help Calibrite ColorChecker Display FAQ
How does the Calibrite ColorChecker Display connect to my computer?
This portable reference monitor connects to your computer using standard video interfaces like HDMI or DisplayPort. You must ensure your system recognizes it as a secondary display to properly perform side-by-side color matching.
Is the ColorChecker Display large enough to use as a main photo editing screen?
No, the ColorChecker Display is intended to be a highly accurate, portable secondary monitor rather than a primary workstation display. It is perfect for checking immediate color shifts but lacks the physical screen real estate needed for heavy timeline editing.
Do I need to purchase a separate colorimeter to calibrate this monitor?
Actually, the ColorChecker Display is designed to act as the reference itself, ensuring your main screen matches a known color profile. However, ensuring the ColorChecker Display itself remains accurate often requires pairing it with X-Rite or Calibrite colorimeter hardware.
Can I use this monitor for live color grading during a video shoot?
Yes, its portable nature makes it an excellent tool for DITs (Digital Imaging Technicians) to use on set for live color grading. You can mount it to a stand and feed it a clean signal from your cinema camera to ensure exposure and white balance are accurate.
