should be similar. You might have seen this already ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-PLB93k9UYWc.html but I would follow this process and use GB-LED. If you have done this already let me know.

@iainm000 Год назад

@ArtIsRight, Thanks for your reply. I watched the video you mentioned, reset icc profile and fine-tuning to factory defaults. Using un-fine-tuned Photography (P3-D65) with a luminance of 102, nothing else altered (I use 102 because it's the value that gets me closest to 100 measured). Measured values pre-calibration in Calibrite Profiler were great and as expected (L=100.047, x=0.313, y=0.329). However, after calibration, under Calibrite Profiler Profile Information, the results are still off (white point=6785K !!!!, x=0.308, y=0.327). Tried removing fine-tuning -- no substantial change. Tried setting icc back to default in ColorSync Utility -- no substantial change... which was weird. Then I realized that Calibrite Profiler still thought I was using the profile it had just generated (still marked active even though I'd changed it in ColorSync Utility... there may be a bug there). Restarting Calibrite Profiler set everything back to normal, but my icc profile was inactive. Reactivating it manually in ColorSync Utility and remeasured in Calibrite Profiler (monitor quick check) and SURPRISE the measured values are good (L=101, WP=6489K, x=0.313, y=0.329). BUT the "registered target value" colour temperature associated with the profile is still listed as 6785K, which is not the D65 I set up initially. So it seems that there is something wrong somewhere. If you have any thoughts on this, I would be very grateful. (P.S. ccProfiler yields correct results.)

@ArtIsRight Год назад

dm will be quicker at this point. Did you set the white point to native for profiling. Nothing should change if it was set to native.

@paolo.arcangeli 2 года назад

Great video art! I just bought the Studio Display. I would also like to buy a calibrator, which one do you recommend for this monitor? iDisplay - iDisplay Pro - iDisplay Pro Plus - Datacolor Spider X?

ccDisplay Pro will do just fine, unless you do video then get the display plus. X-Rite transition their products to Calibrite, which is why I am referring to these devices as ColorChecker or CC for short, they are exactly the same products, just slightly different branding and logo.

hi, quick question - if i want to have two profiles, one for screen work and the other for print, am i correct in thinking that i need to change both the preset in apple settings as well as the icc profile in the calibrite software? For example, if i want to print i will set the icc profile through calibrite to a profile that has been calibrated to 5000k and L80 and also set the preset in apple display settings to a custom preset that i created with 5000k and L80? And then when i go back to screen work I will change both the apple display preset and icc profile to 6500k and L120?

@ArtIsRight 8 дней назад

I have 2 questions though : if I want 2 presets, say Photograph D65 and Photography D50 1) Should I do a fine tune calibration for both presets or will the data from the first preset be overwritten by the measurement for the second preset ? 2) Do I need to create a separate icc profile for the 2 presets ? Thank you !

1. This is where the issue come in, fine tune calibration is global and 1 setting so you can't really do 2 separate fine-then. 2. Yes create a separate icc. Your solutions is not idea, I would use D65 white point fine turn in preset 1 and follow this guide. For preset 2 just have the calibration program adjust the white point, so choose D50 and not native.

I had two iMacs that worked flawlessly with my Epson P800 with a 4-brightness level. Prints were consistent print job to print job. I have had nothing but trouble with my Studio display. When compared side by side my iMac prints were superior. My studio prints were flat, muddy and were off color. I used both glossy and matte paper, used paper from several well-known companies. I printed with ICC files, manage by printer and soft proofing. I used different display presets such as Apple(P3-600nits), design and print (P3-D50) and Photo (P3-D65). I developed my own display presets with different color gamuts, white points, gamma and luminance settings. I used X-rite i1 display to calibrate the monitor using both X-rite and the new calibrate profiler software. I used Apple's ColorSync utility to confirm settings. No setting produced acceptable prints. I have found Apple (P3-600nits) at - 6 brightness (not calibrated) is the best display settings for printing.

I would follow BenQ because of the hardware calibration. The point here is that colors will never match, both of the displays that you have are showing colors in different gamuts. One is P3 the other is Adobe RGB, back light and panel is also different as well. So lots of variables here.

@marting974 Год назад

@@ArtIsRight Yes, that was my assumption too. I was comparing P3 calibration on both screen tho. After a week of testing I'm not super happy with the studio display complementing my BenQ because of the color accuracy difference. I'm about to return the studio display and replace it by a benq sw271c. I expect getting a way better match between the 2 benQ, can you confirm ? also there is a difference in size between those two so I assume I won't be able to join the hood between the 2 right ? Thanks again for you time and videos, it truly one of the best ressource.

@ArtIsRight Год назад

2 BenQ would come closer, SW271C has the bezel around the display so it is a bit bigger than the SW270C. As far as P3 goes, Apple does not use the straight forward P3, as far as I know they tweak their P3 more toward the Blue spectrum, that is another reason why the match is difficult. Try putting your BenQ into M-Book mode and compare, should be close. Let me know the results.

Im awaiting the new studio mac with a couple of upgrades to use. I was going to get an eizo monitor but then read that wasnt recommended with the computer. What monitor would you recommend to go with the studio computer that would work with the xrite ( which i also need to purchase ) Thanks you. I am a pro photographer.

@ArtIsRight 2 года назад

Eizo will work with Mac Studio, not sure where you saw the not recommended remark but it is grossly misleading. These Mac Studio at the end of the day are just computer, and even though they run on Apple Chip. So if you are a pro photographer and want the best color possible and you want to working Adobe RGB color gamut or if you print, then I would recommend looking at hardware calibrated display from either the top of the line Eizo CG display line. Or if you are looking at Eizo CS line, which is one step down from CG line then I would add BenQ SW line to the mix as well. And even if you don't print, there's nothing wrong with having a display that can show 99%Adobe RGB. Hope this helps, feel free to follow up, if you do, please post a new comment this way I see it.

I’ve been using your white point method to calibrate my 14 M1 MacBook Pro. If I connect to the studio display and run this calibration, will it affect the MacBook Pros display? Should I even run the calibration on the Studio display or just stick to the white point method? Or does it know that the Studio display is hooked up and uses a separate calibration for each monitor.

Hi ArtIsRight, first of all, thank you very much for this tutorial! I'm facing though a bunch of issues that I would like to share with you, hopefully you have some advice how to get those solved. I'm aiming to calibrate my Studio Display with nano-texture screen to D50 and L120. Creating a profile from copying/editing an existing is of course fairly easy. Here are my issues: 1. Set a target value of 120L, the Studio Display Pro will always measure 109L. I tried a workaround by setting the target value of my Apple profile to 130L. in this case, Calibrate measures 119.409L which is pretty close. 2. The measured white point thought is: x: 0.346 y: 0.352 following your reference values for P3 ( x=0.3140, y=0.3510 ) I am getting warning signal right after entering the x value. I'm wondering, if the nano-texture surface doesn't work with the Profiler? Are the reference modes from Apple this bad, that I need to deal with white point fine tuning at all? I actually used 5800 and 120L in the past, but I have no idea how this could be done. If you can help to solve the first part of my challenges this would be awesome! Thanks a lot in advance and best regards, Christian

@ArtIsRight 2 года назад

1. Target set and calibration device measurement will vary, this is especially true with different color temperature. Variants can happen. This may also indicate a few things, Apple could not be calibrating the display at D50 range from the factory so the display is using the standard luminance curved at D65 to apply globally through out all display temp. Or they have calibrated it but not really well, I would say the former is more likely, which is why you are seeing the variation. In addition, the calibrator will usually show a ± 5 nits and that is considered normal. Our eyes can't really tell 5 nits apart. 2. The value that I have was for D65 only, if you are using D50 you need to look up the x y reference coordinate online for the color space that you want. Do note that many gamut will use the same x y white point but I would check and don't assume. Nano texture or not, it has nothing to do with this. 3. For 5800K and 120L you need need to find the x y coordinate for the white point in the gamut that you specified. There may be some website that can calculate or give this value to you, but you have to do a bit of digging. It may not be as easy and straight forward to find.

The fundamental issue with this is viewing and proofing for prints on a glossy display. Glossy will make everything flattering, i.e. more contrast and saturation and that is the downside.

Personally I would calibrate every display that I use. Factory calibration is not your computer calibration, so for the best result I would do the calibration. sRGB is a relatively small gamut so I would not worry much. as far as accuracy once calibrated they are about the same. what you should ask yourself is what you need more, a display that you can draw on or a pretty display from apple.

You are trying to match different display with different backlight type, LCD panel and most importantly color gamut, You can try to calibrate without fine-tune and see what results you get.

Correct me if I'm wrong but color gamut differences shouldn't be an issue if I aim the same white point target ? I updated both software and reset the screens settings to start from scratch. In my last tests, I noticed 2 things: - Calibrating the BenQ with palette master ultimate, using the same white point target as the Studio Display is going well. But when I use the white patch measuring tool from calibrite on the BenQ to compare with the target and the Mac Studio, the result are off. - I did a test where calibrated the BenQ with Calibrite instead of PMU, by passing it completely after a reset. And this makes the BenQ matching the Mac Studio. The thing is I know the BenQ should be the reference. Whatever I do the Mac Studio is way more red/magenta and the BenQ green. this difference in a dual screen setup is really affecting my perception for color work (photo + video).

When I tried to base the process on the "Photography (P3-D65)" preset, the luminance range topped out at 96. I verified the calibration using your instructions, and achieved a luminance of 119.

@ArtIsRight 2 года назад

Ah, that is the issue. For these display, that calibration process can be done but should not be done. That is why apple made these reference modes. I recommend following the guide as is, this is the best calibration guide for these new display out there. Apple has change the display paradigm. Setting the reference to the value that you want is the best way to go.

Hi Art, would you recommend a SpyderX Elite + Spyder USB for Benq monitors or Apple monitors? Or is X-Rite the optimum. Do I even need to have one of these if I don't intend to print?

Hi Art !, I followed your step by step guide to calibrate (Device - Calibrite Pro Plus) my Studio Display. I encountered this problem: Finished the calibration of the monitor with color profile P3 GB_LED L100. After calibrating the monitor I did a test by googling this site, Test Page - Wide Gamut. Now I can't see pictures in P3 mode. By resetting the Apple P3 color profile, I can see the visible elements in P3 mode on the TEST page. why this? it is as if after having done the calibration the color space has become smaller.

@ArtIsRight 2 года назад

There are variables and factors that can effect this including Browser. I would check your icc profile in color Sync utility and compare it with P3 to see the gamut variation.

@paolo.arcangeli 2 года назад

@@ArtIsRight hello Art!, I created a shared folder of Google Drive where I inserted the pre-calibration and post-calibration comparison screenshots. I was noticing one thing, Google Chrome does not natively support .ICC profiles, you have to force display in browser applications to read a DCI P3 color space on Chrome. With Safari I can see all objects in DCI P3. That said, the post calibration profile appears to be smaller than the factory one. I await your news, thanks

@ArtIsRight 2 года назад

I got the screen shot, I would recommend that you edit the previous comment and omit the google drive link for privacy and security. So a few things. What is thought of as the before icc profile is not a before icc profile, it is just a dummy profile that shows full gamut of P3 Color space. The post calibration profile would be smaller that is correct because that is based on your display output and these can output about 98% P3, which is where that variation comes from. So you can use the before profile but that won't help much because the panel itself can't show the entire gamut. Hope the helps

It is not the software version but rather the device you are using, Spectrophotometer does not need to identify backlight type for calibration. That is why you are not seeing it.

@RobOutlaw Год назад

@@ArtIsRight thanks for the response, curious though as to why a spectrophotometer does not need to identify a backlight type while a colorimeter does. BTW your instructional videos are excellent, thanks for providing this information.

@ArtIsRight Год назад

So think of spectro sitting at the top of the device list, the sensor inside the spectro measure light as is in a way that it does not need the backlight model. The reason why colorimeter needs the back light type is that the sensor on the colorimeter is in a way trained to match the measurement model that was created by a spectrophotometer or color radio meter for the respective display type, i.e. the spectral output which colorimeter cannot measure, while spectro can. Hope this helps

Yes measure the brightness by going through the fine-tune calibration step to get the white patch. You can fine tune display A and calibrate it. From there measure the white point of display B and use that to enter the first ROW measured value, then do another white point measurement on Display A again and use the result there to enter in for the Display B reference value 2nd ROW. See how that looks and then run the calibration and see how that looks. Keep me posted.

So, I did an Update on my Calibrite Display Plus HL. It is now running 1.2.8. I cannot get any of the screens that I must have been able to get before on the first calibration of the Studio. No White point calibration is offered. It goes straight into “Measurement” I do not get any of the Profile screens comparing the P3, RGB profile to the one measured. It does not use the new profile created. I leave for the UK for 6 months and have another Studio in the UK to calibrate, I am hugely disappointed with this product. The first calibration was brilliant but as with all calibrations, they slip with time, this one has. I cannot get the new profile (used 481 patches with good results using the previous preset) to replace the first one that I did in late December. Not sure what is wrong. Was it the Update?

@ArtIsRight 2 года назад

Lot of issues with using the Spyder for lots of technical questions. First, the recommendation on how to calibrate new apple displays from Spyder is just plain wrong, the are suggesting the old method of calibration, which these display have new sophisticated method of choosing a mode. So not using it is missing the point. Secondly Spyder Devices can't technically calibrate miniLED well because it uses a new spectral - matrix calibration data. Spyder matrix data is stored on the device and it is non upgradable, so you have to update to a new Spyder device to calibrate it properly. Calibrite on the other hand stores these data on the software, hence i1Display Pro aka colorchecker display pro has not needed an update on the hardware for more than a decade now and still works just fine because software has constantly been upgraded to accommodate for new displays. Also another big argument for buying a Calibrite device vs Spyder.

You can use the display that you have to do color work. Just have to calibrate it. Also you just have to know your display color gamut limitation. I showed this in the video, you can see that Apple displays, though good, are P3 gamut and you can see that P3 only covers about 84% Adobe RGB gamut.

Nothing is done to the display firmware, in fact all of the process is as apple described and allowed to do in the OS and display without using any hack. This sounds like a firmware bug and hopefully it is one that Apple will fix sooner rather than later.

Got cha, the thing you have to remember is that these hardware configuration are done based on spectral data from display that uses the backlight tech as training models. And even though ASD might be using the WLED, the models that X-Rite has does not necessary include ASD because it is so new. And display backlight tech is one thing but when you combined that with the LCD panel itself, these are variables that can make the result varies from the standard training model and this is the reason why many times they don't work as well even thought the display tech matches. Most of the time, X-Rite would just add support for new backlight tech but the don't necessary go back to modified and append the spectral information of backlight tech they have already made.
