MacBook Pro 9C84 vs 9c85

This is a common problem with monitors, and it is not exclusive to Apple computers. That's why if you're working with photography, it's always a nice practice to calibrate your monitor. Different makers have different color profile or whatever they call it.

I use a Spyder to calibrate my monitor. If you don't have this, use the one built-in in your Mac.

So it's not really big deal 🙂 It's just like buying an audio system or hometheater where you would need to tweak and calibrate it to your liking.

The default gamma setting on Macs is 1.8, which always makes things look a bit lighter. I prefer a gamma setting of 2.2 with a colour temp of 65k. Looks so much richer than 1.8 gamma

Likewise, I use to manually set that for my friends who do not have a Spyder:

Gamma 2.2
Luminance value of 6500K

The right background (on the last picture) is just a fake, I tested color.. I have FEFEFE or FFFFFF (that's white) on a big part of the sky, so it can't be blue..

So i think that other picture are fake too (eg. differents display settings between the both)
