Display technology type for iMac 21.5 (mid 2010)
I need to calibrate my display for some photo editing. I'm using the i1Display Pro from x-rite. One of the inputs I need to make is the "Display Technology Type". My choices are:
"Generic: Choose this one if you really don't know what type of display you have. Needless to say, this is not preferable.
CCFL: This basically means " not LED". Most older LCD screens will be CCFL, but newer ones are likely to be LED instead.
Wide Gamut CCFL: If you bought a wide-gamut screen, you'll remember, because your wallet is probably still hurting. Most laptop and Mac screens are normal gamut, but check your paperwork if you're not sure. (Please don't mix up wide gamut with wide format. Wide format screens are ... y'know, wide. 16:9 shape, or whatever. "Wide Gamut" refers to the range of colours they can show. If the salesman boasted to you about a "110% gamut" or "Adobe RGB gamut" screen, it means wide-gamut.)
White LED: This is the most common type of modern screens. If you know your screen is LED, it's almost certainly white LED.
RGB LED / OLED / Plasma / RG Phosphor: I'm not aware of many monitors using these technologies right now, but again, check your screen's specs carefully."
System report returns:
Display Type: LCD
Resolution: 1920 x 1080
Pixel Depth: 32-Bit Color (ARGB8888)
Main Display: Yes
Mirror: Off
Online: Yes
Built-In: Yes
Connection Type: DisplayPort
BUT, if I look at the technical specs on Apple.com, I find:
21.5-inch (viewable) LED-backlit glossy 16:9 widescreen TFT active-matrix display; 1920 by 1080 pixels; millions of colors; IPS technology
I'm baffled (and pretty ignorant about this stuff!) Any help would be appreciated.
