D 5<br />

This is the staqndard illuminant for the manufacturing in-<br />

dustries (automotive, textile etc.), office and video produc-<br />

tion.<br />

If you are in one of these trades, you should calibrate your<br />

monitor to D65.<br />

Other D(aylight white point)<br />

For specific purposes it may be advisable to calibrate to a<br />

different daylight white point. Enter the full correlated color<br />

temperature here (e.g. 7500)<br />

Monitor’s native<br />

Each monitor has it’s own, typical white point, that is dis-<br />

played when all 3 channels, R, G and B (Gains) are set to max.<br />

With this setting he luminance and gamut of the monitor<br />

are at their maximum.<br />

„Monitor’s native“ is not recommended for color critical<br />

work in an ICC workflow. This setting may be useful for lap-<br />

top monitors if their luminance is inadequate after calibrat-<br />

ing them to D50.<br />

Blackbody temperature<br />

As described earlier, an illuminant can be characterized with<br />

its correlated color temperature. D50 for example has an<br />

approximate color temperature of 5000K, but the blackbody<br />

radiator has a different spectral distribution at 5000K.
