You know that once you calibrate you have to recalibrate every few months, right? It's not just set it and forget it.

What happens in the time between those months?

Screen color shifts over time?

Yep. Newer monitors you can get away with a few months without calibrating but as they get older they tend to shift colors often.

I'm not sure if what I've now learned is a blessing or a curse. Regardless thank you.

No prob! It’s a great investment, especially if you’re doing high end photo or video work

I have one, and have to admit it’s worth the investment. I should be better about making sure I redo calibrations every so often. Even though the software reminds me. I use mine for photo work.

And with that I have two new monitors I’m going to go calibrate now…
