How To Calibrate Mac Screen For Photo Editing
Lately, it appeared to me that a laptop would be a nice addition to my desktop, as it would allow me to perform some light photo editing while on the go. Being a PC user I intended to buy a Dell XPS, but its auto-brightness ' feature' forbids to calibrate its screen properly.
Lost right click on mouse. • Double-click the most recently saved AutoRecover file, or select the file and click Open. • Type AutoRecover or type a keyword or phrase in the Spotlight Search box in the top-right corner of the Open dialog. If the file you want is grayed-out, choose All Files in the Enable pop-up menu, which allows you to open any file type. If you did a keyword or phrase search, use the Last Opened information to help you choose a likely file to open.
So here I am, looking to buy my first Apple machine in decades (I owned an AppleII and a Mac Classic)! A Macbook pro 13'. It will also be my very first laptop! As I know, laptop screen are not as good as good desktop monitor. But I also know they made great progress lately. So here is my question: Is the MacBook Pro's screen good enough (accurate) for photo editing? I don't intend to plug it to an external screen, but I will calibrate it using an X-Rite i1.
In Windows, the display calibration tool is in the Display Control Panel, and in Mac OS, if you open the Display System Preferences and click the Color tab, you'll see the button to calibrate. If you are a photographer or doing any editing involving colour - you really ought to properly calibrate your monitor. Here I show the FULL process to calibrate using a Spyder 4, and explain about.

I am using a mid-2009 Macbook Pro and it has worked well for me. I print and get nice prints with the combination. My prints match my monitor. As long as you ensure your prints match what you see on the screen, all is good. Pixinn wrote: Hi!

So here is my question: Is the MacBook Pro's screen good enough (accurate) for photo editing? I don't intend to plug it to an external screen, but I will calibrate it using an X-Rite i1. The Retina display on my 13' MacBook Pro is quite good and calibrates well. But I don't have enough room on it to show an image plus all the palettes and sliders and stuff that Lightroom and Photoshop use.
I always edit with the image on a calibrated external screen and leave all the menu junk on the laptop screen. If you can somehow cram everything you need on a 13' screen and still see the image, then the MacBook Pro is more than adequate in terms of color.

Retina MacBook Pros all have IPS screens, and, as far as I know, decent coverage of the sRGB (not aRGB) color space. If you can adjust brightness on them sufficiently, I would think that they would be some of the best laptops in the world for a photo editing task. The non-Retina machine has a TN screen. It's pretty decent for a TN screen, and possibly could be good enough.
