Verifying monitor brightness, gamma, and color
Making adjustments to your images on screen works best with a monitor that displays color consistently.
Over time the characteristics of your monitor change, so check your monitor’s performance periodically.
Consult your monitor documentation and perform calibration adjustments as recommended by the
manufacturer.
You can then verify monitor output from within SIGMA Photo Pro by selecting
Tools > Monitor
Verification…
from the Main Window
.
The charts in this dialog box are for verification of color neutrality and gamma only. Use your monitor’s
adjustment controls as specified in the manufacturer’s documentation to make any adjustments.
Using a pre-existing monitor
profile
For information regarding monitor
profiles, consult the documentation
for your monitor, after-market
profiling software, or operating
system.
Choosing the best monitor
resolution for your screen size
SIGMA Photo Pro is designed to fit
on a monitor with a screen resolution
of 800x600, however the viewable
area for images and thumbnails is not
maximized at this small screen size. A
screen resolution of 1024x768 or
greater offers the most flexibility for
viewing and processing images. You
can then resize the Main or Review
Windows, resize the Thumbnail Pane
within the Main Window, or move the
windows anywhere on the desktop.
