default setting for MacPro Display

I would like to return to the factory default settings for my display/monitor (Cinema HD) that came with our Mac PRo. Does anyone know which profile that is in the system prefs> displays> color?

I am trying to calibrate my monitor because the colors are not quite right and the illumination is throwing everything off. I use a Color Munki to calibrate and it says to start with the default settings, but I can't determine which one that is.

these monitors are so bright that I do turn down the brightness to 80. Any other suggestions, short of getting a better monitor? One I'd like for photography is going to be more than $1500.

MacPro, MacBookPro, Mac OS X (10.5.8)

Hi-

Welcome to Discussions!

By default, the name of the default profile is "Cinema HD".

You can open the *Display Calibrator Assistant*, turn off *Expert Mode*, and select *Standard Gamma* and Native white point to return to default settings.
